dazajmbo Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Unbelievable how important he is to us. 2 or 3 clear goal scoring chances for County last night, Souttar slides in and clears the chance. He just glides through games, it seems so easy for him. If we can keep him fit and on track he will go for mega bucks. Different class.

Famous 1874 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Quality player. Miles ahead of any other non OF centre back in the league. Imo he is better than Goldson from Rangers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Treasurer Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Thought he would be a bit rusty after such a long lay off but looks as if he's never been away. I think Halkett looks more confident with Soapy playing alongside him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthVodka Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Both Halkett and Souttar have been injured for some time so I don’t expect either of them are up to 100%, they should only get better. Souttar is a class footballer, a modern defender that are in demand these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Section Q Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Surgeon saved his career. A while back I rather clumsily relayed news that he was unlikely to play at a high level again. So glad to be proven wrong. The guy deserves a big move and a good second half to the season might just swing it for him and some big money for us. Both him and Halkett can be huge players for us over the next 3-4 months. Starting on Saturday.....!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambonian Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I feared for him after two very long injury lay-offs. I thought we might have another Craig Levein (the player) scenario whereby he gets long-term injuries before ending his career early. Not sure Halkett is an ideal centre-half, think him more of a defensive midfielder that is capable of playing in defence if needed but i'd still rather we went out and got someone else in to play alongside Souttar. Would've been good to get Jimmy Dunne back. Oh well, hope we find someone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invernessjt Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Delighted to have him back but I thought both he and Halkett were getting pulled out of position, hence the need for the last ditch tackles/blocks. This will improve with more games together. Watching last night I was fearing what Rangers would do to this defence on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Future's Maroon Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Top drawer centre back, prove he is over the injury and would not be shocked to see high bids coming in from down south. IMO the two arsecheeks in the west should simply be told to bolt if they even enquire about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portobellojambo1 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I actually thought he played really well again last night. Maybe it is just a quirk of the game of football or how football fans react, but for all the good that he did the only thing that seemed to generate a large amount of vocal response last night (that being negative) was a pass he attempted late on in the game, a pass of about 15-20 feet that was a bit rushed and went out for a throw in round about the half line in front of the dug outs.

The one late on just looked like a tiny bit of panic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
