Between Fil and Balogun, the two play at such a high level that I actually can't tell the difference to figure out who's better. They're both that good.
I will throw in another buzz word - “Dykes”.Before someone mentions 'pace', his positioning is a different level. Doesn't get dragged into silly areas that he shouldn't be in.
I also think Barisic plays better with him in the team.
For me the team looks better when he plays. The back 4 defend so comfortably with him in it and we seem to defend higher up the pitch.
In my opinion he should still be our first choice going forward.
Yet Balogun gets selected because he has pace?For me the team looks better when he plays. The back 4 defend so comfortably with him in it and we seem to defend higher up the pitch.

I dont know where Katic fits in if the 3 current centre halfs remain.
Edumunson who is now not Rangers class needs to go this season.

cant choose between him and Balogun but I reckon Borna plays better with Helander in the teamFor me the team looks better when he plays. The back 4 defend so comfortably with him in it and we seem to defend higher up the pitch.

Also, I guess you don’t mean ahead of Goldson.
I’m with you.He might have more pace but he isn't more aggressive than Helander.
Agreed. I think Borna always plays better next to Fil.Before someone mentions 'pace', his positioning is a different level. Doesn't get dragged into silly areas that he shouldn't be in.

Agree with this. Both excellent players with great attributesThere are certain teams who play to the strengths of one or the other.
I'm happy with them both.

The way I look at it isHelander and Balogun are both excellent central defenders, but Goldson is clearly our best and first choice central defender.
I wonder if it’s because he can concentrate more on attacking than having to maybe “bail” Leon out if he gets into botherBefore someone mentions 'pace', his positioning is a different level. Doesn't get dragged into silly areas that he shouldn't be in.
