    Nouble gives even the strongest defenders in the league a battle tbf, might be the only player I've seen out muscle CCV, though big Cam got him back a few times mind :giggle1:

    Thought he was poor today, defensively and never really got forward. Rattled by the physicality but also got out played a number of times and some rash tackles. Lagerbiekle helped him out a couple of times.

    Not sure about the artificial pitch question, but got to think he's played on plenty in Canada, although probably of much higher quality.

    The guy he was up against was huge though. But also had a bit of skill about him at times. Still poorest game so far I'd say. Needs to watch his tackles too, thought he was going to get sent off early on at one point.

    His first touch and passing on a few occasions were uncharacteristically poor today..

    Few contributed going forwards to be fair. But does need to up his game in that regard.

    Wasn't at his best today, but he's a proper right back.

    He had an ineffective Yang and a teammate in Forrest that shouldn’t be anywhere near the 11 at this stage in his career in front of him the entire game.

    Either Yang needs to step up or we get one of the other fit wingers out right.

    A few papers saying the reason Ralston got a new contract is that Johnson is off at the summer so don't know if there's anything in that .

    Didn’t look like he was moving freely 1st half but could’ve been imagining it.

    He's talking pish, Frank McAvennie came out and said we signed Ralston to a long term deal because he thinks Johnston will leave next summer.

    Not been himself since his injury, in fact he’s looked a shadow of his former self. If he is carrying a knock we should stop him going on international duty.

    He was more than fine prior to the Motherwell game.

    Needs to offer something going forwards in these games. Looked uncomfortable all night and went missing a couple of times.

    I know goalscoring isn’t his thing but he really had to hit the target of that chance after the freekick. Hit the target and it’s likely a goal as their keeper was still scrambling about.

    First half he struggled with the pace and mobility of their boy out wide left second half he seemed to have the measure of him.
