SeparateEntityMyArse 45,888 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Great defensive play today but still only the 2nd best CH on the park and behind the hero that is ForeverAndEver and Essandoh like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CumbernauldBear 109 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Thinking back over the last few seasons since we came back from being shat upon from a great height by bitter haters. How often have we been able to sit back and argue in a positive way about who was our best player in any game never mind a game against them. There’s been a lot of criticism of Gerrard on here, some justified and a lot of it, in my opinion, not. Howeve the transformation of the team since he took over is unarguable. We’re back, we just need one trophy and this team is heading places we were only dreaming of only a couple of years ago. glasgow argyle and MurrayWilson like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Copeland1983 1,274 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Reads the game brilliantly, great heart and loves a tackle. Lack of pace is well known, but he is aware of it and plays the game smart as a result, also listen if he had pace on top of his other qualities, he'd be playing at the very top level in Europe.

Goofy The Scot 197 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Helander and Goldson were both class today, and the great thing is we have fantastic backup in Balogun - i'd take any of those 3 over anything celtic have. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Monk 2,619 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Been very impressed with him, he knows his limitations but is an intelligent defender and knows exactly when to time a tackle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Real Ranger 2,382 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 2 hours ago, gogzy said: It's hard to pick our best player. Helander is an absolute rock in defense though. Barasic is definitely in with a shout. I think Tav is one of our best also, regardless of what others say about him. Growing into that captains role. You missed Kamara out Gogzy, thought he was outstanding. glasgow argyle and gogzy like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Broxi 5,830 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Something that’s not talked about much as well is how much football he’s played and how little time he’s been out for us considering that we signed him off the back of a serious heart surgery. Risk well paid off in that regard edit: thought this was the Goldson thread Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Prso's headband 24,242 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 I agree. Best defender in the league. Beautiful defending Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lovenkrands72 276 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Reads the game well and is very solid. Much better defender than Goldson, having said that, Goldson is a better footballer. Nice to have some decent options at centre half for a change Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Swagger 2,686 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Helander is a cracking defender. Reads the game incredibly well. The fact people are ‘arguing’ about the best player in the squad is a great sign. If Zunga can bring something to this squad we are no far off.

shaka 773 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 The block he made in the first half when it looked like the scum player had a clear shot on goal was amazing. He might not be our best player but Helander is probably the best CH we have and easily better than any defender at any other team in Scotland.

G.E.C. 11,377 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 He’s outstanding. Think we’ve only lost 3 times with him in the team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
beararse 3,604 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Don’t think he’s our best player but he’ll be our most important player in the push for the title IMO. No coincidence we are now seeing the best of Goldson with Helander by his side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
magic8ball 19,280 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 8 hours ago, TMB said: Kamara was the best player in that pitch today. He absolutely ran rings around Brown, Ntcham, McGregor, etc. So cool and composed on the ball. Even with no space or support the opposition just cannot get the ball off Kamara. Helander is a solid defender. He was great today. He lacks a bit of pace but he’s steady and dependable. Dare I say, a bit like Davie Weir. Some great performances today ,But for me it’s the team as a unit that deserves the praise . Kamara was excellent for me,Ryan Christie and McGregor get huge plaudits from many but there is only 1 out of that 3 I would want playing in my team . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SANDYGER 49 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Backs to the wall type of defender who has yet to let us down. Benn immense this season Quote Link to post Share on other sites
British_Empire 9,647 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Head and shoulders above any defender in Scotland last 10 years or so. Maybe even longer. magic8ball likes this Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StewGer 402 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Well lets see Klimala or however you spell it was up against him and got one shot off when he was offside, then Ajeti came on and I forgot he came on. Think the big man did well today and aye looks solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Sinner 246 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Think Helander, Barisic and Kent have gone to new levels this year. They look a cut above tbh, stroll pretty much every game. magic8ball likes this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
