    Use of the ball was pretty poor today but not the end of the world.

    Great goal, can't help but feels he's not a left back. No pace at all. Would like to see him centrally, either in defence or sitting mid as he's got a great range of passes

    I think Taylor is the tidier player, but Scales has things in his locker that Taylor dosen't have.

    He does look a bit awkward in the LB position tbh.

    He’s be a disaster centrally trying to play out.

    He’s awful trying to build up out wide never mind centrally…

    He'll need to develop a lot to be a regular for Ange.

    Very raw, but strikes me as someone very eager to learn and someone who we could see improve dramatically under Ange.

    Looks like Andrew Marr before he had a stroke.

    Crosses like Andrew Marr after he had a stroke.

    Good game and goal yesterday, but - I even said it before he signed - there’s no way the lad looks like a left-back.

    I’d prefer to see him as backup for the DM role than McCarthy tbh.

    I don't really rate him tbh, I think he does a few things well which overlook the basics he does poorly. A couple of good crosses or long range shots per game, but basic passing out isn't up to scratch and not great defensively. Needs a lot of work, but it's not out of the question.

    Thought he was poor apart from the goal! Him and Mikey were clueless and didn't know where each other were, and too change this they then started getting to close to each other and were literally running into one another...

    I'm not a fan at all, mate. He has the occasional good cross but apart from that he offers * all. Terrible on the ball.

    Fact he's 2nd choice to 1 of the worst left backs we've had in last 20 years tells you all need to know about him

    Fair play to the lad, much better second half against their best player.

    Has good attributes and a good attitude, I like him.
