Killie game after winter break. Halliday kept his place on back of old firm win

Obviously the fact Gerard’s spent 2m on him and sees him as first choice left back means he’s gonna favour his own man.

But that’s not actually the debate. It’s about who write it in form , not who Gerrard sees/wants as his left back
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think Barisic is the far better player than Halliday but his form has gone alarmingly downhill in 2019.

And to be fair he has come out and said he has been recommended that he shouldn't play on plastic pitches by doctors following the injuries hes had. So you would imagine that has something to do with his omission at Killie too.

Barisic still seems to be turning out to be a bit of a pu$$y to me though. It doesn't seem to take much to KO him for a few games.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Don’t disagree with any of that. No doubt he has potential to be the far better player out the two but think that’s why pot of fans and even Gerrard at times gets so frustrated by his poor form

He's a talented player but he's not got the mentality or the testicular fortitude to play for us, sadly.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We're no writing Barasic off already FFS especially for Halliday who himself was written off about 3 year ago.

Barasic played well yesterday, at least better than most.

There's a reason Gerrard whips Halliday straight out when Barasic is fit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I’m not sure he does whip Halliday straight out , in fact he left barisic out fairly recently when he was fit saying that barisic needed to man up. So that’s simply not true what you said


----------------------------------------------------------------------
He left him out v Hamilton. As sensible a fixture as any to rest a key player

He's been left on the bench 3x when fit all season and we have only won 1 of those games.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Hamilton and killie then cos he defo left him out of the 2-1 loss to killie after the break?

I was just correcting your incorrect statement


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pay specific attention to the "when fit" part of the comment

I have. He was fit for killie away after the winter break. Gerrard said it in his interview on the game. Left Halliday in due to old firm performance.

Barasic was injured v St Johnstone on the 23rd of December, he was subbed due to injury.

He did not appear in a matchday squad again until the 27th of January.

So yes, i'm sure

He played in the Helsinki friendly at end of winter break. Gerrard states he was fit for the killie game but didn’t play him .

Except he wasn't fit.

You'll remember him coming back into the team v Helsinki, then going down with an injury at the end. Hence the man up comments, although he then missed the next game v Kilmarnock.

Not even in the squad. Injured.

“Given Barisic’s reaction, it looked he had given himself a bad injury at the end of Sunday's friendly win over Helsinki. Gerrard wasn't impressed, however.

He said: "I don't know, you'll have to ask Borna. He had me worried because he tapped the floor about 55 times but I'm not sure, you'll have to ask Borna but he looks like he's moving okay now."

Fast forward a couple of days, though, and Gerrard had declared him fully fit. When asked how he was the manager was visibly frustrated, answering: "Fine. We haven't trained, it was just a recovery day. He's fine. Nothing wrong with him."


Then left out of killie squad

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Well that's how it comes across.

I'm not writing him off, and even if so it wouldn't be for Halliday.

Ability wise he's excellent and has the best delivery at the club, it's the mentality that's the issue but that can be worked on and you'd hope there was access to some decent psychologists at the club.

posted on 4/3/19

Left out of Killie because he was injured and hadn't played a competitive game in over a month and your using that to show that Halliday gets picked over him

Barasic is undisputed first choice LB as much as you don't like it

See my last post with quotes from Gerrard saying he was fit.

As I suspected , you hadn’t actually read them and that’s why you’ve continued with this pile of dung.

So now we’ve established barisic hasn’t always been brought straight back in for Halliday when fit as you claimed, can we move on ?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
When has his mentality let us down?

He's got issues with plastic pitches as do loads of footballers. I've never thought there was an issue with his mentality, it's only been raised as a point since Gerrard had the moan about him going down v Helsinki.

I've not seen him shirk a challenge either.

‘Morelos cannot won now because of his reputation.’

It’s nothing to do with a reputation, it’s to do with his actions. All forwards get fouled, manhandled, etc-but Morelos is the only centre forward in Scotland that regularly kicks players and gets involved when there’s no need.

Aberdeen had 12 fouls yesterday and got 4 booked. Rangers had 16 fouls and 1 booked-which was Morelos for diving if I’m correct?! Goldson gave away a penalty and fouled a player that then had to get subbed and didn’t even get booked for it.

Mental.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The stats you have quoted back up exactly what I saw yesterday.

Aberdeen got away with loads - multiple obvious fouls going unpunished. Then later on in the game the ref seemed to start punishing them and booking Dons players.

Goldsons foul for the penalty was completely accidental. GMS came round on his blind side and he caught him as he went to clear the ball. It was an unfortunate foul and a penalty but there was zero intent so not sure why he should be booked.

Not every foul is a booking. And just because a foul is in the box it doesn't make it a booking.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You have a very odd view of things.

And just for clarity, I didn’t say it should have been a booking, I’m merely pointing out that possibly the worst challenge of the day didn’t merit a booking. Intentional or not.

Not every challenge you see is a foul. Especially because it happened against rangers.

But the stats don’t back you up-they do show that the Aberdeen players were punished for fouls, but rangers players weren’t. I’ll leave it at that.

It doesn't, Halliday played whilst he was injured and at best a game after where his fitness is disputed.

He'd been out for a month, played a few mins in a friendly in which he ended up howling in pain and you think he's fully fit and it was down to Halliday that he didn't play.

Come on.

posted on 4/3/19

Also your quote in which you claim Gerrard said he is fully fit doesn't say that at all.

It says "he's fine" which is a lot different from he's fully fit

posted on 4/3/19

Thought he was brilliant in his first run of games. Looks like he has all the tools to be a real top class lb.

Was terrible yesterday. Tav was also poor though, neither seemed to be supporting on the overlap as they usually do. One of the only times Tav did was in the build up to Aberdeen pen. Suspect it was Gerrard holding them back.

It wasn’t the worst challenge of the day, that was Shinnies. Which was obviously a dangerous one.

Goldsons was just clumsy. Boy had a dead leg fs.

Cosgrove got away with a dive. Maclennan was lucky Candeias didnt go down after a professional foul, as in a straight kick to try bring him down on the break. Morelos should ya e had a pen too for an obvious foul start of second half. Never mind a couple other obvious barges.

Yes mate the best evidence I can give is the manager who picks the team saying barisic was fit and he chose Halliday. Which contradicts completely your earlier statement.

I rest my case

He's been withdrawn from games against Killie and Hamilton due to the plastic pitches.

‘So the best evidence you can give is Gerrard said he was fit.’

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

He’s also got a report from Dr Shipman giving him the all clear.
