Not in that position against Ward-Prowse though…Beautiful needlessly crunching tackle into Romeu today and got away without a booking - more of this please.

Even though he ocassionally comes off second best, and like today just goes to clatter someone for fun, his ability to push out of defence and stuff out danger is such a vital tool for us.yea he prob will get a red or two, but to be fair he does always go to for the ball and majority of the time he gets something on the ball. you just worry about him when hes on a yellow and they do him for going in with excessive force.
his anticipating of danger is what makes him the quality defender he is. he snuffs out moves before they get a chance to really materialise for the oppo, and hes one of the very best at doing that.Even though he ocassionally comes off second best, and like today just goes to clatter someone for fun, his ability to push out of defence and stuff out danger is such a vital tool for us.
Under Mou with Toby/Sanchez/Dier/Jan we just kept backing up all the fucking time. Teams were dribbling right through our back line, if not they could shoot from range with very little pressure.

Barca would need to sell off the rest of their TV revenues to afford him!Errr.... No; they're not.
Most South Americans dream of Barca or RM(*).... That's very well established.
(*Not North London and shitty weather for 11 months a year.)
That brings another thing to mind, where the fuck was Kane? Swear he's frequently not in the box to receive crosses.Him and Davies.
It was also notable that for the Dier goal the three players attacking the ball were Dier, Davies and Romero. They stayed up from the corner to provide that threat.
Vito has no banned him from being in the same half at set pieces to be safe. Seems to be working.That brings another thing to mind, where the fuck was Kane? Swear he's frequently not in the box to receive crosses.
Words to live by.
Romero's first ever tackle...
