Davide Santon (now retired)


Recommended Posts

Showed today how much we have missed a footballing full back. Don't under-estimate the importance of that, he was one of our best players tonight although there were a few who had a shout.

Really adds something to the attack. Positioning a bit dodgy in defence, but that's the sort of thing that will improve with experience and confidence. The talent is obvious.

 

The thing that nags me is - why, if you've got a young, nervy defender who's still learning his trade, do you give him the added problem of playing on the wrong side for a right-footed player?

Accomplished, tidy and varied performance tonight, this guy has got the lot. He'll only get better too.

 

This.

 

He looks very good going forward but you can see that he is right footed. Positional its worth mentioning that he wasnt that great at times mind.

 

I would love to see him at RB if we get a quality LB in the summer.

His positivity, from the off, was definitely one of the catalysts for today's performance.

 

Fingers crossed for the future. :thup:

 

Yep. Nani had an off day and Valencia isn't a defender but he gave them something to think about defensively. Relieved pressure, kept the ball and made them run towards there own goal.

 

Jonas helped him out defensively obviously which will help him in the future. Get this lad playing week-in week-out and he'll be awesome imo.
