Moore's early form brought questions regarding his suitability to the Scottish Premiership before he would eventually go on to turn things around and become Young Player of the Year with seven goals and four assists in 47 outings.
The playmaker has come through a similarly difficult beginning on loan at Koln in the Bundesliga and he had other critics before he left Spurs after a handful of appearances.
But his time in Glasgow, he tells the Daily Record, has prepared him for what may come.
“There’s not many places like Glasgow when you’re getting criticism,” he told the Daily Record.
“I learned that in the first few months at the club. But I deserved it and I had to take it. Obviously I wasn’t playing too well so you’re going to get criticism.
“I didn’t expect to get the stick I did. It helped mentally toughen me up so much.
“It prepared me to go back because in the Premier League everyone’s watching and you’re criticised from everywhere.”
