Not sure what language most of them are speaking but from what I can tell they think he's very raw, even for the SPL and some even saying they don't know if he will make it as a pro...
Hopefully none of that is true but probably supports the idea that he wasn't ready to play PL football yet.

I only watched a few minutes but he looked comfortable made a really great long pass.
And he is oneJust me chuckling like a 10 year old at Motherwell’s left winger there?
That's not true, AI is wrongHe picked up 2 yellows and got sent off tonight as Celtic whooped Dons.
AI:
In Scottish football, receiving two yellow cards in the same match results in an immediate sending-off, but no further ban. The player is removed from the game and cannot participate further, but it does not trigger a suspension for the next match.

End of season review of Alfie Dorrington's loan at Aberdeen - worth remembering that Alfie wasn't completely over his injury at end of last season, so his loan was really more like 3 months starting towards end of January Transfer Window.
Scottish Premiership - 9 appearances (5 starts) 603 minutes
SPL, top 6 split league- 3 appearances (3 starts) 251 minutes
Scottish FA Cup - 4 appearances ( 3 starts) 279 minutes
Total for Aberdeen - 16 appearances (11 starts) 1,133 minutes
Alfie also came off bench in PL for 11 minutes.

Alfie Dorrington with SFA Cup which he helped Aberdeen win beating Celtic 4-3 on penalties, Aberdeen's first SFA Cup win since 1990 so a major event for them.
Alfie started the final and played 80 minutes - excellent experience to play in a high pressure match for a major trophy, and to help win it.
Over 1,000 minutes played for Aberdeen in less than half a season means other managers will look at him now and say he's learned a lot in his first loan, done well and is 'qualified' for a role next season either at Aberdeen or in a bigger league. Great result after an injury affected start to his season
