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

Lundstrum was really vocal and animated today and motivating  different players at different times 

[Real Ranger 3,195]

He was excellent today when taking his age and lack of experience into account.

He’s got the makings of being a great player for us. His goal against Motherwell was top class and he gave it everything on the park today.

Good to see him back on form in his tracking back and winning possession some of the turns this lad has are superb .

A real door opener if he uses it more especially in the last third.

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. 

Nah, Chelsea did it with Nathan Ake - sold him for 20m with a 40m buy back inserted that they didn't exercise before city bought him.

Alvaro Morata left real Madrid for about 15m and they had a buy back for 23m too. They did buy him back obviously

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

Honestly think im watching a different game to people at times.

He was closing cunts down and tackling all game.

that comment from someone listening on the radio..at best

 

he was excellent and MOTM

Clearly has the ability but sometimes he looks like he’s away in his own wee world not even paying attention. It’s like a crisp packet caught in the wind has caught his attention.

Tillman should be starting as a 10 in every single SPFL game we play except against them at their dump

He has ability, he can go either direction and his dribbling is excellent - he just needs to do it in the right area of the park. He’s basically our new Aribo - took Aribo quite a while to work out how to play for us.

I would like him to be the 8 and be on the ball more as the 10 he can drift out the game, let’s keep him away from right wing!

Thought he was great today and people need to remember he has probably played more games for us this season than he has previously done in his career so he is going to be inconsistent.

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

Tillman alot better, still lacks awareness around him and pedestrian slow sometimes, sharp football head.

Still not worth 6 million.

Agreed with that yesterday, and he was much better, but hopefully that becomes a standard rather than an exception. I’d be amazed if you hadnt thought that about him in some of the games he’s played. 

[STEPPS BOY 74,200]

Talented lad but we need a lot more from him, especially goalscoring wise.

We already carry Kent, we can’t carry Our number 10/ playmaker too.

[JCDBigBear 10,830]

Yesterday he was much better.  He needs to give that performance in every game.  He can also be very lazy, he's not worth anywhere near £6 million and I wouldn't want him to play against the tims as he would be posted missing.   For that reason I wouldn't want to have him permanently.

[bluenoz 30,958]

Tillman does track back. He often takes possession from opposing players. Besides, a #10 shouldn't have to track back as much when we have two defensive midfielders in Sands & Lundstram. His darting runs into the box were phenomenal; that is what you want to see from a #10.

We finally have a creative player, yet some still find fault in him even when he plays well. He needs to be appreciated for the type of player he is.

He’s 20. He’s only going to get better mate.

Quite right for another million we could get another Kent.

Hes just no got a fight in him. Did he get schooled in  the US? Then move to germany?

No he was born and raised in Germany  , I'd be amazed if any player can go from bayern u15's to first team in around 5 year and not have any fight in them

I didnt know that.

Sands is starting to get the dig required here. Tillman looks like he will never adjust to it.

So after about a year, you think Sands in now only beginning to show signs of having the 'dig' required.

But after about 3 months, it's clear to you that Tillman will never have it.

Hmm....

[bluenoz 30,958]

When Kamara first came to us, he would lose possession in dangerous areas. Eventually, he cleaned that part of his game.

Tillman is similar. He tries to do a little too much in the wrong parts of the pitch. When he learns to move the ball quicker in those spots, the kid is going to turn into a fantastic player. Can't wait to see him at the WC.
