Fair play to Nigel De Jong!

You have to admit that before the season started, you would never have expected him to feature AT ALL this season. But he's turning into the player that we payed £17m for.
Well Done Nigel.

i like him but were will kompany go

could you play barry de jong and kompany

leaving ireland out or leave swp out as ireland did play in swp position befor he came (badly though)

I always expected him to play a big role. But yeah he has been fantastic. I'm becoming less convinced that Yaya Toure would even be a significant improvement on him, he's been that good. Okay Yaya's distribution is probably better but it would still be a shame in a way if Nige was replaced by him at the end of the season, because he hasn't put a foot wrong and I can't see him doing either, he's a very consistant performer.

de jong......kompany

..........barry..........

while ireland aint in form we could easily do this and it will hopefully make him raise his game

How did he get on last night? In fact could someone summarise all the players performances for me please?

Hopefully, Kompany will raise his game, otherwise he'll be a benchwarmer. This is all part of having a big, strong squad though and we should be happy with the problem. Personally, I'm not convinced that Lescott is the best or even the second best centre half at the club, so Kompany may get his opportunity there.

Never have expected him to feature at all, are you sure about that? I thought he would play quite a number of games.

with ireland bang on form from last season, and barry also in the way... and kompany still there... i thought he'd dropped down the pecking order.

Vince may well play centre half some of the time.
