Katic withdrawn from Croatia U21s with injury, as has Barsic with the seniors. 

Thanks for that Graeme, clears things up.

Katic is 4 months older than Worrall .

He was better than Worrall four months ago then.

Thought he was good against Rapid, and decent yesterday. 

One thing that pissed me off against Hearts was him backing off their big striker when he was on the edge of our box and allowing him to shoot.

 

[TheKingObv 10,646]

Decent enough at defending but he's brutally slow which might give us issues considering we defend pretty high up the park.

Katic has a better first touch has more pace and will be better by a good margin when he’s Worrals age, just opinion of course. ?

Katic positional sense is also far superior to Worrals. 

 

[Smile 26,609]

Don't rate Worrall so far he may improve though and with Katic injured he will have to play.

[Lloyd 10,756]

Would rather have Bates

[hooooootchy 405]

I dunno about him yet. Decent enough v villareal, Really poor at livi, great game v rapid then  poor again v hearts. Mixed bag. 

[BLUEDIGNITY 33,647]

Jury still out, impresses one minute shows weaknesses the next, needs to be consistently strong.

Not really, at the moment he's in the physio's room. 

[dee9 3,972]

I like him tbh. I do prefer Katic however we have 3 very good cbs Imo who will all get plenty of game time throughout the season.

[MrMckee 3,420]

Think he's done decent since coming into the side and considering he's not had as much time to settle in as everyone else. Think he's been decent every game bar livi but tbh we lost that game due to the fact we created fuck all. Yes we conceded a goal but if you don't look to score atleast 2 in a game you can't complain about dropping points. Better then any other defender we have had (apart from katic & goldson) for the last 6 years.

It seems to be the narrative that he was abysmal against Livi but he wasn't any worse than the rest of the team imo.

That said, the whole team was abysmal, but not sure why he has been singled out so much.

Exactly. Like I say we didn't lose that game due to the defence it was our poor play going forward.

Might be because I was a CB that I picked him out more, but he was truely awful against Livingston. 

One of those games where nothing went right for him. Even his own team mates were slaughtering him for his decision making, losing his man time and time again, and general lack of concentration. 

He’s been better since, but I’m not that impressed. Katic is far better IMO.

FWIW I reckon Katic would have been poor on that abomonation of a pitch at Livi aswell.

Maybe. Pitch was an utter disgrace. Can’t believe it’s allowed.

the pitch was a joke but shouldn't make us play as bad as we did. 

Still not sure of Worrall, liked the look of Katic and think he's done ok up to now but with him being injured, no other option as Mcauley is still not fit enough yet

Thanks for your input

Ejaria was being written off on here at first after his first few games with more than a few calling him "dug shit".  Worrall's Rangers career has just begun and given his potential he could easily become a very important player for us.  I'm sure he will be.

Not by the sensible ones. 

Still can’t believe the amount of ‘needs to just play it simple’ posts. As a creative midfielder his job is the exact opposite. Do things that others can’t. 

Delighted how he’s come on to a game.

I think what folk meant by that is that he needs to stop holding onto the ball for as long as he was doing, he was getting caught in possession a lot in his first few games but he’s improved massively.
