Fair play to the fella, signed because Mings got injured then  only played the Cup games up until Pau got injured and has played his part filling in. He's not as good as Pau but he's stepped up to the plate.

Bit harsh making Pau Torres the benchmark when posters are saying things like best since McGrath/Laursen/Mellberg etc.

He's done well when he's played for us the odd mistake but overall he's ok.

He struggled when paired with Carlos but has looked good with Konsa and Torres, maybe they just don't work as a pair which is why the defence looked so ragged when they were together.

He’s getting better by the game. I wouldn’t be against him as future back up or in our case a regular at some point throughout a season.

He’ll be on too much money for that.

Yep.  But ultimately he's been pretty good and has turned out to be an extremely important signing after Tye's injury.  Fair play to the recruitment team on that one.

Yes, helped us out this season for sure but for the wages he’s on, he won’t be allowed to stay.

Amazing to think, he plays for actual Barcelona.

Given how the rest of the game was reffed that decision looks dodgy as fuck to me.

Barcelona are pissing themselves that someone else picked him up for a season.  He really is a poor defender.  Coming forward with the ball at his feet is his only attribute.  Poor in the air, not a great marker.  Several grades below Tyrone or Pau.

This is the worrying thing for me. Its quite clear thwy want the greek story- greek team wins in 1st major greek final. So we clearly wont be getting any decisions  over there.

Its literally gonna be 12 vs 11 . Add that to trying tk win by at lwast 2 to get it to pens.

He doesn't much recently though. Fucked off to Spurs last season where he started 24 matches in a season they let in 63. (Although he was not starting in the 6-1 loss to Newcastle, the 4-1 loss to Leicester or the 4-3 loss to Liverpool).
