K.A.I 36,183 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Hemdani was twice the player Thomson was, he bossed midfields for fun, especially in Europe.Hemdani never bossed anyone he was calm - too calm for my liking if I'm honest - he wasn't shit or that just not my type of player Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtblue 36 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 He bossed midfields breaking play up like a maestro in Europe.You mixing up gattuso and hemdani. Hemdani was great for us but bossing midfields was not his forte. He was a defensive midfielder who broke up play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a defensive midfielder who broke up play.No even thinking about Gattuso, talking about Hemdani, bossing the game breaking up play taking it by the scruff of the neck stopping the opposition playing which to me is bossing the midfield.

Prso's headband 35,913 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 The bit that really stands out for me is how much he protects his teammates. I think it was against Raith one of their players went through Jason Holt and the ref played on, the player took the ball 10 seconds later and Halliday absolutely levelled him to the floor and stood over him for a split second. Really like that in a player who would run through brick walls for his teammates. Also he gives 100% in every tackle and when you can clearly see hes hurt himself he gets up and gets on with it because he knows the badge on the front is what hes playing for.

Hamilton1972 1 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 The commitment he shows on the park is second to none, one of our best signings in a few years and can see him only getting better with age Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smell the glove 55 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 He bossed midfields breaking play up like a maestro in Europe.And where did this European midfield maestro go when he left us at the age of 31?He was far from what you say he was.

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Don't normally disagree with you Cumnock but I think Hemdani is quite overrated on here.A solid 7 out of ten probably every match he played but I dont think he was ever spectacular.Thomson had a bit of everything, fucking shame he was made of chocolate.

He's blue he's white 717 Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 No even thinking about Gattuso, talking about Hemdani, bossing the game breaking up play taking it by the scruff of the neck stopping the opposition playing which to me is bossing the midfield.I agree that sounds like bossing the midfield...doesn't sound like Hemdani though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
He's blue he's white 717 Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 This,I never got the love in with Thomson, a 5/10 player imo, clattering Robbie Keane don't = hero in my book.Halliday has plenty more about him.Loved 'that' tackle, he's far from my footballing hero, but a quality, hard working, tough tackling defence midfielder he was. 7/10 player, shame about his injuries Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 He's a far better player than Thomson.Thomson was and still is average at best IMO.You need to have a word with yourself. You're getting carried away, big time.During injury-free periods, Kevin Thomson was absolutely tremendous in a Rangers jersey. He was a vital part of the Ferguson, Davis and Mendes midfield which we had the privilege of watching in 2008/09.I love Andy Halliday, he hasn't put a thing wrong and is living all of our dreams for us, the wee boy from Govan who grew-up to play for the Queen's eleven. However, he must demonstrate his ability against higher opposition, like Tuesday night, before we can start throwing his name over European Cup finalists. I'll be honest; I'm sceptical, but very, very hopeful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavieMacRFC 850 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Think Halliday has been immense since he joined, no nonsense, gets stuck in and scores the odd goal, great signing. On a side not, never rated Thomson and Hemdani was even worse, Thomson was always a 1 in 5 player (1 good game in every 5). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeeJim 92 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Great signing, hope he goes from strength to strength.My 2p on the Thomson Hemdani thing, Thomson was by far the better player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakbear 3,586 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Halliday is really impressing me, I wasn't sure what to expect but he puts everything into every game and you can just tell how much he loves it. I want him to be a success and I really hope there is more to come from him for many years. Thomson on his game was a very good player for us. Hemdani couldn't handle the speed of Scottish football and only ever looked a player in Europe where he got more space and time. Even then he was only ever a destroyer of the oppositions attacks. He was never a creator. A luxury player. What would Warburton have thought of him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
