To be fair, looks decent in a decent team. Our best summer business

Our most composed defender today. Two good games in a row now.

Victor the Great.

Quite simply, the greatest Swedish import since Britt Ekland.

I like his slightly cavalier look as well, it's cool.

Thought he had a very good game. Useful experienced and on field leadership. Good ball for Morgan's goal

He's quicker than I thought too.  At one point yesterday he was ever so slightly out of position and Bowen had a run on him.  He managed to get back and recover.  Very solid player so far for us.

Yep, looks to be a very useful stand in.

He's not quite added to the "not being very good at Man Utd doesn't mean you can't be excellent somewhere else" list, but if he gets through the next few matches without doing anything silly, then he won't be far off.

I saw that and Bowen is no slouch too

We needed a squad filling centre back at a time when we had no money to spend. To pick up a 31 year old with 73 caps and who is the captain of Sweden, and with club experience at the top level was excellent business in the circumstances.

Lindelof and Bizot are two much better squad options than Disasi and Olsen were in the same positions last year. More economical, and more competent.

TBF, if Lindelof was always being played at right back instead of central we might have a different opinion. The couple of time Diasi played centrally he looked ok.

So at least as competent, but still more economical.
