    Has a lot to work on before he's good enough to be a first choice defender for us. Hopefully this loan does him some good.

    Think the move benefits him if it furthers his development which I'm sure it will. There's definitely a player there imo.

    Really think he should have been given a chance in the first team by now but guess this move gets him game time and experience which can only benefit him.

    Good luck Anthony.

    Well he was out injured there for a fair while so that didn't help. But this to me looks like a good move to give him valuable first team experience and game time heading into next season.

    Good move for him, he needs playing time and for years we starved good young talented players for game time and they where never given a chance.

    Ajer's loan move done him wonders and I hope young Tony comes back with game time under his belt and back for the first team next season

    Totally agree, there were a number of people writing Ajer off when he went to Killie and look how that turned out.

    Some time out of the spotlight getting regular football will hopefully work wonders for Ralston’s long term development.

    Think this would have been his breakthrough season if he hadn’t been hampered by injury.. makes sense to get some regular game time.

    We will be playing mostly a back 3 with Hendry on the right I would have thought..

    Yep. Been injured for a long time. We're playing a back 3. Have Lustig and most likely Hendry coming in so his chances will be limited for now..

    At a big club so this won't do him any harm. Only 19 as well..

    Agreed. The boys ridiculously over hyped - my thoughts are documented all over this forum.

    Like Armstrong, he's never a (credible) football player.

    I think the fact he started against PSG, makes people think he's ready to be a first team player.

    Have you spoke to Brendan personally about this or atleast put up a quote.

    Brendan has compared him to Danny McGrain.

    Must have something about him for BR to say that.

    Physical but raw. He needs to be given a run in the team domestically before I’ll make a proper judge on him. Good move for all parties.

    I think Brendan needs to calm down a bit there, yes players have been sent out and it has helped them progress. But this is a strange one given Lustig’s form and lack of competition. Unless Compper is going to be used there.

    Tony will get his chance next season.

    Nothing wrong with the loan.

    Do you genuinely think Armstrong wasn’t good last year? Cos that’s * mental
