GOAT 30,449 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Best defender we’ve got IMO, strolled it every game he’s played and always defends first and keeps it simple. Finny, LegendofCoop, EastEnclosureBear and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the big guy, he has had one or two shaky performances (as have they all) but some of the stuff I’ve read on here about him being poor is absolute bollocks, I’ve even seen some say Worrall is a better player! The lad is quality and I still think there must have been some reason or something going on behind the scenes for him to have barely played. Without question him and Goldson are our best pairing. jintybear, True Hair Bear, WATP-FOREVER and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 35,516 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Shock horror as one of our best defenders puts in yet another solid defensive display. Gerrard probably hasn’t got a lot wrong, but his handling of Katic is all wrong it really is. Goldson and Katic from now on, just like it was when we looked our strongest defensively about 4 month ago GOAT, Almacger and jintybear 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

five stars 1,626 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 He's definitely more comfortable on the ball than Worrall. Worrall is not good enough to play as left centre half as he's very uncomfortable on his left foot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueMe 25,327 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Put Goldson in today's starting line-up instead of Worrall and that's our best 11 imo. That may change when Davis, Defoe and even Grezda get match fit, but not at the moment.

Why's there always a 'but' with you? Even when trying to be positive, you always seem to put a negative slant on it as well.

He was solid and it should show Gerrard when Goldson is back he’s got his strongest centre backs. This! Kent went arse over tit a couple of times without even turning. Tav slipped just trying to run forward......no mention of those. He was turning and putting all his weight to one side.....on that pitch, it's tricky! 51 minutes ago, Jimbeamjunior said: He was fantastic today, not a foot wrong for someone who should be lacking in match fitness I saw him ask the ref on 85 mins how long to go. You wouldn't have guessed it from his performance though.....strolled it. He also made 3 fantastic headers out of defence in that second half. One flying clearance and one flicked header from the edge of the box out towards Kent behind him......lovely clearance. I thought he & Candeias were our best performers. With all the personal shit he's gone through, and the knock in confidence at being dropped....to come back and play that well (never lost a header or a tackle), was admirable. My MOTM.

EatDolphins 5,355 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Katic and goldson need a good solid run together. They'll be our CB pairing next session I'd imagine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
