As do I. However Katic has done precious little wrong so far so he may have to wait until Katic either has a bad game or picks up an injury.I think he is going to replace Katic.

Were any of our centre halfs suspended at any point last season?Even without loss of form centre backs invariably suffer through injury or suspension, it's the nature of the position. Add to that Europa League Group Stages (fingers crossed) he'll get his chances.
Yep, right or wrongly, i think this will be the case as well.He will play at St Mirren IMO
give him a few 90mins with the development squad and in the Tunnocks games

Helander and Katic imhoThere is no doubt it’s the one area we are spoiled for choice .
We now have four young hungry excellent centre halves with different attributes .
Goldson - leader , great game anticipation , consistency, threat from corners
Katic - huge goal threat in opposition box , rarely beaten in the air , hard as nails
Edmunsen - best long range passer of the four , good in the air , quick and determined
Helmander - composure , positioning A1, serie A experience, international class giant
My guess is soon helmander and goldson will be the preferred pairing but if we have a successful season there’s nothing to say all 4 can’t play over 30 games each
He’ll take Katic’s place. You’ll read about Katic making mistakes as a result of being young and inexperienced despite his partner arguably making more of those gaffs.
Either way, we’re spoiled for choice when it comes to centre backs.
Could we see him start at St Mirren?

I could name plenty by Katic, and the fact every goal we’ve conceded this season has came from Katic & Flanagans side.
The full defence was shocking that night, Katic & Flanagan were far worse than Goldson.Last season Goldson had quite a few howlers actually but Katic seemed to get the brunt of it.
The Moscow game was one of the worst performances by a defender I can remember, Goldson was all over the place that night.

The back 3 thing isn't a good idea. I'm sure Gerrard said he wanted 2 players in every position, so that would be 6 centre half's basically. Maybe on a rare occasion he can use it during games. Also, he's not a left back. He's an international centre half. He's been brought in for good money, I'm certain he'll be a first choice.Play him at left back v St Mirren, or as part of a back 3.

I'm convinced that Worrall had to play a certain number of games due to the loan deal, I refuse to believe that a player of Gerrards standard couldn't see how brutal he wasFlanagan maybe, Katic no.
Goldson was truly horrific that night and capped it off with a poor OG.
Katic was the whipping boy for a while last season which was one of Gerrard's biggest mistakes since becoming manager IMO.
He dropped him for no reason to shoehorn Worrall into the team, brought him back in and subbed him at half time one game when he wasn't even that bad...no chance he would've done that with Goldson or Worrall.

Not in the squad now.I can see him starting on Thursday. He must be ready now.

A shocker. Maybe some utterings I heard regarding him last week were right but I just refused to believe he was struggling.
Most fans don't understand the detail of the game really.
It's beyond mental folk think we are paying 4m for a player and not starting him.
