Is he one of your twitter boyfriends? Hoedt isn't a Huth or a Shawcross. They're slow centre halves and they've had very good Premier League careers. Serie A is a league full of quick defenders. Miranda, Koulibaly, Manolas, Rudiger, Tonelli, Chiellini... It's a league built on defending. The lad is solid. He doesn't make many mistakes but doesn't have many stand out games (as you'd expect from a kid). For 9m when we're desperate for someone to come in as cover until the summer when we can get some first choice players in he'll be fine.
katieakita Posted 29 January 2017 Posted 29 January 2017 Think we have been linked to around 10 players today so fair chance we have a plan A, B & C sometimes people need to be given a hurry up
Max Power Posted 29 January 2017 Posted 29 January 2017 Being Dutch can I assume he can play a little bit of football rather than aimless hoofs everytime the ball is at his feet?

Looks like he's too accurate with his passing though. We'll soon knock that out of him. Just hoof it and hope! That's the Leicester City way!

Thats how i see it from youtube. He has a tidy touch and the long balls i saw were pinged to the wingers feet as opposed to hoofed.

Finnegan Posted 29 January 2017 Posted 29 January 2017 He doesn't even start every game for them, they signed him on a free as cover, he's got an estimated market value of 3m. Sounds exactly the sort of player we'd spend nine million on.
Thracian Posted 29 January 2017 Posted 29 January 2017 Abilities that will be diluted if he's as slow as Hernandez.

What a tool you are, he's the editor of one of Italy's biggest football outlets and writes for Sky and ESPN. Clearly you don't know Serie A as well as you think (from your bedroom)! Restricted again zzzz
Koke Posted 29 January 2017 Posted 29 January 2017 Shawcross, Carrager and John Terry are slow as **** but tthey've bad good PL careers, great career in Terry's case. I want my defenders to be able to defend and and be comfortable on the ball. Pace is a bonus but not a must.

Koke Posted 29 January 2017 Posted 29 January 2017 One more thing, Atletico Madrid discarded Alderwireld but he's turned out to be a brilliant defender. At £8m I'm willing to take a punt on this guy.
AmarteyAndChill Posted 29 January 2017 Posted 29 January 2017 Why couldn't we just offer Torino £15m and get pontus Jansson

The YouTube video posted on page one shows he's got ncredible technique and a beautiful left foot.
