definitely, one of the best young defender i ever seen, can play anywhere along the back, with good effect. May have to work more on his offensive side of the game though.
As a fullback, he would have to work on his crossing, he's not exactly the best crosser, tends to over hit his crosses.
As a CenterHalf, he would have to improve on his heading(offensive headers) and finishing. He had miss sitters like the ones against city and burnley.
If he can improve on these 2 aspects, i would say he will become one of the best defenders in the world. but then again, he's already a feckin good player at it is now.
