All the play seems to go through him on the highlights.

Interesting about your motm,he has been mentioned as quality a few times now,i imagine when he fills out he will be quite a unit as well.
if you'd been there Nelly, you could have seen him start a high proportion of our moves! Also Doncaster had quite a few attacks which he sorted out admirably - they certainly weren't lying down at any point.Nelly's Left Foot said:FantasyIreland said:George Hannah said:just got back via a curry to defrost - excellent performance - Tosin man of the match for me.

Would be amazing if he grew much taller but yes he has filling out to do for sure.But there is a real footballer in there.
I think though it's surely hard to be MotM as a defender in a game where the other team doesn't offer much in attack.

exactly the right place to post it I think!SunJihai said:Just found this on Karim Rekik loan at PSV. Worth a look as it has some short clips on some of his play. Apparently he looks really good on the ball, but has a lot of work to do with his defending, especially his positioning and tackling. Sorry if I'm not posting this in the right place.

A Progress Report on Manchester City's PSV Eindhoven Loanee Karim Rekik
How has Manchester City's promising 19-year-old Dutch youth international Karim Rekik performed on loan at PSV Eindhoven?
Half-Term Report
PSV manager Phillip Cocu could have selected Jorrit Hendrix or Zanka to partner Jeffrey Bruma; instead Rekik—a temporary option at the club—is the preferred starting centre-back.
For Cocu to start a player whose rights are not owned by PSV shows you how impressive Rekik has been in training.
Rekik's season was interrupted by an ankle injury which forced him to miss seven Eredivisie games, but he was immediately reinstated into the starting XI once he was fully-fit—another indicator of how much trust Cocu has in the teenager.
