The the right support and fans backing him, he will do a steady job for us Jonny and Cags are very high class defenders , among the best in Europe. We shouldn't compare Dan to them but by normal standards he is a good and reliable player. There are many of his type in the premiership and they are vital to provide a balanced squad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STUHILL Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 Soyuncu, NEW CB, Evans, Amartey, Benkovic is enough. No point sending Benko out on loan again. Give him some cup games and see how he gets on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armartey has always been the man left out when people speak of those left from the PL-winning side. He was a January signing, and made 5 appearances that season, so earned a medal. I felt for him when he was left out of the Schmeichel, Vardy, Albrighton, Fuchs photo after the FA cup win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Big Dan but those boys there are on another planet to him in terms of contributions to the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxondale Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 Liked the look of him yesterday. He’s not at the Fofana / Soyuncu level, but he was very disciplined and solid. Ghana seem to think he’s a centre half. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheUltimateWinner Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 Good call from Brendan to play Big Dan yesterday. He did well. Like I said in the pre-match thread, he's had more solid games than not for us in recent times. We'll still miss Fofana, but Amartey is good cover to have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see anyone giving the ball away but it looks like Ricardo gets beat high up the pitch leaving Grealish in acres of space on the left. Thought overall Ricardo had his best game since his injury though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Daka in the 90th minute where he got onto the end of a long ball down the wing and tried to square it to Nacho on his own in the middle but Ake managed to throw his heel back at it, Man City pass it out and it ends up with Bernardo Silva which is where the clip starts 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 15 August 2021 Share Posted 15 August 2021 Confirmed yesterday what most reasonable people knew already, he's fine when he needs to defend but makes mistakes when he's got time to think about what he's doing. Traoré will cause better defenders the same problems this season. We'll drop more points from other positions until Evans is back imo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
