    As a RB? At this point, just, Lustig.

    I get the feeling they'll both be here for a long time though and Matthews will develop into a top top player. We may even mould him into a full-on forward player a la Bale. I think Lennon's been trying that.

    I could not stick a * paper between them. At first I thought Matthews was slightly better going forward and Lustig slightly better at the back but Lustig has got a * hot cross on him and Matthews is absolutely rock solid and has a knack of being in the right place at the right time.

    I would prefer we played them both as that would give us a * hot right hand side.

    Lustig is better looking, but Matthews is a better singer. So hard to choose.

    I canny decide. However Matthews is the more intricate dribbler so he shades it by a bawhair.

    I think we need both in the side. Lustig at centre-half or Matthews at left-back. Two of our best players & not much between them.

    This will probably end up a very close poll. I think we're lucky to have 2 great right back's at the same time.

    If pushed for the spot I think I'd slightly edge towards Lustig.

    I'm not surprised its neck and neck.

    Two very talented footballers.

    Exactly.

    Both really good players. If pushed to pick I'd probably edge towards Lustig.

    Just to balance my choice up, I'd have Matthews in ahead of Forrest wide right.

    They are both great. Lustig just edges it due to his obvious love of Celtic.

    Total 124 games 5 goals 10 assists

    Theyre the competitions I can find starts for. Obviously Matthews stats are a lot worse as Lustigs 5 years older than him and more experienced. Matthews will get better and better being only 21.
