Goldson

[dangull]

I thought he may have been a bit pissed off with his lack of playing time since joining the club after being a regular at his previous club.

It seems he is in line to start in the next few games due to Uwe and Greer (probably) being out for a few weeks.

How did he got on today and do you think he will replace the 2 players injured at the same level or not. Or maybe better?

 

[AmexRuislip]

Hopefully he will given a chance alongside Drunk?

 

[n1 gull]

I hope he steps up and does a decent job, but if he makes a mistake or 2 I also hope everyone doesn't get too on his case.
This is definitely an opportunity, if he gets injured who is next in line?

 

[atomised]

I'm hoping he'll work quite well with Dunk. It's real bare bones in defence now, that said I think Goldson was signed with a view to Greer reaching the end of his career with us. It will do him a lot of good to get some decent game time in the next 2 at least

 

[The Fifth Column]

He didnt look any worse than either GG or Dunk today, a nervy moment when he lost his footing and slipped but managed to recover and get enough on the ball to get it away. Other than that he seemed content to keep it simple and not try anything clever. Quicker than GG and i guess we will see enough of him now to make an informed judgement.

Ridgewell will be in by that time we hope

He looks strong and quick, plus he scored goals for Shrewsbury. I'd be up for seeing him get a few games now. We'd shipped in 9 goals in the previous 4 games before today as well, I wasn't opposed to a change even before Greer's injury.

 

[sir albion]

He started a bit edgy,but improved as the game went on....will be a very good signing.

 

[Hampster Gull]

Physically he looks the part, so thats a start

 

[Solid at the back]

Rea's loan ends next week aswell

 

[Stumpy Tim]

As [MENTION=13055]Ninja Elephant[/MENTION] said, he actually scores a fair amount of goals for a centre back. He's clearly been brought in to be the long-term partner for Dunk, and from what I've heard he totally understands the situation. I'm looking forward to seeing him on Tuesday

 

[Luke93]

I opened this thread expecting another injury update...

 

[studio150]

Seemed less nervous than when he came on against Middlesbrough should do well when he feels at home on the team

 

[Soulman]

I just wish him the best. The fans at Shrewsbury had nothing but good things to say about him when he left. This is his chance.

 

[Deleted member 22389]

Let's give the guy lots of support on Tuesday night. Basically the way our team is at the moment we need become the 12th man.

 

[8ace]

I like what I've seen so far.

 

[Stat Brother]

I'm going to save some time:-

Boooo
Boooo
Boooo

He's shitehouse.

Boooo

 

[portslade seagull]

Here's hoping that this is the start of something good for Goldson

 

[martin tyler]

Obviously not the same level but he has stood out in the U21 games he played in. A big threat at set plays and adds height and pace to the back line. Tuesday will be tough up against D.Murphy but I think he's up for the challenge

 

[Giraffe]

I'm happy to see him come in for Greer.

Our defence is too old and slow and against he tougher teams in this division in the last few games it has not unsurprisingly been found out a bit.

Would be good see him form a partnership with Dunk that has a bit of pace. Both are big lads too so set pieces at either end will hopefully improve.
