Tillman

[Inigo 32,534]

Old fashioned kinda number ten rather than your stock fitbaw athlete. Love to see it tbh..

We should 100% be backing him, not fucking hounding him. Could be a very good player given a bit of patience.

[King Jela 20,405]

No wonder he was fucked at the end. 

I usually complain about how slow on the ball he is but there was none of that today. 

[PromDeAnglais 5,552]

There's a player there. No doubt about it. 

I'm thinking Aribo and a few others (Bassey) didn't come on strong in their first season, difference is, we need to decide whether he's worth the buyout in the summer. He could become a very good player. 

[Malkytfp1 18,618]

Nobody in our team takes the ball into feet like he does with back to goal and turns. He was excellent today. Faded a little bit and was blowing out his arse at the end.

[ForeverAndEver 71,666]

Best player on the park imo

[BookWorm 4,157]

The most naturally talented footballer we have had in a while.

[bluenoz 30,957]

There's always been a player there in Tillman.

The criticism of both young American loanees has been way OTT.

The debate lies in whether they are worth the asking price.

Sands was very good today also.

At times he looked excellent and at times I was scratching my head....personally thought Lundstram was our best player....a wee mention to Sakala....if ever their was another Ted tin man Mcminn then wee fashion is him

Lowry?

He is brilliant though, in flashes obviously as he's still not very experienced yet but there's a reason he was at Bayern even as a prospect.

I don't think they are worth 10m as the rumoured fees total, whether or not it's something we can renegotiate at the time then maybe.

The big stick for me is this supposed buyback clause Bayern have if we sign Tillman, puts a ceiling on what we could sell him for once he's developed.

[GetToTheChoppa 6,873]

He's only 20, played not much more than 20 professional games, and isn't that long back from a ruptured ACL.

He'll get better and better imo.

[Inigo 32,534]

You can almost guarantee that his style will be used to criticise him whenever things are going wrong. Instead of seeing it as n naturally languid style, which is what it is really, it'll become lazy.

Sometimes drifting around the pitch looking for space benefits players, but it does look lazy if your team aren't getting on the ball much or finding you.

Pretty convinced he'll be a right good player. I don't think he's as work shy as made out, he's just young and has to understand that high level football needs a wee bit more intensity and concentration at times. He showed signs of understanding that today. If we, the club AND fans I mean, help him out a bit he'll get there, I think.

I had no idea Tillman ruptured his ACL. Even more impressive.

[bluenoz 30,957]

Can't wait to hear @falkirkNS reaction on lazy Tillman when he gets out of the Orange Lodge.

Lundstram’s best game in a long time. Vast majority were very good tbf

[BlueAvenger 10,310]

Fair play to him. He played much better today as did Sands and Lundstram 

[stuart1994 4,304]

Outstanding today, easily man of the match.

Was the same during the week but many were too precondition to be negative about him and others 

[SeparateEntityMyArse 53,815]

Much more like it from him today 

[WWTC 2,247]

He was much better today and seemed a yard sharper than usual which is really promising. He has to keep it up though as there’s no doubting his talent, but has looked lackadaisical at times which can be infuriating. We’ve seen so many players over the years with a similar demeanour and the frustrations always come from the same place; all the talent but cant be arsed using it. 
Hope he gets a decent run in the team and grows from this. 

[Creampuff 22,628]

He played well today, but he is massively lazy when rangers don’t have the ball.

Is it not a “first option” type clause rather than a fee related one? I think if its the later it might be a first in football. 

[Brackley Bluenose 4,479]

He’s got quite a languid style which makes him look like he doesn’t give a fuck at times and does him no favours but I think that’s just his style. Clearly a very good footballer. 

[AGM_72 3,650]

He was excellent today.
