The response to Goldson’s form this season has been way OTT, particularly yesterdays showing. He was poor at the start of the season then rediscovered his form. He wasn’t great yesterday, particularly at their penalty, but it wasn’t the catastrophic performance you’d assume reading this thread. There were others who were poorer in fact. I‘ve concerns about the form of the team overall, not just 1 or even 2 players.
Fans have got the hump because he hasn’t signed a new contract. Same happened with Lundstram and the Sheffield United fans last season. Goodness knows how many years after the Bosman Ruling folk still haven’t got used to the idea that’s how it works these days. The player gets to have a say, rightly, in his future. If Goldson thinks he’s worth more than Rangers are offering he’s entitled to look elsewhere - just like you or I would.
I don’t think ‘his mind is elsewhere’ and nor do I think ‘he isn’t trying a leg’. That’s just easy labels to stick on a guy with no basis in reality. Like most of our team he simply isn’t quite there with his form yet. Collectively they need to sort that out. I’ve no more concerns over Goldson, despite his contract situation, than I do over any others.
