Madina 4,247 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 *awaits the Goldson was carrying a slight knock klaxon* at the end when interviewers ask Clement why he was dropped.

Not like we haven’t found the man in recent weeks - just one particular man has completely lost his mojo in these situations. And hopefully stop conceding any. Balogun way more aggressive and on the front foot. Wee need to sort this defence in the summer HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moody Blue 10,021 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Ooft, he’s been shite but still surprised Goldson has been dropped. No excuses now but tough game to win, by fuck they better have a better showing than the last 7days or we’ll be oot. BlueAvenger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealWorldRich 869 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Not a fan of a sea change like dripping Goldson for a semi final. Granted he's been poor this season but 1. there's players I'd drop ahead of him (Tav for one is much more of a defensive liability) & 2. Goldson didn't do much wrong in his last game where we kept a clean sheet. I don't really like how Clement seems to randomly pick out players to bench, first it was Cantwell, last week it was Dessers now it seems to be Goldson? Anyway, I expect a big performance today, we've got a big pitch and an opponent that won't park the bus, both those things should be in our favour and hopefully a good showing will bring back some much needed form to this side.

I know he's shite but fuck me surely he will get 2 shots on target. Lordy. That is embarrassing for him that even the bookies think that low of him. Pulling the piss really.

SIRB_72 4,148 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Nice to see Balogun back in. Sterling is wasted at left back and the left side is too narrow. Sima better off the left but we'll see HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Prso's headband 36,807 Posted April 21 Popular Post Share Posted April 21 Glad the manager has dropped someone. It’s clear that he recognises the issues because I was starting to slightly worry he was backing the wrong horses in the squad.

bluenoz 32,471 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 So does this mean Souttar will play on the right side? His preferred position.

Jamie0202 13,075 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 5 minutes ago, GA1972 said: I’m keen to see how Souttar gets on presumably back on his natural right hand side It will be interesting to see who plays left and right. Balogun is faster than Souttar so here's an agument for playing him on the right to use his pace when Tav is miles up field but I think you will be right and it will be Souttar on the right. I've always found it odd that Goldson is ALWAYS on the right no matter who he partners in defence. I'm sure I heard years ago that coaches doing their badges are taught that basic tactics when you have two right footed centre halves is to play the better of the two out of position on the left allowing the weaker one to play on their more favoured side where they will be more comfortable. Goldson has allegedly been out strongest centre half for years but always gets played in his favoured side on the right 🤔. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee need to sort this defence in the summer Indeed mate. I’m hoping Balogun will make a difference. As others have said, also see how Souttar gets on on his natural ‘side’. (Assuming he’s moved across) A much bigger rebuild job than we really need at this point. molesmole 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
