"I don’t know if I’ve ever played with two players that defend with such desperation and get so many blocks in", says Maty Ryan on centre-back pairing Lewis Dunk and Shane Duffy.

That's nice, Maty.

“I can’t think of a better defensive duo and if they keep performing as they are, there’s no reason why they couldn’t play for a top team."

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Dunk probably put him up to it in the hope of getting a new contract extension.

I never realised that Australia were recognised as a top team. :drink:

He probably meant that if they keep performing as they are, we will all be playing for a top team :whistle:

I must say, the way the defence celebrated together like a Champions League Final win at the end shows a cause and a spirit rarely seen.

I can't think of a better defensive trio! Maty was absolutely superb behind Dunkin Duffy yesterday.

"There is no reason why they couldn't play for a top club like Manchester United".

Not the most ambiguous of quotes.

Wonky wording but I get what he is saying.

We have a 'Communications Team' at work who put out press releases and so on. They often quote staff - but generally speaking their 'quotes' are not precisely what we said. So unless we hear Maty actually saying this, we don't really know what precisely he said, or in what context. For instance, I know that quotes are often answers such as 'could D&D play for a top team?' - 'Yes'

Feeding off our manager seemingly amazed we're able to play at this level. Why shouldn't we be? This is an expensively assembled squad full of good players - let's have a bit more belief throughout the club. We're not Championship anymore, we are where we deserve to be.

It was what he said in the post match interview - I heard it on the radio on my drive home after the game. I thought when I heard it that it was an unfortunate choice of words!
