Facecloth Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 Feel like I've been suggesting playing him at centre back for years, who knew it'd work eh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxin_Mad Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 He is a great squad player to have I think. If he is content to be in the squad then he is useful to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldeagle Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 Clearly his best position is CB . Thought he was very good today not outstanding . What is impressive though was the fact he’s been out for around 2 years and played as well as he did deffo keep . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgfualol Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 Noticed he pushed high up the pitch to win headers and won pretty much all of them which lead to attacks. Thought he was solid today. Very pleased to see he chopped off that random bit of long hair that was flying around vs Arsenal too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he recovers his form he'll be a useful squad member this season. Hate to say I told you so but I told you so. Let's have some respect for this man now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s just another player where people just go over the top with criticism, see Mendy also. Yeah he can have shockers and can take time to bed in. But generally when he got a run people started praising him and saying he was going well. Then it seems to get forgotten. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox92 Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 (edited) Superb. Aside from when he lost the man once (from a set piece - not the goal) I thought he was outstanding.

If you watch it I think he is actually with his man (Rodri), and Ake is actually Maddisons man initially at the edge of the box, Maddison doesn't track Ake as the ball comes in then Cags misses the header as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was either the one that didn't count or one that Kasper saved. Ake runs of Maddison I think. I will clarify my initial post though.

sdb Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 Brilliant second half when he appeared to have been instructed to be more aggressive. He tends to look a little nervy, defensive, passive to me, but that was a big improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambert09 Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 Great option at cb for a 3. I personally think he’d struggle as part of a 2 though. He was good playing as the stopper and coming out early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegaffa Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 He was excellent today considering how little competitive football at this level that he has played in the last 2 years. looks good in a back 3 but would he be as comfortable as a 2 pairing cb, hope so.

Wolfox Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 He was as good today as he was bad Wednesday He seems like a lovely chap and I’m happy for him and delighted that he appears to be a CB option for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowlattsFox Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 Back 3 seemed to suit him. Lost Fernandinho fornhsi header which would have been game over but had a good overall game. He's great when he keep things simple, after all he's been through you have to be pleased for him. Still think we need a centre back but he's definitely done enough to keep him around.
