Ross Tierney is relishing the challenge of proving he can handle the physical nature of the Scottish Premiership after battling against bigger players all of his life.
The 5ft 7in attacking midfielder made his Motherwell debut against Morton on Saturday after joining from Bohemians.
The 20-year-old made 67 appearances for the Dublin side over three seasons and is a Republic of Ireland Under-21 international. But he feels his size had put off some other suitors before Motherwell succeeded with a bid.
