Admittedly Raldo looks out of his depth, but he’s not been as bad as he’s been portrayed.

Tony Ralston is in the firing line due to his blunder in last nights Euros clash in Cologne which allowed Swiss striker Xherdan Shaqiri to level the game with a sensational strike.

Admittedly Raldo looks out of his depth at this level but you’ve got to remember he’s the second choice right back at Celtic and his game time was limited last season, so if he looks a little rusty it’s totally understandable.

Raldo is only playing, never mind in the squad because of injury to Nathan Paterson and Aaron Hickey.

Yes he had a mare against Germany, but who didn’t? And he was poor the first half against the Swiss, but he showed his fighting character by producing a decent second half performance, something that was highlighted by Scotland skipper Andy Robertson in his post match interview.

Raldo is far from a world beater, yes he has his flaws but he always gives you one hundred percent and is a better player than some give him credit for.

I’ve heard several opinions claiming that Tony has been the worst ever player to appear at an international tournament, that’s utter rubbish. The ones claiming that are also the very same ones who have been dishing out abuse to Callum McGregor. No need to guess as to why.
