Did he tell you this last week?

 

Certainly wasn't the case for the three years prior to that however given how crap hes been I imagine there's a awful lot of backtracking going on 🤣

Nah just when he signed and before he had played for us. I’m only saying what I heard.

He hasn't settled in well but I think there's been a bit of an overreaction. He isn't a total shambles - and Soyuncu and Amartey were both worse than him on Thursday. I'm not sure who people actually want us to play...!

 

It's not scientific or anything but SofaScore's average ratings have Vestegaard as our joint 3rd best player this season (Vardy 7.40, Tielemans 7.15, Vestegaard / Lookman 6.90).

 

I know it has been a frustrating start to the season (and God knows I moan at times) but I sometimes wish our *supporters* would *support* the players a bit more... especially those who are going through a tough spell.

Its about fine margins this season, we mess up with a critical position and it effects the whole team, we have to score more goals then we let in, we could be out of cup runs and if we finish lower bottom are best players may want to leave and it will harder to sign quality players.

I don't think Evans was as bad for us as you make out.....

But, he showed at Man United and West Brom he was at the very least, a decent Premier League CB.

 

No matter how many years Vestegaard stays here and no matter how many training sessions he has, he will always be slow, have the turning circle of an oil tanker and be very vulnerable in a high line or 1v1 situations.

 

For the same fee we could have picked up Guehi, who has very good Championship experience for a guy who is just 21.

He's mobile, good on the ball, and would have been a continuation of our approach to signing progressive players.

For someone a bit more experienced, Joachim Andersen was available too...Who had a good season at Fulham last year, just like Lookman!

 

With a guy like Guehi, his 'lack of PL experience' MAY be an issue, some players can adapt to this level just fine (Ndidi/Fofana/Castagne/Tielemans etc).

But Vestegaard's weaknesses are ALWAYS going to be there.

 

 

Guehi, even if he wasn't ready, although he looks it at Palace, would have time to develop....Vestergaard already needs replacing next summer.

...he will  be, by Tarkowski.. .!!!

Our problem is not, we did not know what we were getting, it is just the way we now choose to use him, is where it all falls down.
