Humble pie on this one - he was superb today and the last few games. Incredible last ditch tackles today.

Same from me. I think it's fair to say he hasn't been my favourite player, in fact I thought he was dogshit. Pep seems to have sorted him out though and he was immense in the derby.
 
Otamendi is a warrior.

Many posters believed he wasn't good enough for our club. He was good last season but suffered due to Pellegrini's idea of organizing the defense, if we can even call it that. Every defender would have suffered playing in back of a midfield two of Yaya plus one IMO. Its going to be interesting to see how Kompany will fit into the team. Maybe Otamendi will play RB? He has played there before.

I'm not a fan of the play acting so hopefully he cuts it out.
 
Absolute boss yesterday.

I love how he times his tackles and snaps into challenges. There was one on granny shagger in the first half that got me on my feet - the bald twat had taken a touch and thought he had time to turn. Nope!! Nico came from behind to get right into him and he hated it!!

For his size he was also brilliant against the living marketing stunt. Beat him for plenty of headers and bossed him on the ground, dispossessing him numerous times.

If he can keep his form up he'll become a huge fan favourite. He loves a derby as well.
