I was critical of McPake after the Motherwell game but he was decent last week and fantastic today.

Hanlon has been good all season barring a couple of games

Tbh I think this is maybe the first time I've EVER said this...but all 14 players used today were magnificent. Usually get one or two not doing good. But all 14 were AWESOME.

My man of the match is mcpake but williams is close

They were excellent but Claros just edged it for me today

Doyle was MOM by a country mile.

he would probably be mine too, but all eleven 11 are contenders.

Thought Williams was fantastic. Didn't have many saves to make. But the one's he did make were terrific and he commanded the defence expertly.

McPake was solid throughout and it's clear to see what we were missing over the last couple of months with Deegan back fit.

Had someone next to me that thought Doyle was murder...wonder if he posts on here...

Doyle ran that wing brilliantly. Didn't do a lot when up front but he was tremendous before that

Great to see Mcpake going radge at the end. Showed what it meant to beat Celtic. Played great too.

I agree with your first view but personally felt that Claros and Stevenson (particularly in the second half) were a shade above the others!!

Great attitude and work rate in a superb team performance today which Celtic just couldn't beat!

World class save too from Big Ben off the deflected Hooper shot in the second half!!!

McPake was immense but everybody gets pass marks. So I would give it to Williams:greengrin

One of the best possible dilemmas: so many good performances no one can decide man of the match :agree:

Sitting a hotel in Austria and this is very pleasing to read....

Especially after Wednesday 's shambles.

Keep it up for the next game!

Williams and the whole back four were excellent, as was Maybury when he replaced Clancy. McPake and Hanlon were just winning everything and made some good blocks too. Clancy was great and put in a few decisive tackles on Samaras while Stevenson did well both defensively and in getting the ball forward and linking up with Cairney - he showed why he is definitely worth keeping around. Williams did everything he needed to and pulled of a couple of important saves too.

Really really pleased with the defence today, something we've not been able to say much recently!

Williams, Hanlon and McPake as a triple joint winner.

I thought mcpake was probably the only one who got pass Marks against Ross county on wed and he was tremendous today. Looking more like the player we signed again. Welcome back James

Hanlon was outstanding today, McPake likewise.

Such a pleasing performance from the boys today, roll on Thursday.

GGTTH!
