Rumour is there is a £3-4m option to buy after seasons loan.

I hope they all play badly.

Technically a very good defender on paper, pace, strength height, good tackler, comfortable on the ball.

But is a tad naive and will get outfoxed by clever forwards and bullied by smaller forwards he should be having for breakfast. He needs a lot of experience and a manager who has confidence in his ability.

I do see him growing and becoming a great cb in the right environment.

He'll get game time as van djke is off to saints or Everton, despite what the world believes the Scottish domestic game has some decent players, he will get tested.

He's an absolute tank.

With regular game time he could become a good player, definitely got the talent and physical attributes.

I liked him much better at left back when he was coming up through the Academy and U21s.

Through those years he was just much bigger and quicker than the vast majority of the other lads. He'd go on these rampaging runs up the field outpacing and out-muscling everyone. Looked like he was going to turn into a complete beast back then.

We need a LB as well as a CB our wee left back is a lovely guy, he just forgets that he's primarily a defender

Feedback from the Reds fans sounds promising - he'll also know Janko, which should be a positive

Think we might have another rough diamond.

I like Blackett, I think he'll be more than capable of holding his own against SPL teams, except Hearts maybe, Sow is a beast and I'm not sure Boyata and Blackett will be enough to stop him. Europe might be a problem as well, with Ajax & Fenerbache but he's certainly a prospect.

Thanks to all for input, Tyler introduced to us at half time today.
