Welcome to Celtic Auston Trusty

Talking about passing the ball up the park, obviously he'll no have 100% success rate at it but majority of the time it's finding a man. He's also made the effort to do it quicker this season, after a lot of criticism last year of being too ponderous.

 

I presumed it was a tactical move: partly to cover for gaps Taylor was leaving (because Scales is a former LB); partly because he tends to bring the ball out more than Trusty does.

Worked on both counts - albeit we shouldn’t have to change CBs just to cover the LB position when we have a player on the park who is allegedly a LB.

 

Think it was his debut in the fixture, so that's taken into consideration. Didn't think he did much wrong but Scales brought the much needed intensity.. Our CBs need to drive into the space at times and Scales does that better.
