John Hartson that An🧜thony Ralston has been outstanding this season, and labelled the full-back the most improved player at Celt𓂃ic since Ange Postecoglou arrived.
The Hoops have their first points of the Eur𝔉opa League campaign after beating Ferencvaros on Tuesday.
Celtic won 2-0 at Parkhead. An𓄧d they had the ꦏopportunity to win by many more. But it could have also been a much more disappointing evening.
The visitors looked set to have a golden chance to score. However, Ralston produced a stunning challenge to knock the ball behi꧒nd when Ferencvaros looked to have a simple task.
But the 22-year-old did brilliantly. And in trut﷽h, that♒ moment would have come as no surprise to those who have watched Celtic this season.
Ralston has been a revelation so far this term. It is incredible to think of the turnaround he has enjoyed given how und🌳erwhelming it seemed when Posteco🥃glou included him in his plans in pre-season.
And Hartson insisted that Ralston’s progress has been greater than anyone else’s within Postecoglou’s squad as he reflected on the goal-saving ch💟allenge he made.
“He smells the danger there and he gets back. He’s first in and it’s out fo✱r a corner kick. Excellent defending,” .
“Ralston’s been excellent, right from the word go. Start of the 🙈season, he’s been Celtic’s most improved player. He’s got the shirt and I think the manager really likes him.
“I think Ralston’s been outs🎶tanding, he really has.”
Ralston helping set the standard at Celtic with performances this season
Ralston has his limitations. It did app🌊e𝐆ar that the academy graduate had struggled to kick on in the years since he burst onto the scene.
And there may💝 come a time – given where Celtic hope ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚto go under Postecoglou – that Ralston needs to become more of a backup option.
But he is certainly setting the standard with his attitude since returning t🌊o the fold.
