No he isn't. 

Think he's talking about Ricardo.

 

No context in his post though!

[Reg Vardy]

Agree and you are correct Ricardo is 29…..

[HarryDee8]

He's not upto speed yet. Struggling with misplaced passes

[StriderHiryu]

Unlucky OG, but otherwise pretty good. He is dominant in the air as we would expect. Reminds me of Maguire in his first season here.

 

I think he will get found out against the very best, like Kane, Haaland, Liverpool forwards etc, but can develop over time. Looks like good business to me.

Awful first half but settled in the second half.

Looks big and slow. Not sure. It’s gonna take some games to tell I think.

Compare that with Tete and Kristiansen who look tailor made for this level.

I'm not convinced tbh.

It's one game.

Won pretty much everything in the air but lack of pace alogside another slowish CB will be an issue with our higher line

[FoxyLeon]

Massively let down by Castagne, who was the worst player on the pitch. Did look slow, as expected, more Huth/Vidic slow than Vestergaard slow though. Not as exciting as the other two, but not terrible either considering he was badly let down by his full back who's the most experienced player back there.

This is definitely fair criticism.

[Lcfc-1992]

Probably the worst kind of game he could of made his debut in, a non stop fast paced end to end. Dealt with it quite well though, I remember Evans looked shaky against Wolves on his debut for us. 

[Lad1966]

Bearing in mind he’s not played for about 3 weeks, and showed early on, but I thought he grew into the game, in a fast paced game. All 3 new signings were good today. Well done boys🏆

 

[Nolucklcfc]

In fairness he’s just coming back from injury and it was a really fast paced game in the first half. He’s not played a premier league game before, with completely new team mates. Thought he did well second half, also made a brilliant tackle on Watkins. Good in the air too

[rachhere]

I liked how vocal he was - demonstrating some leadership qualities at the back. 

[LCCFox96]

I liked a lot about Souttar’s game today. Mainly having the rocks to jump straight into a PL debut after a few days training and an injury and deliver a big warrior performance. Kind of character we need right now. He was physical, won his aerial duels, defended the penalty box well, and put his body on the line. A good start.

 

My main concern isn’t that lack of pace, he recovered well a couple of times and Watkins and Bailey are very quick. My main concern is how easily beaten he was a few times when pulled out of position. That will keep happening whilst players get in behind our fullbacks but hopefully as the back 4 settles and steadies it will improve as it’s more a team problem than Souttar individually.

A chaotic, worst possible game to begin with. No structure ahead of him. He'll be of use when we play a more counter attacking game 

[SouthStandUpperTier]

Hopefully he can help stop Kane and Son getting their usual haul against us next week.

[ronnup]

He's young and has a lot to learn, surely Evans is first choice with Faes and he's generally for the future.

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

We need a big British bastard of a centre half. He did ok today and looks like he can improve further.

Evans is done. Time to forget about him sadly 

[Ric Flair]

Funny game for Souttar, I thought after we equalised at 1-1 and up to the own goal he'd looked really on it and was using the ball well.

 

Then after the OG, he was clearly a bit shaken.

 

2nd half I thought he was excellent, the game turned more frenetic from Villa's point of view in loading it in to the box and he'll have that all day long. He made one exceptional block at 3-2, not long after Faes had toe poked one to safety too. Both were heroic last ditch defenders today.

 

Early days and let's see of this pairing can work together. I don't think Souttar's speed will be an issue as he covers the ground quite well, but Faes is slower and Together that could be a weakness but let's see.

[Foxxed]

He's had a fairly big step up from Fleetwood to the Prem. Hard to judge currently.

Fleetwood to scoring in the World Cup was pretty impressive. 

[alanf0x]

First game in the Premier League, 3 days of training with his new teammates, injured for the past 3 weeks. Scored an own goal on his debut. 
 

Showed a great strength of character and exactly what we need. No more dangerous Dan either!!!! 

[Tanya]

Jury is out but it is his first match and he did some things brilliantly. That last ditch cross was class. And he is very good at corners. Good debut for the big lad.
