Davide Santon (now retired)

This lad seems to guarantee at least a 7 out of 10 every game at the moment. Developing fantastically.

 

Always looks odds on to create something and beat players in the opposition half. Lacking badly on end product though. Needs to cross, have a crack. Seems to have Obertan/Gutierrez final third lack of confidence disease. Decision making as a team needs to be better, we over run the ball or make the wrong decision 8/10.

When Enrique left I didn't think we'd ever have another full back as good as him, Santon had the potential to surpass JE if he continues to progress the way he is.

Love watching his forward runs, always eager to get the ball and get forward.

 

Fantastic player.

What a player. If he can work on his final ball and decision making past the half way line then my goodness. A total athlete with pace to burn. You can see why Inter regarded him highly at the start of his career.

 

A right foot curler is on the cards.... we hope.  :)

He's improved this season, more consistent. Still think he's shackled being on the left though, we've seen him run into the oppositions half enough times now to know that he can't really supply a killer ball from that side.

 

Give him a shot on the right, we really need someone who can beat a man and whip a cross in for the sake of team balance, he could be that man.

One of the most consistent players within the squad.

 

Only thing he needs to improve on is his final product when he cuts inside the defender, gets himself into some fantastic positions at times.  :thup:

 

His positioning is somewhat suspect on occasion too but that is to be expected from a young attacking footballer. He is by no means the worst of these offenders either.
