Ottawabear 0 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Helander and Goldson are our top two. I like balogun despite his drop in form of late. Fuck knows how we failed to beat Malmo in the second half as it was there for the taking but we move on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

siamthedanger 2,867 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 If we are emptying Katic could we not also look to get rid of Simpson and get a solid player who can genuinely compete with Goldson and Helander for a place in the starting 11? If Katic isn't seen to be good enough then surely Simpson isn't either? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunk and disorderly. 14,689 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Considering it is the Sun reporting it I fully expect Katic to extend his contract and have a testimonial in the year 2030.

EMRFC 4,851 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Overrated on here because people haven’t seen him play for a while. Still think he’d be better than Simpson but oh well. Best of luck to him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,676 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Balogun has been better than Katic was. Clearly our 3rd best CB. Simpson doesn't look better though. Shame if he isn't seen as better than him. Everyone wants a guy like Katic to succeed. Just makes it more disappointing that he hasn't shown to be good enough.

Poor distribution, weak in the air, soft in the tackle, lack awareness, gambles, gets caught in possession. Gerrard likes him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears r us 30,998 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I have always like Katic so not happy with this story when Simpson seems very poor, but fans do not pick what players stay or go so if this story is correct I wish him well and hope he goes on to be the players I think he can be. Not sure if I should post this link or not, but if you do not want to read it just do not click on it. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/7555588/rangers-nikola-katic-over-transfer/ sergi1980 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrymorrison1 1,033 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Boy I know had pics with him and barisic while on a night outin Glasgow earlier tonight. It’s on his FB feed. Katic Doesn’t look too fazed if it’s true. Not sure what the manager will think of his players in close contacts for selfies with strangers (to them) mind you Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
