I was worried to see Hagi in starting 11 as I thought he wasnt here long enough to play in a game that nothing but 3 points had to be won. I was proved very wrong.
However I thought Edmundson was very impressive. Do you think he will take katic place?

His Jersey to lose now imo. Was the same when katic came in and done well. Since then his performances have been poor.
Just to add i have been one of Goldsons biggest critics however since october he has been a rock for us and i have been impressed by him.

Katic blows hot and cold, happens with young lads we saw same last year, he will continue to improve.
Goldston is our best CH.

Felt sorry for big Katic getting dropped but got to say the boy Edmunson looks the part every time you see him. Think the big fellas in the team to stay.

Thought big Edmundson done very well last night, i'm a massive Katic fan but based on his performance against the sheep i can see why he had been dropped. good place to be at though when you're torn over the centre half pearing you choose. For me Helander is bottom of the pecking order which says something because i don't think Helander is bad its just places for that position are very competitive and based on Edmundson's performance last night he has definitely given Gerrard a lot to think about.

Edmundson did fine last night. I really like him and think he will be a great centre half for us. I still feel sorry for Katic. The best way to let someone get over a bad game is to send them out and give them a chance to play better. Like i said in a post last night it only takes one poor game for Katic to get dropped. For others in the team they are given the opportunity to go show what they can do in the next game.
I completely disagree with anyone who says Katic has been horrendous. His distribution is sometimes a bit slack but in general he's been good since coming into the team in my opinion.

Agree mate, big niko has a bad game he's dropped, others get 6 or 7 games like that.

i think Katic has had more than one bad game. unfortunately for him his mistakes can cost goals where as someone further forward wont. the other aspect is the performance of all 3 of them aren't that far apart ie not much difference between 1st, 2nd or 3rd choice so its easier to drop him. other positions don't have the luxury of having 2 replacements waiting in the wing to take over at same or better level.

John25, I agree young players will blow hot and cold. Edmundson is a year younger than Katic, so no doubt he will hit a spell of poor form too, and it will be all change again?

Bring honest geeza, we had 3 clean sheets out of 4. Defending hasn't been the problem since break middle to front we've been terrible. Davis looks like the davis from last january kamara been awful kent awful. Still think katic is gerrards scapegoat at times.

Agree Covenanter, two good young players for us, the next change could be Helander back in.
Defending against hearts and hibs goals were not the best, however that is first goal we have lost in league at ibrox since October.
Let’s keep it tight and deliver more up front.

Geesa interesting to not manager says he changed Katic as he was moving the ball to slow against the teams who defend deep.
He says he played Edmundson as he moves ball quickly and more accurately.
