Barnes23 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Magnificent, his reading of the game during a few nervy moments in the first half was absolutely first class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionOfGosforth Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Will be a mainstay of the Dutch backline for tournaments to come if they have any sense at all, miles better than most of their defenders and better than VVD this season. My only concern is the Toon though and this lad is the best i've seen. Defends like he's been in the league 10 years, just a machine. Best signing we could have made back there, him and Schar as a partnership are fucking briliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Has it all, reads the game beautifully, could outmuscle a rhino and can play it out from the back. The fears of his slowness also seem daft he is always just there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 He's tough to pressure aswell because of his two footedNess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I said in the match thread I'd missed the first twenty minutes and we were under pressure when I started watching. Botman was absolutely immense in that period of time and was largely the reason why we were relatively untroubled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 There was a moment yesterday when he snuffed out a dangerous moment, then pinged a goal into Brunos feet. Me and my mate where like "wow". Our recruitment team are fucking class. Wouldn't sell him or Bruno but both must be worth 100m+ already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King HTT III Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) He’s not slow, but if he had real pace, you’d be thinking he could be the best CB in the world right now in terms of overall attributes. Whatever we paid for him is looking like pennies right now, he’s going to be our Kompany type signing in that area of the pitch and Bruno our Silva type signing, not that I want to compare because we are a totally different takeover/development situation to City when they were taken over. More players like this please NUFC not your Robinhos et al. Back to Wor Sven, I love his switch passes, he turns back to goal, flick his head and plays a straight as dye ball to midfield on the deck or just calmly clips a lofted ball to Burn or Trippier.

Kanj Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Just wait until he gets a full season with Howe under his belt, he’ll continue to refine parts of his game where he’s going to look as confident as Schar on the ball. Outrageous talent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree - tackling is usually the result of poor positioning, and Woodgate was the absolute master of positioning. I once read about crocodiles being able to calculate optimum intercept routes between a target and its direction of travel, and Woodgate had that - he seemed to stroll to the ball, so good was his reading of the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWN Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 This lad will be the best defender we have ever had, if not already for me . Dont underestimate what he’s doing for Schar as well mind . What a team we have Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
