Goldson and Borna play better with him there. Balogun is a very good player as well.. we are blessed in defence. The taigs could only dream of such a luxury. Edmundson would walk into the septic back line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazzanova11 59 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I remember when he came out at half time during the Marseille game pre season I thought he was a pointless signing considering the fee but he’s done ok considering his lack of pace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,361 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Our best defender when he's fully fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CR3 12,679 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Positioning is great. I like the pace and recovery of Balogun to suit certain opposition but there’s no doubt that Goldson & Helander are our best partnership. Clean sheets almost every time.

Prso's headband 35,428 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Btw the whole needless foul aspect is a pile of pish as well. I can’t think of a time where we’ve directly conceded from a foul given away by Helander and you’ll notice the majority of his fouls are about 45+ yards away from our goal and it almost always is the opposition striker he fouls because he just follows them around the pitch when we don’t have the ball. It’s a brilliant trait to have and one of the reasons why we signed him because it means we play so high up the park without the ball on most occasions.

left winger 14,142 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Yeah, he is. But Balogun is an excellent defender as well. We don't drop much in quality when he plays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 35,428 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 It’s always been the case. Helander hasn’t lost a game domestically in the league, his only defeat domestically was the offside final. I’d go as far to say that Motherwell goal doesn’t happen if Helander plays Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AljayBoy 2,298 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Hibs tested us a few times and him and Goldson were up to the task, very good centre halfs. And to think we've got Balogun and Katic as back ups - two centre halfs who themselves could walk into ANY other team in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
