3 | Rúben Dias - 2021/22 Performances

And who is? VVD is easily the best defender in the last 20 years. Sure, he only had 2 years at great level before his injury, but no other defender (Ramos, Vidic, Puyol, Terry, Thiago Silva, Bonucci, Chiellini, Nesta in his old years) has ever been closed to the insane level he had. Dias is an absolute beast, is a leader, has great positioning and timing, is solid aerial, has great blocking. He is easily a top 5 defender for the next 10 years.

Behave yourself

A bit shaky today but then he was playing alongside 3 lads he wouldnt ordinarily choose to,and behind a midfield with no legs.

No one, hence my post. He’s a brilliant defender and we are lucky to have him but he’s not perfect.

Give your head a wobble. He was fucking brilliant throughout and Red Adair could not have put out as many emergency fires as he did today. Especially the raging skip inferno happening to the left of him thanks to two self harming arsonists

He wasn’t brilliant for the goal, the little shuffle he does to get back into position just as Son shoots is him realising he’s not where he should be. Him trying to block it with his thighs leaves Ederson with no time to move.

He was covering for Cancelo’s bizarre run to mark a man who was already marked by Dias.

 

[Claytop]

He was playing alongside the worst 3 defenders at the club ffs!

Got to be Lazarus to look good with those and nearly managed it.

 

[Long Slow Goodbye]

Hero complex coming out again; has an awful habit of wanting to turn everything into a last-ditch, body-on-the-line block, when it generally doesn’t need it.

Thought he was good tbh. I think he was at fault for the goal though.

Red Adair.... that was Harry Kane's answer when he was asked who danced with Ginger Rogers.

I'm here all week ;-)
