I posted about barkas but I really should have posted about the positives, I didn't expect a performance so I was pleasantly surprised, would love to see us going with Murray and Welsh imagine them together after 100 odd games together but I know realistically it's to big a risk as we need some experience, thought soro was outstanding as was calmac and even Christie put in a shift, Abada looks sharp love that he's only 19 leaves so much room for improvement, we can't go with ralston and Taylor as our fullbacks they don't offer enough, not sayin they were bad but you can utilise fullbacks as serious weapons and they don't have the quality to be dangerous week in week out.

Fully agree, I didn’t really know what to expect from tonight but was pleasantly surprised. I thought we were excellent in spells.
New keeper and full backs and we should be good.

I really thought the back 4 showed huge potential. Maybe not all playing every game as a four but youth can grow. They didn't look a bad unit. I'd agree Ralston isn't first team but we have had worse and less committed. Welshy was certainly putting it about.

Good points, IMO we need a further 5 defenders in this window (assuming Starfelt is a done deal) - GK, LB, x2 RB, CB and x2 Strikers (Nisbet + another) .

Welsh, Murray and the young Norwegian CB should get SPL and Cup game time to gain experience.

Ralston is not Celtic class, Taylor is a back up.

I was happy with the performance tonight and we still have a good chance of progression.
After the first 10 minutes, we slowly started to take control of the game.
Wee Forrest will make the difference next week.

DRB it’s stating the obvious about barkas and biton and the points regarding them have already been made on different posts hence why I never mentioned them, I personally don’t like slating Taylor as he’s from my town and I know his family and he usually plays solidly enough but if anges tactics include flying fullbacks who create as much as your playmaker then he can’t be our LB unfortunately, he’s always a 6-7 outa 10 typa player but personally I think that’s his ceiling.
