    Difficult game to get dropped straight in and it showed first half, but he absolutely grew into the game and was fine second half. Some of his passing is first class.

    Not making excuses for him but some of his play really did look down to being rusty through lack of game time. Still played a couple of excellent defense splitting through balls that Abada made a * of.

    dunno why he couldn't have made some sub appearances if we're going to rotate our full backs then they need game time, both him and bernabei looked way off it.

    He grew into the game, he was rusty aye that's not surprising he was just back and he usually needs a warm up to get back to it, showed some great attacking and his defending in the 2nd half was better too even though there was less of it.

    First half was a horror show, poor defensively and his passing was dreadful. Second half was a big improvement. Put it down to him being rusty but he’s miles off AJ.

    He had a stinker, not helped by the crowd getting on his back whatsoever.

    His first game in a long time, need a bit of slack cut.

    Was expecting a 'disgraceful performance, PUNT' type comment from you. Wee Berna was miles better than him the night.

    A tad ropey initially, gave away many silly cheap fouls but overall, put in a decent shift, highlighted by a few awesome killer passes.

    At least Ralston is always looking to play kyogo in when he gets a chance, big game to come back into and he didn't shy away.

    Ralston hopefully will be played again some time soon. Overusing any player (even Johnston) risks injuries, and I'd rather have an up-to-speed Tony sharing the work load.

    Since he's been getting a regular run he's always been the type who needs a few games in a row before getting fully upto speed. Not the type who can just be thrown in IMO.

    He will be fine. He's already surpassed any expectations I had of him as a celtic player. Which was pretty much zero.

    Poor Tony is *. Ange has found an actual clone of him and JJ.

    As long as the lad is happy being back up I’m happy to keep him. Might be better for his development and overall happiness to move on. He’s a good player.
