Daniel Amartey

[Charl91]

I'm an Amartey convert. Sign me up.

[FoxinNotts]

He played well tonight.

[Bozman]

Best player on the park tonight, lovely see him growing in confidence...

[lgfualol]

Gerrim in the team

[Marutimon]

I think trying to make him a DM, while he is best suited in a defensive role, stunted his progress. He should be a Leicester mainstay but as a CB or RB.

MOTM he was brilliant tonight

[Alf Bentley]

Where did that performance come from?!

He's had some decent games before - and some mediocre games. But he was seriously classy tonight.

 

Countless good interventions, excellent positioning, very comfortable in possession, dominant in air, some good forward passes, even a good dribble.... MoM! 

[Koke]

When did this guy becone so composed and assured? He looked good in previous rounds v Liverpool and Sheffield United as well. Where has these performances come from? One thing we know now is he is definitely a defender, not a midfielder.

 

Looked class tonight. If he keeps it up we might have a player on our hands. 

[harpendenfox]

Glad it’s not just me who thought he was outstanding tonight. Composed, good movement and precise passing. He wasn’t placed under much pressure, but a really good game 

[Vlad the Fox]

I had visions of him repeating that goal we all watched on YouTube before we signed him when he went on that run befor the dirty leeds brought him down.

[Sionnach gorm]

I think many of us believed he was capable. Tonight he showed it.  Hopefully he grows in confidence and experience.

[southfox66]

I've always rated, no nonsense player quietly gets on with the job, I'd love to see get regular first team games and maybe one day replace Simpson but doubt he get enough games to be taken seriously, probably sell him within next two seasons

[RumbleFox]

He has had so much stick since he came it is unbelievable.  He has always looked like he had "something" it's just been hard to quite see exactly what that something was and how it could be best used but from the start I thought he looked like a player with potential.  He moved country, came into the most competitive league in the world and played a bit part in a mental season.  Then he was thrown in at the deep end in a position just vacated by literally the best in the world.  He came into a team with the biggest hangover in history and struggled but so did everyone else.  He is still only 22.  I know Col will probably want him hobbled but he is, in my opinion, a great player to have in the squad and I truly believe he has the potential to be a Premier League standard defender.

 

Well done Daniel, we love you. X

Credit where it's due! Big Dan was solid as a bloody rock tonight. Appleton stated categorically that RB was his best position.

Don't be daft Rumble. Credit where it's due son...

[Tuna]

Sounded like he played well tonight. He's still learning the role we want of him and becoming more accomplished. Remember he's still only 21.

My tongue was slightly in my cheek.  But you have been harsh on him in the past.  Och, let's just hope he keeps it up. X

Criticised him as a midfielder but looked brilliant there tonight. Would be really nice to see him given time at full back

[Max Power]

He much better when the game is in front of him. Centre back or right back. Didn't put a foot wrong and used the ball nicely. Loved that burst through the middle as well. 

[Turbogre]

Immense tonight.

[RumbleFox]

 

Still one of my favourite clips in football history. X

Known as Big Dan now, won't be long before he's your new favourite player.

[Topman]

He was top draw today
