Then I suppose neither are Evans, Faes, Souttar and of course Soyuncu (last seen being given the runaround by Fulham and Tom Fuching Cairney to the tune of 5 goals).

Like a politician. I can't find a stat for that. If they had one I'd have reproduced it here. But being the fair-minded chap I am - off the top of my head I can think of Fulham at home, Newcastle at home (giving away the penalty) and Blackburn in the Cup where he made a mistake leading directly to a goal. I'm sure there are plenty of other opposition goals where he was partially responsible, but over the course of the season he was no worse than any of the other muppets at the back. 1

I’ve just always disliked him and don’t rate him as a player. As a man he seems great but that’s not the point. I just have a lot more confidence in any of our other centre backs and would like us to use his wages to get in a better centre back. That’s all.

I've got no issue with anyone thinking he's not good enough, and a case can certainly be made for that. It's a forum for opinions after all. I personally don't think he was as bad as others. 2
