Given this has been rumbling on for a while, I'll admit to not being totally convinced by what I've seen on the pitch and in highlight reels. I've just watched his interview though and it's difficult not to be impressed with his attitude and the way he talks.
I have far more trust in our recruitment than what 200 random Celtic fans say on a message board, although it is good that on this occasion they are in agreement.
There is some disagreement re away fans attending Ibrox and Celtic Park for old firm games.
Average? The word you are looking for is "shite".
Connor Goldson was unfortunate I think. Because he looked great before he had his heart problem. We then brought Duffy in to play alongside Dunk, and we looked very physical at the back. But Goldson at that point in time was a better passer of the ball than both of them (although Dunk has since improved his passing incredibly ). I can't help but feel if Goldson had stayed for a while longer, our style of passing out from the back would have suited him under Potter.
Agree (apart form the 'still there' bit - he left in the summer, and is now in Cyprus).
Yes that is true. But the fact is, when he moved to Rangers he immediately looked like arguably the best defender in the league. Here, he was one of three who could have been permed in and out of the side, and crucially that was as a Championship side.
Playing alongside Balogun ( our 5th choice CB )
And yet he reached the Europa League final with Rangers, and his replacement Duffy was an unmitigated disaster at Celtic. Goldson was always a good player, he just didn't reach his peak with us.
