    Thought he was excellent today. Looking good going forward, and more importantly, defending.

    Thought the same, easily best player again. Solid defensively and showed more composure than usual 2/3 times he beat players or stopped and turned and then passed it on instead of just playing it safe.

    Here's a young guy who has recently cemented his place in the first team, already you can see that he has pride in his performances, almost as if he's set himself a level and dosen't fall below it, really impressed with him, on and off the field.

    Some consistency for an 18 year old too, hes played about 20 odd games now near enough all starts and you'd say he rarely dips below a 7/10 performance. Probably the most consistent youngster I mind playing since Liam Miller.

    we have heard he is not physically strong or ready at times this season, for me he stands out in that department, and never pulls out of any 50/50 tackles,and even at that, he is hard and fair.

    He is small and doesn't look that strong but for some reason he dominates against everyone he plays physically, was even a point in the game today one of their big players tried to barge him as he was ushering the ball out for a goalkick and he barely moved :smiley-laughing002: he's like a young Scott Brown, absolute solid and fit as * for a smaller skinny guy.

    Wee man is amazing! He can time a tackle to perfection so I don't think he needs to be overly physical.

    What he lacks in physique, he more than makes up with technique, keeps his eye on the ball and reads the game very well, some players are built like a brick * house but canny kick their ain * !

    I don't think he's small or weak anyway, he's definitely getting physically bigger with the work he's putting in.

    This guy is pure * class. Seems to have his head screwed on. Every chance this boy will become one of the best players we have produced for a very long time. He seems to read the game very well too. Of course it is going to be another level when we go into Europe, but no reason he can't make the grade there. A wee bit of credit to Ronnie for smoothly getting him into the side on a weekly basis.

    He isn't weak whatsoever . He has strong , muscular legs and a strong core , you can see that by his build. Built like strong footballers of the 60's and 70's . Some people may be fooled by the fact he doesn't have disco muscles but he already has functional strength in the necessary places.

    He was probably our best player in Europe this season in the games he played, he played well against Fenerbahce and against Ajax at home.

    Not well as in well for a young player either, like people usually say like "the youngster done well" genuinely probably our best player in the games.

    If he was a 26 year old guy from Belgium signed for £2million and played to the standard he has hed have been a good signing, superb that he is just a youngster and cost nothing.

    Amazing to think he is only 18.

    Would love to see him here for a decade or so and go on to take the captaincy..would be a brilliant and rare story nowadays.

    Can't believe how overrated he is. Gives the ball away constantly and gets muscled off it any time I see him.
