    He absolutely can. Starfelt was good defensively, as is Scales, and had some very dodgy moments in games.

    If Starfelt was asked to be as progressive on the ball as Scales is, everyone would slaughter him. Ange system made it easier for the defenders to find a pass than it is under Rodgers. Those dodgy blind back passes gave me nightmares and I was a fan of his overall.

    Starfelt was faster but that's about it.

    He can't. Starfelt and CCV as a partnership barely lost a game together, and Starfelt had far less poor moments than Scales.

    Disagree with the poor moments. Starfelt had plenty of dodgy moments.

    Also Scales has lost just 1 of his last 40 domestic games, regardless of partner, so his record holds up.

    He's definitely been our best player this season. Certainly most consistent.

    Agreed he has played better recently but he still has nightmare passes in him.
