Comfortably man of the match for me. Mopped up absolutely everything.
Quite possibly, but no doubt when next he is injured the fans will go back to pretending that he is Klavan level.
If his body had held up he would probably already be recognized as one of the top defenders in the game.
England's best center back.
Nah if he keeps this up for the season he'll start I reckon.And yet ridiculously, he’ll still be sat on the bench at the World Cup.

I'm not English so the shitter the betterI wouldn’t bet on it mate. That twat Southgate seems to love Cahill for some reason.
It shouldn’t be (and hopefully won’t be) but I can see Stones and Cahill starting.

Will he? Southgate said he's England best centre back and he starts when he's fit.

He's better on the left of the back 2, he had a decent run there under LVG circa 2015.
He's looked like John Terry in the first half to me; he kept the ball moving nice and simply, made a few decent interceptions. He's always got a bit too giddy in chasing the ball, but if Jose can instill some positional and decisional intelligence, and his body hold up, he will be widely accepted as England's best defender by the World Cup.
He's taken a lot of abuse in the post-Ferguson wilderness, but he really does have a lot of class once he's got some continuity.
The fact that Jones has played 19 games in the league but not a single game in any other competition kind of shows that Jose rates him very highly and is trying his best to preserve him. The one major injury he had this season came with England
