    100% true, Starfelts are normally the safe option.

    Very good again last night. No fuss, no drama, just defend's well and gets on with it.

    I'm fine with that. Its been part of his massive upturn in form. Good centre back pairing we have now.

    Only thing I’m worried about is how easy it looks for him in domestic games, reckon he would want an EPL move but hoping to * we can convince him to sign even if its just for another season.

    Love the fact he doesn’t allow himself to be bullied which both Ajer & Jullien were guilty of. Looking forward to seeing him in action against the Huns.

    Thats is a fair point. Given he is actually not that tall for a center back and smaller then either of the 2 you mentioned above he is much more physical then either Ajer or Jullien. Hope we can get a deal done to sign him to a long term deal.

    Mad how we signed him in the last minutes of the window. Season would be much different if we didn’t get him in

    I think hes one of the best defenders weve had since Van Dijk. Only really Ajer comes close to him. He is so solid and reliable.

    When do the USA announce their squad? It's so important for us that he's here the next few games

    That’s because both Julien and Ajer were very tall and slim, CCV is a tank. He has a ninja turtle back and two tree trunks for legs.

    Julien is very capable in the air but Ajer was never great in aerial duels for being 6’5 or so. I don’t think his positioning was the best. You also hear a lot about his ‘elite’ ball carrying but you have to remember he came through as a professional at centre midfield not centre back. It showed in his defending as well at times.

    Julien was prone to the odd nightmare game but had plenty of stellar performances as well. The Lazio games, Ibrox, Copenhagen away second half when Ajer and the rest of the team bar Forster went AWOL he was pretty much defending the box himself.

    Apart from CCV and Julien both being right sided I think they could make a good pair, CCV does a lot of sweeping in behind Starfelt who tends to attack the ball, Julien being good in the air should be able to attack the ball better than Starfelt. Although Juliens lack of pace does worry me and that was before his knee.

    Was a crucial signing.

    Said it at the time, we couldn't have left that window without signing another CB.

    We had been linked with him all summer but I wasn't that fussed about signing him. He was pretty poor for Spurs in the Conference League as well. Glad now we got him
