#3 | Rúben Dias - 2020/21 Performances

[Saddleworth2]

Dias, for me, is the best centerback in the EPL. I've no clue what the fuck was up with ESPN with their midseason best 11 selections: https://www.espn.com/soccer/english...t-xiworst-signingsbest-young-players-and-more

Dias doesn't even make honorable mention.

What a crock of shit that is. He should have featured in at least three categories. No inclusion of Pep either.

Savage telling the truth tonight re Dias v VVD. Dias walks all over him and he is supposed to be the worlds best. I doubt anyone else will be mentioning it though :-)

What did savage say?

What did savage say?

Basically compared their influence on their sides and the effect on the player alongside them. Didn't, quite rightly, directly compare the two.

 

[Invisible_Goat]

He's an absolute beast of a defender. Him and Stones are the best in world football right now.

 

[Manchester la la la la]

This kid is the real deal
Will possibly be the best signing we will make in the next decade. Only 23 as well.

Has massive boots to fill to even be considered alongside kompany as our best ever defender but if he carries on like this he will be up there with him

 

[deano ou812]

Looking absolutely solid so far,hopefully it continues along with stones ..

 

[yankblue]

I would genuinely be terrified to be anywhere near him next time we concede one. You can tell he takes his defending very fucking seriously

Monster of a player

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Milk, water, juice.

Savage trotting out comparison stats of Dias and vvd’s first 25 games was interesting. A pundits who actually seems to have done some proper research struck me as a surprise too!
