However, no place for sentiments this season. Where the fuck did this guy come from? Fast, good in the air, reads the game well. Him & Goldson could be a great pairing. I questioned Gerrard's decision pre match but he got this one right. Black Defenders Matter ✊🏿✊🏿 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky. 6,940 Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 FWIW I thought Goldson was also excellent today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM1872 3,714 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Back 5, albeit hardly tested, were as solid as can be. In fact, 35 minutes in before I actually remembered it was Balogun’s debut. Looked like he’d played for us for years. Very composed on the ball, looks to have decent pace and is a good height. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure_Quality 3,295 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Absolutely without question out 3rd Nigerian footballer after Aluko and Aribo. Class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MARK92GERS 807 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Thought the defence looked calm & comfortable all game and it’s certainly down to Balogun’s inclusion thought he cleared his lines well he was very composed & his distribution was brilliant he strolled that game looking forward to seeing more of him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Hedgehog 10,673 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Always worried when a player is plunged in after a few days training, especially a vital position like centre half but the big guy cruised through the game. Even when, and it went unmentioned, he was dangerously pulled back and hit his head on the post he recovered no bother, I think the post is getting treatment though.

BlueKnight87 17,302 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Great debut. Looked very composed at the back and those runs forward. Hopefully a shrewd bit of business here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clemdog 39,389 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Early signs validate what was said about him. Seeing him confidently stroll into Aberdeen's half and distrubute the ball forward was delightful. We've missed that for a long time. Something which is needed in games when the opposition are camped in. He's also not massively aggressive in his defending but he was always in the right position. Made it look easy.

King Jela 20,371 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Strolled it but honestly there was no real threat for our defence today. I'd imagine Edmundson would've strolled it today as well. We'll see how he gets on Thursday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannockbear 166 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Looked decent, Pundits worried about him coping with a physical presence but he looks a smart defender that could win free kicks against the long ball teams Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven33jackie 1,929 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Looks a good player , particularly when bringing the ball out of defence. Looks the type who would like a run deep into the opposite half. At times we lack this especially whem playing a deep lying side. A big centre half going forward can open spaces for other players.
