Can he take a bloody throw in????
Get him in then..
That's something that does my head in, we seemed to have rid ourselves under Ange of having a player ( often Ralston and not his fault) standing waiting for someone to show and recieve the ball. The number of times Ralston has been forced into a hopeful throw that we lose possession from is ridiculous.
Those high looping throw ins , they're just asking to be challenged and becomes a 50/50 from our possession when we should have at least 3 options showing, making runs but instead we have Ralston or another waiting, waiting for someone to show for the ball and the crowd gets impatient, it's schoolboy football and unacceptable.
I hope not to see this again this hopeful throw , the best sides very rarely lose possession from a throw in, players recieve the ball , not from above but to feet or chest with the minimum of space and still recieve and control the ball.
Unacceptable to see something I was taught in school football not to do take place at this level.
On scales , he's shown he can defend but we require more than that from our defenders. Attack starts from defence and that seems to be Scales ' problem, the link in build up, certainly v St Johnstone at least.
He's never had a run at Celtic so it's tough to judge.
For now he deserves to start against Dundee but I do think he will be relegated down the order when our absentees return.
Grateful for having him especially in that game but I don't think he will keep the jersey unfortunately he's a good squad player but not sure he'll get the minutes he wants at Celtic, Rodgers more or less said it himself before he was left without a choice.
