They are establishing a very solid partnership. Lets hope we can hang on to them both in the January window.

A fortnight is a long time in football :D

 

I've never taken to Faes. Far too many mistakes and seems to have a bad attitude get him gone asap.

 

Mad to think we went from Wes Fofana to Wout Faes in one transfer window :frusty:

 I have no idea why managers always seem to rate Faes over Souttar. One has the qualities you want in a CB; the other is Wout Faes.

Souttar is shit compared to Faes, lets not exaggerate here.

 

Faes is prem level when he can be bothered, the problem is that at least 50% of the time he's a complete calamity.

Faes is the better footballer; Souttar is the better defender. They're playing CB, not CM—I'd choose the latter any day of the week.

I don't think we ever saw enough of Souttar to decide he was shit

What a brain fart moment, totally at fault for their goal. He can defend well AT TIMES and be motm then others he is just a liability. I dont know what to make of him tbh. 

Been here for 3 seasons now and still as inconsistent and liability as he was when he first joined - says it all tbh - he is not good enough - okoli won’t learn bugger all from him and we won’t stay up with him at centre half all season

Brain fart moment and liability. Yeah that pretty much sums up our Wout Faes. That 3rd goal they might just as well count it as an own goal.

Evans was as bad towards the endlol

Yet, he is still playing at Man Utd.

 

He was “bad” because the whole team morale and tactic su*ked. It was on Rodgers.

 

He is worldclass. Class is permanent. Work ethic, concentration level, vision, game reading, positioning (especially) - all worldclass. He was let down by his teammates and the way Rodgers set up the team.  As I mentioned back then, we could not get out of our half and were making too many mistakes because in modern football, all teams press and unfortunately unlike Enzo Rodgers used Ndidi as the single pivot much of the time. We all know how that goes.

Don't think getting a game at United is really a good gauge for whether someones great or not at the minute

Got schooled and taught a lesson by Chris Wood today. Wood won almost every long ball on his chest or feet against Faes and then played around him.

 

Could do with a quality CB in January to play against a raw but potentially great Okoli.

Is Faes seriously getting criticism? He's been one of our best players this season. If we're calling out Faes then whole 11 needs binning tbh.

Mate, he's been awful since after 2022 WorldCup. Yeah, he's had a few good games—fair play to him—but overall, he's been poor. Even in the Championship last season, the number of times this thread blew up because Faes was dreadful was a joke. We need to offload him if possible.

Okoli in the Faes role and a better ball player to play the Vestergaard role. 
 
Evans and Soyuncu 19/20 style.
