Leon Balogun

[Alfie_WATP]

No and he should have been binned years ago.

A centre back who refuses to be aggressive and put his body on the line? Useless.

 

[Cavin]

Nope
We need two new CH and keep Balogun for another season for backup.

 

[Betterintune]

No! Hopefully we can get rid of him end of the season.

 

[Athole bear]

Nope

 

[Blue Trossachs]

No, But Big Soapy is being an utter Bombscare!!

 

[BigHamish]

Comfortably better than Goldson.

 

[Derek76]

Not going to be popular with some on here but our best partnership is Goldson and big Leon

 

[Bundy Bear]

No

 

[Stevie13000]

Nope .

 

[Brighton_Loyal]

I think we’ll see Goldson and Big Leon together next time out

 

[top_cat]

Nope, not at all.

 

[Fergie_6]

Personally, don’t think we did.
Balagon was superb.

Wit? Most stupid question, considering we never conceded a goal FFS.

 

[Fairbrass]

Nope & hopefully his time here is at an end.

 

[imager]

No and he should have been binned years ago.

A centre back who refuses to be aggressive and put his body on the line? Useless.

nonsense, he is our best CH, we saw when he was injured how much we missed him,.

 

[Davieblue1977]

Nope, Balogun is an international player with a lot of games played

 

[Thechemist]

Balogun in the right centre half position played well so no but souter was poor so maybe goldson and balogun play till the end of the season.

 

[ChildOfGoth]

I actually thought Souttar defended well but it was on the ball he was nervy.

Bad misjudgment when he over played the ball on the lhs going towards his own goal wasn’t it but the second Fukup was really down to the Sterling pass . Both would have been eased if we had a left CD but we didn’t and he is stuck with plsying there which surprised me a little I expected LEon to play left

 

[SPRINGBOIG LOYAL]

What a silly question. Balogun best player on the park.

 

[Davie Weir]

I think you already know the answer

 

[Jjbscotty]

Absolutely not he should have played his last game this last week.

 

[GazzaLegend]

No, Goldson and Souter need to battle it out to see who will partner Balogun for the rest of the season.

 

[TheBridgeLoyal]

Not at all. Won’t be missed the rest of the season either hopefully.

 

[JDC76]

Personally, don’t think we did.
Balogun was superb.

No - Balogun was brilliant

 

[imager]

Nope, Balogun is an international player with a lot of games played

who also has a horrendous injury record.

 

[Kit_]

It's a bit of a dilemma because Souttar seems to pair up better with Goldson but Balogun is clearly the better option than Goldson right now.

 

[TonyAtTheBing]

His best attribute has always been his natural fitness, as an out and out defender he's always been a weak link.

 

[Awaydays72]

Hoping big Balogun can stay fit so we don’t see goldson again. He was brilliant today.

 

[Craig]

No.

Hopefully we've seen the last of him our starting eleven.

 

[gizmico1986]

Balogun’s jersey to lose.

 

[woodster]

Actually think we need him back and playing well and to rotate between Souttar and Balogun.

 

[El Jock Grande Sabia]

Simply put, no.

For me, that's the choice going forward.

They were very assured, other than 1 slip up from Souttar.

 

[georgedoors]

Who

 

[superallythe2nd]

Nope.

Thought we looked a lot better overall.

 

[Awaydays72]

It's a bit of a dilemma because Souttar seems to pair up better with Goldson but Balogun is clearly the better option than Goldson right now.

Souttar and Balogun played very well together, and kept a clean sheet away to hibs earlier in the season, and again today. Hopefully see more of it

 

[1BrianLaudrup]

No, not really. Still arguable that him and Balogun are the best partnership, and Souttar has his weaknesses. But Goldson no longer stabilises our defence the way Carter-Vickers does for them. His time as an unshakable first pick is over.

 

[Godrup99]

Personally, don’t think we did.
Balogun was superb.

No, the decision that should've been made ages back

 

[55degreesnorth]

Give him another year
He is great to have as cover

This in spades. The big man would play for next to nothing I'd imagine, he loves it here.

 

[Mreblue]

Nope +1

 

[Class of 72]

No and Balogun was my MOM. Outstanding today.

 

[Byson]

Th

No he’s the worst out of the three

That is very true

 

[Los Pollos Hermanos]

Balogun stays in the team, toss up to see who partners him.

 

[SpeyBayLoyal]

Big Balgoun bossed it today. I’d hang on to him next season for back up providing he’s up for it.

 

[MaxMK]

Balogun is the best CB we have. He wins every header.

 

[Calvinist]

Balogun was excellent. Souttar wasn’t particularly very good.

Souttar is not good enough and error prone , should be moved on in the summer

 

[The Spaniard]

Hard to tell for me. Hearts squandered every decent build-up they had.

 

[Cowan_rfc]

I'd rather Goldson play than Souttar. He's too error prone.

We need new centre defenders

 

[DarrenDRM]

First name on the sheet next week for me

 

[MainStandLoyal]

Th

That is very true

No it isn’t. Comfortably better than Souttar.

 

[The Sasa Shuffle]

Best defender at the club.

 

[ChildOfGoth]

nonsense, he is our best CH, we saw when he was injured how much we missed him,.

Never seen that today and time will tell because it’s no longer a club where CG is unimpeachable . That’s my interpretation at least .
