    ALways thought that was harsh on him getting the blame for that, he was * excellent that game man. Maybe that’s why it’s not remembered as it though.

    I think it sums up what he can lack at CB tho, against better opposition.. He would have out jumped Ajer tho too Tbf :56:

    HE got caught flat footed, he’s surprinsingly good in the air for me, when at CB. Cause he’s not at CM :56:

    Still a bit apprehensive cause he's no a natural CB, but strolled it again today. Fine there most of the time domestically.

    Guy has been completely professional for us since he signed, Always speaks well of the club & Scotland, never hear him complain about not being in the squad or the team. Just quietly gets on with it. Yeah , he has had a few long term injuries which limited his game time but i think he knows this is the best club he will ever play at and is grateful to be here.

    Far more composed and dependable than Jozo. Would start him against the scum.

    If Elhamed is too much of a risk at this point he’s a shoe in to start.

    Would have no real issues with it, he brings a calmness and composure in possession from the back.

    I remember it being a case that he never got his feet off the ground. Martinez got the run and jump on him and he got caught underneath. Much like Ajer for the Katic goal.

    Cool under pressure, great asset to have, doesn't excite but doesn't get excited either. Steady if not spectacular. Valuable squad man.
