We had a team full of good performances against celtic on saturday and media outlets gave special mentions on how good both connor goldson and glen kamara were and rightly so, as they were superb! I would like to mention here, about how good goldson's centre half partner big filip helander was.
First and foremost helander is an old fashioned proper centre half, who defends with every bit of his body and defends his box. He does the rugged centre half work superb, ie. the strong physical challenges,
last ditch blocks, strong in the air, positions himself superbly well, to allow for his lack of pace. He's a no nonsense, old school centre half and you need one of the centre halfs within any successful team, to be able to do that. I thought helander was immense against celtic and he brings the perfect balance to our centre half pairing of goldson and himself ðŸ‘Goldson is the right footed footballing centre half, whereas helander is the left footed rugged, old school centre half,
who'll defend first and foremost! They're opposites, but that's what tends to make the best/ most successful, centre half partnerships👌I think helander is a cracking big centre half, who loves the hard meaty challenges and i firmly believe now, that goldson and helander, is rangers best centre half pairing! Thoughts fellow bears 🤔.

Totally agree mate, whilst Connor can be guilty of a few lapses he is a trusted, tried and reliable defender who can always be counted on. can't tell you how many games he has played for the famous v ones missed but must be a very high percent.

Helander's tackle in the first few minutes was pure class.

SGL, I agree with most of your post, it was good, but please, I’ve never stood in the pub or anywhere and discussed “ media outlets “, nor do I need / forward slashes for two words which almost always mean the same thing, if you mean the paper, just say so, your not reporting for the herald old chap
No offence intended,

Was a beauty Efriar, said at the time in the group chat. Spot on coop, one blood and guts old school defender and one to play out is a great double act. Compared to that lump they got on loan that thinks he is both but is actually neither 🤣 how many videos online of him battering long balls to no one? Two million loan fee, love to see it!

You used to say coops that Goldson was like watching Ferdinand, are we saying Helander Is our Vedic 🇬🇧ðŸ‘ðŸ».

Not seen enough of balogun and I would prefer him because he is faster than both but won’t complain about them as they are doing a fine job.

The one he pinged out to the right of the dugouts in the 2nd half snell was a beauty. Did you see Lennon's reaction? Comedy gold!

If you watch Sportscene highlights, just after Kents shot gets stopped on the line, watch Kamara's beautiful reverse pass. Beautiful.

Even funnier is the still game mash up that's been done with it BMGH01 🤣 got left on read after sending that to my dhim supporting mate funnily enough!

I’ve double checked there’s no forward slashes / / in the post Tom? Lol.

Helander reminds me of per mertsacker. His positioning is top notch. He might not be the quickest but he doesn’t need pace with his positional sense.
