Popular Post Clever Fox Posted 7 August 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 7 August 2021 I've always been a fan of Big Dan. He's such a humble guy and willing to give his best for the Team when called upon. If you look at his run of games before his injury he was getting better and better each week, And then he had that bad injury. I'm delighted to see him back playing again and with more games his confidence will continue to grow and who knows. Every successful team need a Big Dan. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I thought the decision was harsh! He's no Evans, Fofana or Soyuncu, but put some respect on Dan Amartey's name. He's a good squad member. He's played Man City twice and been on the winning team twice! Really good post. Also, have more confidence in our set piece defending when he’s playing, one of our better defenders aerially even if he is not as skilful as our other central defenders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston. Posted 7 August 2021 Share Posted 7 August 2021 Amartey is fine at CB. Yes he's not as good as soyuncu/fofana/Evans Yes he's got a howler in him, like every centre back in the history of the game. Hard to judge him in that game though cos man City lacked any focal point in attack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 7 August 2021 Share Posted 7 August 2021 Love the guy but not sure we can rely on him to be an ever present this season if we want to make top 4. Won't be the end of the world and we need another body regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleolly Posted 7 August 2021 Share Posted 7 August 2021 He did well today but was exposed when Ricky P went forward and Cags went wandering they need to stay together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vardinio'sCat Posted 7 August 2021 Share Posted 7 August 2021 Big Dan has done it again, putting in another big performance in an important game. Despite the excitement over Benko actually looking decent for once, we know Amartey is decent cover at CB. Both he and Cags look happier in a 2, at least to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big part of Cags struggles last season was due to being in a back 3. Never looked comfortable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaspa Posted 7 August 2021 Share Posted 7 August 2021 Big Dan's character has grown massively over the last year, he's been through alot and now he's here shining with us on these bright days - after floating around CDM, CB, RB and the bench, the constant and gruelling injuries, groups of players coming in with high hopes and going; he's still here, part of the group, taking more and more responsibility on his shoulders ... the Chelsea tiff for example, it kicked off by the side of the pitch, they obviously had a problem with him and Dan came down from the bench to the sideline to show his face and protect Ricardo. A warrior. Deserves respect for his time here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozartfox Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 I think with Dan it is a confidence thing. If he has a few steady games early doors and we ALL get behind him, he may just get us through this difficult CB situation with JE being out. Well played yesterday Dan. Chris Sutton was actually very complimentary on Malaysian TV and made Dan MOM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon we still need a CB. The situation with JE is uncertain. Yes, scheduled for a Sept return but who knows from there. It's long standing problem, one that may flair up again, or (god forbid) end his career. If we get an injury to Cags or Dan (and, come on, it happens) then we are looking decidedly threadbare. Another CB would be wise, even a loan. And I imply no disrespects to Dan at all. He was comfortable yesterday, and looked up to the task. (He's becoming a really good passer of the ball too, some delightful little passes yesterday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 Big Dan is hugely underrated. He looks so comfortable and composed when he plays CB. Little alarmed by the photo on here though of his ankle in a bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 Brilliant yesterday but I still don't feel confident going into the season with him starting regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridFox Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 I give him his dues he did well yesterday. Although had the benefit of not playing against an out and out centre forward. I don't think he's the solution in a permanent back four but he's shown again he's a versatile utility player who can still do a role when needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Earle Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 Think yesterday’s performance by Dan settles a number of questions. Yes, he’s good enough to be 4th choice CB, at least short-medium term. Yes, he’s good enough to start 12-15 games next season. Benkovic’s non-selection and lack of any minutes tells us he won’t get a squad place for next season. So we need one, not two, more CB before the end of the window to be 3rd choice/cover for Evans/deputy for little Wes. We won’t IMO opinion invest in another CB because playing four at the back you rarely need a 5th choice CB, and should that happen we can press any of Ndidi Nelson Castagne or Justin (in time) into emergency service.

The other option would be to sign one CB permanently and get another on loan. Although not sure how feasible that is… My worry is that Evans is going to have a very stop-start season with injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lad1966 Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 He’s never let us down - we need to manage our own expectations. He does the simple things well. The the right support and fans backing him, he will do a steady job for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
