Was very impressed with us yesterday for the majority of the game we played some excellent stuff. Coulibally makes a major difference to us the boy is class and possibly the best box to box midfielder we've had since stevie Davis. Signing him should be our number one priority next season without question but I think we'll struggle to afford him. Really starting to get excited about Middleton the boy is going to be class and although Grezda didn't get long yesterday you can tell he's going to be a player. Although the Celtic game was a setback I still believe if we can keep everybody fit and Morelos and lafferty can keep can banging them in we've got a descent chance this seasonðŸ‘ðŸ¼.

Agree JGG1. Coullibally looks immense and a rock in midfield and will be key on Thursday particularly with Jack unfit. The boy Middelton reminds me of a young Bud Johnston and good to see him get some decent game time yesterday.

Bankie, i agree with your comparison between our young winger glenn middleton and our legendary winger, wullie 'bud' johnston! Had the privilege of watching wee bud and he was a terrific winger! Glenn middleton has some similar traits, to bud and will have a very good future in the game, as far as i'm concerned!

The famous SuperCoop "kiss of death". Poor Middleton will be playing for Morton now in a couple of seasons 🤣😉.

Agreed, Snell, for starters he's not at all like my good friend Willie Johnston, who could play inside, outside and was a lot more two-footed and had a better injection of pace. For large chunks of his career Bud played more as a modern day second striker and was never really a touchline winger. Look at his goals in Barcelona. In all he scored 90 goals for Rangers in just over 200 games, so if Middleton can do that then he will be comparable to Johnston.

Disagree with you dutycalls. If you've carefully watched middleton when he's came on as a sub for us, he can play outside and come inside beating his man! Middleton also has a terrific injection of pace, so i honestly don't think you have been watching young middleton thoroughly mate!

Think the boy is just 18 and looks a terrific prospect. Interesting to hear SG’s comments on Middleton after match yesterday, clearly thinks highly of the lad. Also seems to have good values and be a really good lad, an area where “Bud†could have been better.

Been very impressed with Middleton we've got a class wee player on our hands, a winger of days gone past nd these modern full backs will struggle to deal with him.
