My worry is that he's not a Pep type player!!...

He is very much a Pep player.
Very comfortable with the ball, composed under pressure and defensively is solid also.
Pep moulded Pique into the exact same style of player.
Forget about Pep though, Mancini is the manager.
Back to yesterday, I was once again impressed with what I saw he never put himself under pressure, he dealt with his duties well and showed good understanding with kolo.
He came under a lot of aerial pressure and didn't look like he was struggling at all, especially when in his usual partnership Kompany will deal with most aerial battles.

He's not made any crunching last ditch tackles? Isn't that in it's self a positive that he's not HAD to make any? He's always been in the right place at the right time so far

He's a secret weapon: the stealth defender.
the most impressive thing is his attitude and personality - he NEVER looks fazed or anxious in the slightest! always got that calm look on his face, doesn't hurry or rush anything, and best of all he doesn't smile ever (the sign of a top defender)
he is simply the polar opposite of Savic!

He's got Pique's passing but reads the game better than Pique.

didn't have alot to do, but despite of that i thought he had another good game... he will surpase his serbian friends vidic and ivanovic in the future imo...
He'll easily surpass vidic in the next 3 or so years. I think he already has surpassed ivanovicscout.reporter said:didn't have alot to do, but despite of that i thought he had another good game... he will surpase his serbian friends vidic and ivanovic in the future imo...

i don't think so... Imo ivanovic is chelseas best right back and best central defender... And besides, both vidic and ivanovic have been in premier leauge teams of the season several times, so nastasic has a little way to go to get there, and i am sure he will...Raggi01 said:He'll easily surpass vidic in the next 3 or so years.

I don't rate Ivanovic as a centre-half. His concentration levels and positional sense are sometimes poor.
