I was wanting to give him a chance, but todays mistake was criminal, he literally jumped out the way.
Every single time.Definitely.
If you’re a hammer throwing forward you’re targeting him some physical battles
Thought he had a good first half.
Is he Rob Keirnan in disguise?Can anybody name one particular quality he has? Nope.
Can't head the ball, lacks aggression, poor on the ball, positionally suspect, slow.
In his technique. Not his decision making.His use of the ball and passing is excellent? is there another Jack Simpson at Rangers I don't know about?
Is he Rob Keirnan in disguise?
When he didn't actually have anything to do ? lolThought he had a good first half.
Just in from the beach,had to double check the BBC for the score,gave me a fright CLI’ve tried to give him the benefit of doubt so far but I just don’t think he’s good enough.
It wasn’t his fault we lost today but he doesn’t inspire confidence in the fans or the players IMO.
I’m sure Balogun would have managed at centre half.Out of the 3 decent defenders we have, 2 of them can’t play multiple times per week. Thats why Simpson played.
Would say that’s harsh on Edmundson imoOne of a number of poor signings in the last couple of seasons. On a par with Edmundson.
Hopefully Katic comes back in January.
Between Helander, (injured) Goldson (totally out of form) .....you would prefer Simpson to Katic?
Also thank God for big Leon as he is the only one that gives me confidence going forward in that back line.Right now.
Would say that’s harsh on Edmundson imo
Normally I’d be echoing what you said but he’s been here since January and sorry but I cannot think of a single appearance where he surpassed the level of “meh no bad”I'd have preferred him on loan and keep Katic but I'll trust Gerrard on him for now.
Helander being out is a massive blow as we look so disorganised without him
He wasn’t anything special but was competent enough to win headers and tackles.Perhaps. He wasn't too good either!
Reminds me more of Danny Wilson. Kiernan wasn't scared of physical contact he just didn't have a football brain or awareness.He plays exactly the same way Rob kiernan did
Nothing against the boy, but he is so far out of his depth it's unreal
Katic be one of my 4 all day long before Simpson in the event of what happened to Big Hellander in PerthIt makes perfect sense.
Simpson wasn’t expected to play, and Katic isn’t better than the other three so loaning him out to build his fitness up - makes perfect sense.
At least wilson was half decent at one timeReminds me more of Danny Wilson. Kiernan wasn't scared of physical contact he just didn't have a football brain or awareness.
I think everyone would agree with you on that but the problem is Katic needs minutes to get fully after his huge injury lay-off, we couldn’t offer him that as 4th choice for us.Katic be one of my 4 all day long before Simpson in the event of what happened to Big Hellander in Perth
Yes agree. The nos7 for them seemed to have too much physical presence for both and got a fair bit of joy.The overall team performance is more concerning to me, but he wasn't great that's for sure. Neither was Borna which didn't help.
Have you checked Goldson’s appearance statistics before he joined us?Genuinely woeful. You see why he's played less games in his career at 24 years old than Goldson did in his first season for us. He's weak, not good in the air and doesn't know when to commit to a challenge. He's a defender that seems to lack any of the abilities you want at his position. He was a long term target for Gerrard as well, absolutely zero idea what he sees in him.
We let Danny Wilson leave 44 months ago knowing we needed better than him if we wanted to get back to challenging for trophies. We signed the English version of him in the January window for some reason. Signed until 2025.
Exactly mate so I’d make sure we’d be covered with the best players possibleI think everyone would agree with you on that but the problem is Katic needs minutes to get fully after his huge injury lay-off, we couldn’t offer him that as 4th choice for us.
As it turns out big Fil gets an injury and Katic could’ve had minutes but nobody really could’ve predicted that
I don't know why but Gerrard seems to have a habit of dropping the inform players.He's not good enough.
He's had a few chances and not good enough. Can't understand why Balogun wasn't playing today.
Very true,I'd prefer Katic, but we don't know how his body is going to react, how his form would be.
Ideally mate aye, but if Helander doesn’t get injured then we have Niko hardly playing and just stagnating.Exactly mate so I’d make sure we’d be covered with the best players possible
