I could not agree with you more. Utterly insane judgements. He has not even finished physically developing yet. I urge people to watch the game that Kane scored a hatrick against Southampton. I rewatched it recently he is marked, for most of the game by VVD who is years older than Japhet. He makes Tanganga against Wolves look like Franco Barasi. He is woeful: weak headless and beaten easily in the tackle, positionally inept and scarily slow. The idea that within 18 months (let alone the years Tanganga has ahead to learn) he would be on the Balon dor shortlist would seem impossible. People do not learn. Same with Bale who at the same amount of games as Tanganga had shown far less.He is only 21. How can you reach such a definitive opinion of the kid?
You see flaws and no strengths. I see a kid that has a ton of potential that is capable of playing all over the back four. He is not a polished player yet, but the dude is only 21!
Seriously, no offense, but it is utterly ridiculous to make such claims about a player that young.
