    A fantastic header of the ball and all round powerhouse in defense.

    Anybody else notice he’s a demon with the high ball duels now? Always felt he struggled a bit with that aspect

    He was better tonight but CCV has been our best player in pretty much most games and was imperious at the weekend. Scales has had a superb start to the season and is definitely running him close !

    Brilliant tonight. I'm usually tearing my hair out about him being indecisive and slow with his passing, be he move the ball nice and quick tonight. Deserved to get MoTM.

    CCV is a better player than he has shown this season and I actually think (against most on here) that Scales had a very mixed first couple of games; but he's been better than CCV this season quite comfortably.

    Scales deserves a lot of credit. I always thought he could do it (as he showed last autumn); but I wasn't necessarily convinced that he would do it.

    I'd say Scales has been the better player this season, so far. Great type of competition to have.

    The ginger Maldini, more like his form at the start of last season he’s been brilliant.

    Seen him saying ‘same again’ when Arne was taking a free kick after his goal.

    He could honestly just be the pal you grew up playing football with in Castlemilk or something like that. One of us from another land.

    I'm fully on board the Scales train now! Trusty is going to have some job ahead of him to get game time.
    Boys been superb so far this season.

    Trusty is * at this rate.

    Scales was always someone I thought we need replacing.

    But * me, how the * can we argue this much longer if he continues to put in shifts like that.

    What a guy, the mental strength he has is incredible

    This version of Scales is better than Starfelt

    He’s certainly raised his game a level, and the instructions to release the ball quicker have helped immensely. A few stray passes aside he’s not put a foot wrong so far this season.

    Think with ccv toe, he'll be getting plenty games in between Europe to prove himself.

    Then once we're qaulfiied with 4 games spare he can have a shot

    Can't fault his start to the season, he's been excellent..

    Tougher tests lie ahead for the left side of our defence tho.

    He’s upped his game once again, even when we have spent big on another centre half. It’s his place to lose.
