Zappa6995 3,645 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Question, can Goldson actually jump and header a ball that is there to be won or is he buying into the onset of demetia thing. Hes absolutely rotten when the ball is dropping out the sky and is there to be contested. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,361 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Shambolic. No two ways about it. I just keep scratching my head at how they threw that away. The first goal completely fucked us and it came from nothing, absolutely nothing. That centre back pairing is now my biggest fear for Sunday, a half fit Eduard will run them riot.

Didn’t seem to be any push or foul but he’s standing there throwing his arms about looking for a foul. It’s not hard, always play to the whistle.

BlueboyG 5,238 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I have been saying to my boy all season that Goldson is like a rabbit in headlights, slow as fuck making his mind up what to do and then gets shut down and panicks, some of his passing is straight to the opposition and then he's back under pressure, if we are to be successful we need better than him.

bluenoz 30,832 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I don't have a problem with a CH making the odd stray pass. Other than Beckenbaur, I've yet to see one who doesn't but last night, those two got rag-dolled all night long and always seemed stretched for pace. Some games they look really assured, last night wasn't one of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to remember us having such a level of absolute domination - and being 2 goals to the good - only to get overturned so dramatically by a very average team. Fucking scary tbh.

Did the same against Feyenoord and gave The Sheep player a free header in our box when Flanagan inexplicably skyed it in the second half, howling defending .

Coop 654 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The defense is too one paced - slow. You get away with having one CB who's a bit on the slow side but the other guy needs to have pace to balance it out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 For the first 30-40 minutes on Wednesday we were in cruise control before the wheels came off. For whatever reason. Just have to move on. Some of the criticism of individual players is over the top. Cup final to play this weekend and look forward to. I am reminded of Kelly's Heroes and the 'negative vibes' quote.

I am reminded of Kelly's Heroes and the 'negative vibes' quote. I don't think it's criticism of the players so much, because they are what they are, but more the same underperforming players continually getting picked when they have been consistently poor. I can blame Gerrard, but who the fuck knows what goes through the mind of the manager. He appears to have settled for his best eleven and sticking with it, come what may, barring injuries. Maybe he sees it as his way of improving them, but I don't quite get it, but that is why he is a manager, not me. Albeit we've had some pish performances from the same offenders, we still do quite well. When it all clicks and we're all at it, we're pretty awesome to watch. This is a pivotal season and it's do or die, so emotions run pretty high and dropping points and the capitulation against the sheep just brings out the worst. Disappointment, frustration, anger. Unsurprising and much of it not really meant. You could see the disappointment in Gerrard, so more than anyone, he needs re evaluate his own thinking on how and who we set up with. Moaning faced cunt that I am, I'm waiting on the rabbit getting pulled out of the hat on Sunday, because despite all our flaws, we can do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 The only positions that people can argue that we possibly need some rotation in is upfront between Defoe and Morelos (most strikers would struggle to dislodge a player who has scored 25 goals before Christmas) and at centre half (but how many top teams regularly rotate and switch their centre halves). Apart from that the team that we put out every week is our strongest team, as it should be because the guys in reserve are, by and large, not good enough to start for us.

steven33jackie 1,920 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 When building play from the back a midfielder has to drop deep and take the ball of him. His distribution is slow and usually very poor. On a few occasions now he has also tried to play a one two from the halfway line and found him self way out of position. Its his positional lack of discipline that makes him look bad. For me Helander is slow but has better positional sense than Goldson and any changes should see Goldson drop out with Katic coming and that way we also maintain the natural balance of the team.

Mclean RFC 1,271 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 does anyone else stay away from these threads after a draw or a defeat because of how cringey some of the people are in here. honestly we messed up, but the bigger picture should always be the focus. we are better than last year. strong chance of europe after xmas and in a cup final. alot of people in here i believe love it also when we get beaten or draw so they have ammunition to use for the weely whipping boy. Or in tavs case its been going on a long time and with goldson too. they have not hit the heights of last season but they are still nowhere near the level ofdeserving the criticism they are currently getting. and one being a Rangers captain aswell. wishing inuries on players and calling them the chuckle brothers.
