MPH Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 2 hours ago, SO1 said: It's his place to lose now. I'm sure Rodgers loves his aggressiveness teamed with his ability on the ball. Looking forward to when Benkovic gets back at the end of the season. Battle Royale. it’s starting to read like an old game of football manager... we are accumulating so many good players to play in the same position it’s almsot becoming painful.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant bit of recruitment from us there. and they have to face Vardy every damn day. Sounds like worker abuse to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzie the Fox Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 (edited) Good on the ball and not slow, in fact pretty pacey for his position. Im very happy going into next season with our centre halves.. its for sure a position we are not short on .. and like i think someone mentioned earlier we still have Benko to come in and prove himself. Still needs to work on staying focused for the whole 90 mins but that will come with more gametime Edited 6 April 2019 by Suzie the Fox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked so good on the ball. Especially that one run in the first half that I thought he would give Chilwell a run for his money. Maybe Brendan will do the "Dutch" thing with him.

murphy Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 2 hours ago, South Shire Fox said: Thought he played okay but still see him as abit of a bomb scare, i.e that misplaced square pass which they should have scored from! Benkovic would be my choice to challenge Maguire and Evans next season. That doesn't worry me. 22 (I think) is really young for a centre half. He has a great deal of talent and ability. That can't be coached. The mistakes will go with experience and time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is super young and he is an international, he will do well if he gets a spot but like i said earlier in the thread we are pretty full in that area. Will be different if Maguire leaves though ofc.

Wizerud Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 Thought he was Maguire-esque today. Commanding and imperious most of the time, unlucky penalty given against and just when you’re least expecting it produces a howler of a pass. Hopefully Harry does stay but if he goes Soyuncu will slot right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenTheFox Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 The way he brings the ball out of defence really reminds me of Maguire. He's a bit rough around the edges but he has all the attributes to be a top class central defender. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegaffa Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 Love the aggressive nature in the way he wants to be first to the ball even whilst marking a player. I honestly believe that he is already better positionaly than Maguire is, in the few times that I’ve seen him play granted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 6 April 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 6 April 2019 Will be a travesty to see one of him and Benkovic 4th choice next season and the other out on loan again. With Tielemans price rocketing every minute the man smiles and breathes, we really ought to be engineering Maguire's departure for anywhere north of £50m and throw the lot at Youri if needs be. Soyuncu and Benkovic will be more than good enough to support Evans and Morgan. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosbehFox Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 He will make a mistake a game until the experience comes. That’s football though. Tends to me rash sometimes when no need too. There’s something there, will it happen here...still time to find out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldeagle Posted 6 April 2019 Author Share Posted 6 April 2019 (edited) I know he’s made a few mistakes which people like to keep bringing up but most of a defenders have especially Maguire and Wes Edited 6 April 2019 by baldeagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueharmie Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 Solid in parts and dodgy in parts.needs to stop giving the ball away across his own box , seen this a few times. He has potential and Rodgers will work with him . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovejoy Posted 6 April 2019 Share Posted 6 April 2019 Worth bearing in mind for those highlighting mistakes that he’s had no continuity with first team games all season. Penalty was a farce, with consistent games he could be a real player. Needs a trim though ?. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vardinio'sCat Posted 7 April 2019 Share Posted 7 April 2019 Glad he got some minutes and looked decent, hopefully Brendan has seen that Soyuncu has a lot to offer. Given that Evans isn't going to play every game and Wes is cover next season, we do need quality in depth at CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably could make a nice profit on Evans if Brendan had confidence in the young lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeg67 Posted 7 April 2019 Share Posted 7 April 2019 Quote “A special mention today to Cags, our centre half,” said Rodgers. “He was only told this morning he was playing and that is testament to him. I thought his performance, apart from a loose pass at the end when he was tired, was outstanding having not played for five months. He was very good and it was a very good team performance and to score four goals in the Premier League is never easy.” 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
