    Has all the physical attributes you would want in a full back, and his technical ability doesn't let him down at all.

    Just completely owns his side of the pitch.

    Absolutely bang on. Had the thought floating around my head a few times recently about who will take over from Cal, but if AJ is still here at that point there's not even a debate.

    This guy is a * machine. So reliable.

    Sitting in the dressing room before the game, you’d want this mad * beside you.

    Top quality player.

    Our scouts mission should be to find a left sided version of him.

    Watching the game back, definitely looked like he struggled final 5 mins before coming off. Still need to manage his fitness.

    He's genuinely top class. I think he could play for any team and not look out of place.

    Hopefully we can hang onto him for a while

    He really is unbelievable. Praying he's not injured.

    One of the most complete right backs i can remember at us..

    Really quick
    Attacking
    Solid as *
    Great 1 v 1
    Good on the ball
    Great personality on and off the pitch

    They don't know how to play him at all......and he's probably only at about 70/80% fitness..

    Rodgers spoke really highly of him after the game. Can tell he really likes him.

    He's a cool guy.

    Easy to see why he IMHO is already firmly one of our best and most important players.

    It's mad he's by far the best all round right back in Scotland but the media barely mention him cos he's no stat padding with penalties.

    I’m glad, keep him under the radar and he can stay for longer. Without a doubt he’s going to the top.

    Guys unreal.

    Plays with heart and passion and is * good to boot.


    He keeps this sort of performances up in Europe, we will struggle to keep him long term.

    Fast
    Strong
    Good with the ball
    Excellent going forward
    Excellent defensively
    Excellent passing

    He literally has it all, honestly one of the most complete fullbacks I've seen at Celtic.

    He's top quality. Transforms us down that side, both going forward and defensively.

    Should be doing our level best to find a left sided version of him.
