It may not be funny but it's a bad shout. What should have been said is starting over Walker...

Yes, please.

BOSSED IT TODAY!!!

Top class tonight. Quick, powerful, composed and excellent on the ball. Seems strange to say considering we conceded twice but he had a great game.

His enigma just makes it even more frustrating. I like him. A snip at £15m and has all the traits to be brilliant.

Every trait you’d want in a CB apart from one, and it’s arguably the most important…aggression.

I'd say he was aggressive tonight

I'd say he was aggressive tonight

I was working so missed it but that’s good to hear!

 

[TrentGrisham]

He has no business not playing currently. He's far from perfect but he's our most reliable, and certainly our fastest defender as it stands.

 

[TrentGrisham]

Our most underrated player. That pass to Nunes was KDB-esque.

I like him better than Walker as the RB who becomes a RCB tbh.

He isnt as fast as Walker but he is very quick for a defender, better in the air, and doesnt require him trying to play the Stones role which he isnt at a high enough level for.

Otherwise if Dias is out, then sure he can just play normal CB fine.

He had a rough first half, like everyone, but I thought he played some brilliant passes in the second half when he stepped into the midfield. He used his pace extremely well in the second half in some tricky situations, as well.

I know he's not for everyone, but I love the guy.
