    yeah we ain't had 2 proper ball playing center backs that could defend and play football as well as a midfielders at the same time... maybe ever in our history

    quality centre backs with vvd being the best but denayer a promising star of the belgium international team of the future.

    them leaving is by far the biggest reason for the degradation of our form since last year

    Genuinely think we had one of the best centre half partnerships in the UK last season. Difficult to think of a pair better than them in the Prem.

    Huth and Morgan one of the most formidable and physical centre half partnerships I've ever seen. They're outstanding. But aye, VVD and Jas were amazing.

    Never seen a defence decline so quickly.

    Felt so comfortable with them at the back for the vast majority of last season. Both provided us with everything you need in a partnership. If VVD * up Denayer would be there with his excellent positioning and tackling, if Denayer * up (rare) VVD would be there to bulldoze the * out the way.

    Totally agree, vvd was probably the best centre back we've had in a lifetime- denayer will go on to be a star. Boyata and simunovic are a work in progress and a few levels below vvd and denayer.
