George Baldock has praised Ben Tilney following the youngster’s recent two impressive performances at the back for MK Dons.
Tilney stood out in last Tuesday’s Sky Bet League One clash with Bury – his first league appearance – and he followed that up with another solid performance in the fixture with Fleetwood Town at Stadium MK this past weekend.
His two displays last week earned him plaudits from manager Robbie Neilson, the Dons supporters and fellow Academy graduate Baldock, who acknowledged his team-mate’s excellent start to life in league football.
“He’s settled in really well,” Baldock said after the clash with Fleetwood.
“He’s got a quirky side – the hair and the rock music he puts on in the changing room when it’s his turn – but he’s a really nice lad and the boys have taken to him really well.
“I really like Ben and I’m buzzing for him.”
