Word to Birdman.
But seriously, he seems to be the caf whipping boy whose name gets dragged along the coals whenever announced despite him arguably being the best pure defender at the club, even as “5th choice” as some of you attempt to denigrate him with.
If you’re looking at CB’s here for individual errors, he makes the least. Positionally, brain-farts, stupid goings to ground for no reason, covering for partner, I’d love to hear counters to state he isn’t the best at the positives and the least likely at the negatives from the roster, so why is he summarily dismissed despite the obvious pros to his game and what he’s offering our ragtag bunch, who, let’s face it, all show they have plenty of mistakes in the comedic goals we concede?
On merit, he should be one of the starting CB’s with all the others fighting to play alongside him, but the reality is that gives terrible optics as the hundreds of millions spent on the others as well as the younger “for the future” age profiles of the others assures that can’t happen as we’re trying to forge a dependable pairing for this term and beyond, supposedly.
Anyway this should be a talking point because the criticism of his very name is daft when the clown car picks up and spits out all the other CB’s as and when it feels fit.
Yoro is excluded from this as I’m talking about those who have been here and active in professional games since Evans returned. Not a single one of them has covered themselves in glory, certainly not to be considered any level above Evans.
