3 | Ruben Dias - 2024/25

[Dazzle84]

Great partnership with Stones when he first came. A knock on victim to Stones injury problems. Another one who's fallen off a cliff since the treble - did we make a deal with the devil that season or what?

 

[DMA's]

Talks a big game. Looks the part. Scratch beneath the surface and there isn’t a lot there.

Heard someone once describe him as a “very linkedin” type person. Think that’s a great description personally

 

[01cravend]

That's why ref wasn't having it when Dias told him he was covering Kova.. Zero pace.

 

[waspish]

For me I'd bench him no pace passing is poor and if you watch him live compared to any of our other centre back he is a nervous wreck!

 

[Damien10]

He was once our best centre back.

However he’s been very average for quite a long time now. He needs to get back to the level he was previously or he shouldn’t be starting.

 

[denTTony]

Poor again, like a carthorse

Lol great sense of humour there from Ruben.

 

[Chak19]

It should be Khusanov and Gvardiol as starters with Dias and Akanji as the backups, we'd have one of the fastest and most athletic CB combos there, sure Khus needs to improve his passing but it'll come, Dias and Akanji just aren't playing at the level required.

 

[RayCTID]

Don't write him off.

 

[Lavinda Past]

He's not a very good player. He's good, but his performances have regressed over the last year or two.
Certainly not captain material for ne.

 

[handsofstone]

Like a lot of players in this team he hasn't just became a bad player overnight

Feels like he needs a summer off and like a lot of other players needs to find that hunger again as he's looked shy of confident and has been really lethargic

 

[M Gaudino]

John Terry was the best centre back in the premier league and had similarly no pace. Dias also reads the game well but it is harder to get away with snide shit anymore.

our record with dias in the team this season is still way better than when hes out

 

[Rammy Blue]

Garbage

He got shown up when they got a manager who payed a high line! Can't remember the manager but they hounded him out like those players did back then!

 

[Gabriel]

Thought he was a lucky boy last night. If Kluivert had gone down rather than get his shot off, admittedly under minimal contact, Dias would have been in trouble. Pretty similar to another incident earlier this season but I can’t remember which. Do wish he’d stop that thing with lifting both hands and leaning back to suggest he’s never made contact. It has the opposite effect.

 

[Crooked_rain]

Looks slow. Had his legs weakened by Maya Jama milking his balls every day.

Can't blame him.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Garbage

You're talking rubbish

 

[Dax777]

I like Dias,! really do. Think he is a great teammate and motivator in the back. But wasn't too impressed with his reaction to Nunes's error.

 

[HypnoticBlue]

He needs to stop trying to impress his bird, that it’s his team.

 

[Gorbachev]

Khusanov will replace him by this time next year.

He has been massively affected by not having Walker bail out his lack of pace.

As a box defender he is class, but we don't play that way.

His head has been elsewhere this season, and I think we all know where...
