Really?
He's a player, same age as Dav making as many mistakes as Dav, only saving grace is he cost a lot less.
Toby is slow, weak in the air and living off his first couple of years at the club.
That being said, I think our defenders look weaker due to the system that the hopefully soon to be unemployed Portugese "best coaching system n the world" genius is playing.
Well, all you are saying could be right.
But still, if I would have two options, that are exactly equal, yet one has been at the club for years and has only went worse over the time; other has arrived and got first chances - then I would not hesitate for a second before giving newbie the nod.
Basically you can get guaranteed awfulness or at least hope that he could improve in the future.
