However, he was impressed with the way the new arrival did not allow his head to go down and the effort which he continued to put in on a daily basis during training at Auchenhowie despite the flak which was flying in his direction.“I think you have to give Cyriel massive credit for that,” he said. “I have been here for a long time and I understand how hard it is when you go through bad times.
