Was canny, although should have done a lot better on Drogba for that goal.

 

I think that's the only thing which counts against him as a long term CB.He's got a great leap, but up against a big forward who is good in the air he will sometimes get overpowered.

 

To be fair there probably not many defenders throughout world football  who haven't been done in the air by Drogba one or twice.

He's got to be one of the worst left backs we've had when he plays like he did today, that performance was as bad as you'll ever see.  Again, like Alnwick, we did nothing about it.

Lacks the pace to be a LB.

His size aside there's nothing to think he won't make one hell of a CB with time, coaching and the right partner.

 

You're kidding me. With the right coaching, partner and plenty of time, he can become an adequate, average, regular Premiership defender who can start a few games on the run and deputize for better CBs when required. There is absolutely fuck all to suggest he would be come "one hell" of anything. Just compare him to other "one hell" of CBs his age, and you'll find names like Woodgate, Rio and MYM, who in flashes looked miles beyond their years at that age.

 

Dummett has always looked like there is an average, mediocre player in there somewhere. We need to be a little more realistic here and aim a lot higher when it comes to snagging quality CBs for our club.

Said- fucking well said! 10 years ago we wouldn't have to accept at best a 4th choice starting so why now

He's 23, man. You're basically suggesting he'll do nothing but stagnate and even regress from this point. Brainless.

Yeah, snagging quality CBs for 'our' club sounds completely realistic.  :lol:
