Thats not surprising.Per Matt Barlow Danso is one of the players that has stepped up within the dressing room recently.
Good to see one of the actual adults in the dressing room act like one.

Dav really wasn't as bad as made out, it's just when he made a fuck up it was a big noticeable shocker.
I think the issue with Dav was largely mental.He had the tools to be a top player - occasionally he'd get a surge of confidence and suddenly start doing skills in the box and pinging passes around - but when the pressure was on he looked like bambi on ice. The highs were high but he was liable to fall apart at any given moment.Dav really wasn't as bad as made out, it's just when he made a fuck up it was a big noticeable shocker.
But what summed the fans up was a 3-2 win over Villa when Toby had a fucking disaster, og, easily out jumped for Villa's seconds and Grealish had him the entire 90, yet this board decided Dav was at fault.

Yep those 4 in particular are giving it everything and I would also add Sarr and Souza.Love him.
Danso, Archie, Richy and Solanke have stepped up the last few weeks.
Richy or Danso should be given the captaincy at this point
He is Michael Dawson, He is Harry Maguire, He is James Tarkowski, He is Nathan Collins.He's a decent third choice cb, mostly plays well, odd poor performance and not fantastic in the ball but usually solid
James Tarkowski is a wonderful footballer. The others are far more limited on the ball than him.He is Michael Dawson, He is Harry Maguire, He is James Tarkowski, He is Nathan Collins.
He is a solid blueprint for defence for teams that can't go all out possessional attack.
We are in a situation where we must get basics done right, first.
A Puskas award goal from Van de Ven means fuck all if he's out of position 80% of attacks against us.
Leicester city won the league with two players just like him. Not a line-breaking speed monster in sight. You dont need 11 world class players to win things. Danso is actually a better pure defender than the two 'star centerbacks' of deeply dubious commitment that have repeatedly let us down. I think even the fan Bois can't still be pretending Danso hasn't been more responsible for getting us points when it's mattered than the others. If we don't make it and do cash in (or as Waddle suggest get rid any ways)a post Romero VDV Vicario world the bloke has to be considered as captain.He is Michael Dawson, He is Harry Maguire, He is James Tarkowski, He is Nathan Collins.

Make him captain
Mourinho shattered Dav’s confidence being a complete prick saying how he targeted and outwitted him!I think the issue with Dav was largely mental.He had the tools to be a top player - occasionally he'd get a surge of confidence and suddenly start doing skills in the box and pinging passes around - but when the pressure was on he looked like bambi on ice.

Danso's more of a solid meat and potatoes guy. 6/7 out of 10 most games and decent penalty box defender.
