There was just one change to the Celtic side that lost to Hibs but what an impact Tony Ralston made in the 3-0 win over Motherwell.

A spell on loan at Dundee United last season gave him the game time that he required but that is exactly what has been missing this season. Game Time.

When Mikael Lustig has been missing Cristian Gamboa and Kris Ajer have been tried with Ralston left kicking his heels on the sidelines.

On Sunday at Easter Road Ralston watched from the bench as Celtic slumped to a 2-0 defeat with a system that no-one appeared comfortable in.

Last night a back four reappeared with Ralston looking completely at home playing at right-back.

His goal was the obvious highlight but defensively he was sound without being spectacular, exactly what is needed.

Having played against Neymar in the Champions League going to Ibrox and Pittodrie shouldn’t faze Ralston, the next three matches could go a long way to shaping his Celtic future.
