Shaun Maloney has leapt to the defence of Ryan Porteous - and challenged him to prove negative perceptions of him are wrong.
The Hibs boss reckons the 23-year-old will soon become a “top international” if he continues to develop and learns to curb the emotional side of his game.
Porteous begins a four-game ban tomorrow after losing an appeal against his red card against Aberdeen. It means he will miss crucial league games against Dundee United and Hearts as well as the first two fixtures after the split.
