    Delighted to have the big man. Looks to have settled in straight away and can just tell he is a leader

    looked comfortable other than that one moment where is was offside anyway. Excellent that he got on the scoresheet

    Grew into the gameI thought, dodgy to start off with but from about 30 minutes onwards he won everything, few blocks, clearances and in the end probably headered a good 5 things out the box and got a goal. You actually fancied him to score another goal if we got more set pieces near the end as he was winning headers for fun in the 2nd half.

    The main thing for me is he allows us to play with a back 3.

    Defensively I think we still have work to do, mainly because I don’t think the issue is with the defence.

    Good performance from him today and good to see him deliver the goods in terms of attacking threat from set pieces

    Aye ropey for that McKay offside challenge but grew in to the game well..

    Passing was on point
    Heading was outstanding
    Finish was beast mode
    Looked to be doing a lot of talking..

    Very good signs here..

    You could lob a cinder block at him and he’d head it. Delighted with that debut.

    Wasn’t the McKay chance from a goal kick as well? Didn’t think there was a flick on so way confused by the offside flag.

    Nah he did but I was really concentrating on the McKay chance. Then they showed the reply once and it looked like it was their goal kick and didn’t see a flick on.

    Though it must’ve been either a free kick or the goalie just playing out the way they never went back to it.

    You could see today we have been crying out for a player like him. Jullien may have been given the armband when Broony came off but it was very obvious who was taking control of the back line. Its not just his playing ability but his characteristics that are going to give the whole team a massive lift. A much needed and impressive signing.

    If he builds on from today, he'll be an absolute beast for us.

    Easily man of the match.

    Pushed over Jullien over to get his goal. Tells you a lot about both. One is soft and one has the desire to get onto everything.
