BoSelecta Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Pure class today, his distribution is on another level. That vertical ball he repeatedly drills through the lines is something else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Strong case for being the best defender in the league. Just does absolutely everything well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Not only is his defending imperious but his ability on the ball is outstanding. having him and Schar allows us to use the whole pitch to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWMag Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Can’t think of too many teams who have 2 starting CB’s who are both so good on the ball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 It's not very often you see players play passes you cant see from a fan's view, let alone defenders. He's outstanding for his age. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Imagine how happy this guy must be with the decision he made man. So glad it's working out so incredibly well for him. What a signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Some of the passes he hits out of defence are outrageous, a mix do perfectly weighted floaters and raking driving passes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 he's great but still not quite on par with woodgate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Only time he has been uncomfortable was the City game, which was his first game and against Haaland. Even then he was decent and didn't have a bad game. Since then he's been basically imperious. Him and Schar are a perfect pairing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Didn't see much of the game today (yet), but he is such an incredible player. Can't see him not being my favourite ever CB for us, he's already up there with Woodgate (who I don't really like, due to his injuries and fucking off to Real Madrid) and Colo, and he's only just getting started.

Best compliment I can give him is that I only notice him in replays. That's because he's never a worry, never a focal, never doing something daft and always in control. For me, I only ever see it in a replay as its too controlled and composed in real time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 We’ve just spent so well with what we have bought. Botman is just a monster. Some might say it was an obvious signing to make but it can’t have been, or others would have been in before us. Our scouting/recruitment department needs to start getting some credit.

Geordie Ahmed Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 He's superb, so dominant in the air and absolutely solid with the ball at his feet I just love the passes he plays through the opposition, it helps us so much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
