    Really pleased with the big man..

    Good saves, coming for crosses and taking with ease(how long ago did we see them) and overall gane, kicking was pretty good for the most part..

    One little blip with virgil but that understanding.comes with games together..

    Looked classy tonight - no new keeper needed on that evidence.

    Wasnt under too much pressure tonight bt that clean sheet will do him the world of good I have no doubt that if he stays fit he could be Celtic no1 for the next half decade.

    Was good to see him come off his line and collect the ball, not something I have been used to watching in the last few years. When he ran out of his box to get the ball Van Dijk put out i shat the bed but all round he played well. Also good to see he has a good level head on him like when that idiot booted the ball at his stomach there was almost no reaction from him... imagine if that had happened to Boruc haha!

    If he can stay fit we will have won a watch.

    Time will tell.

    Did well.

    Bargain tbh if he can stay fit. He will throw in the odd blunder right enough which he's prone to but overall a decent replacement of Forster.

    Never in doubt the guys a class act and can command his defence too. I noticed a bit of mutal appreciation going on between Virgil and Gordon.

    He's been doing punditry and analysis while he was out injured which will have probably helped with his understanding of the game unless he was taking advice from Pat Nevin. He seems quite intelligent and good to hear he was vocal tonight and using his experience to help organise the defence.

    I watched him in the youth team against Spurs a few weeks back and he conceded 6, none of them were particularly his fault, but I thought that might have knocked his confidence, but clearly not after tonight, great to keep a clean sheet.

    Couldn't believe it when he came off his line to punch a ball away, so unused to that!

    Thought he did as well as he could have, got a good feeling about him.

    Loved the way he took a couple of crosses in amounst bodies with ease tonight. Has always been class, hopefully he stays fit and if so I have no doubts this will be an absolute steal of a signing.

    Very Happy about Gordy, looks just as good as he did before his injuries. He could be the number 1 for a good few years if hes turned the corner on all his injurys. He was a lot more confident than I was expecting him to be.
