Proper shambles
 
Nathan Collins any good?

I thought he'd be a good option when he moved from Burnley to Brentford (and before that he was at Stoke).

Good solid CB, probably HG, with decent passing skills. can play LCB and RCB. Never seen any hype around him - but would be an upgrade on Dragusin in terms of passing skills. He's said to be versatile but not sure he's played much anywhere other than CB.

He never has anything interesting to say really, it’s all ad hominem and arguments. He’s never going to suggest a player we should buy or a tactical tweak we should make. He’s just going to call you stupid or biased or whatever.

He never has insight on football or new players he’s just trying to bait people into cunt-offs. It’s a waste of time and I encourage just putting him on ignore, it makes the site experience much better.

My guess is that Frank sees him as a leader in the back line.

It's kind of ironic that you're saying this to the Gold medal holder for exactly what you're accusing airfixx of.
 
On Collins - he’s excellent in the air, durable, hard nosed, proper PL CB. Fine player. But imo not really an upgrade on Danso at all (possibly Radu, I’m not sure how he’ll recover from that injury). He’d be decent I suppose, but imo less concerned about the player and more what it tells us about Frank’s assessment of our squad.

What it would signify to me is Frank wanting to play more of a Back 3. Micky was born to play that LCB role and Romero the RCB imo. Could be a telling link about our tactics.
