Wrong thread.

No he isn’t. Maddison is one of the more refreshing characters in the game.

Not sure. It’s going to be the first game of professional football played entirely on the half way line by both sides so don’t know who will win that or how many goals there will be!

That is bad, bad news.

Naa, I thought that performance was a bit over rated against a massively hungover City who were very much on the beach already and couldn't give a shit. Haaland was way off it. He then had some shaky games at the start of the following season/last season His real coming of age performances...

Joao Pedro given man of the match by TNT but we all know Van Hecke was the real man of the match. An absolute colossus! What a man. He’s up there with Gabriel, Saliba and VVD as the best centre backs in the PL now.

Gross I assume? It’s between Pascal and Joao Pedro for me. If it was a kids team JPVH would definitely get the most improved player award though 😂 Might be too old but I’d still give him the young player award, deserves recognition for his incredible and rapid improvement. I still can’t believe...

I think it’s because that ranking and those percentage stats are current ratings and from a week after the article was written so there have been two games since the article. Thing is with centre backs, data and recruitment analysts will say it is the hardest position to judge with stats as so...

I'm not so sure on that yet. Unfortunately for him, unlike England who have very few quality centre backs, it's the strongest part of the dutch squad. Van Dijk (Liverpool) De Ligt (Bayern) Van de Ven (Spurs) Ake (Man City) De Vrij (Inter) Botman (Newcastle) Are all rightly ahead of him at the...

I think just by the eye test we knew he had been our best centre back this season, even ahead of Dunk, but the data also back this up. Third best centre back in the PL this season, a genuinely remarkable improvement over the past year, comfortably our most improved player - he definitely...

Great stats. His progression this season has been incredible. Full credit to him, RDZ and the coaches.

That was incredible. It looked like he’d played himself into trouble and then plucked that out of nowhere, sensational skill. It was reminiscent of Dunk chesting back to the keeper under pressure. Fantastic to see.

Hard to believe that this is the kid that our players were noticably not passing to away to Leicester, less than a year ago. Unreal improvement. With him, Dunk and Igor as our CB’s, there’s no way we should go as long without a clean sheet again!

He’s obviously been good with Dunk but has definitely stepped up when Dunk hasn’t been there.

Magnificent tonight. I really don’t think it’s a coincidence that his best performances for us have come when Dunk is not there. He becomes the leader and leads by example. Our first clean sheet of the season, with no Dunk in the team and largely thanks to JPVH. His improvement this season has...
