Much better than I expected tbf.  

 

Same as Targett. Quite sobering really that along with Trippier, three defenders can look head and shoulders above our current playing staff. The first two not even being first choice for bog standard PL clubs.

It's mad to think just how little we invested in our defence and hoped to stay up. 

 

If you go back to the start of the season our back four had three players over 30, a pair of centre backs that cost a combined 11m, and two wingers as fullbacks. It wasn't like we were particularly ruined by injuries either. Lewis was the most expensive defender we'd bought since coming up. He was also the only defensive player we'd spent above £10m on.

Trippier will be missed, but following Sunday's game, Big Dan is the player I'd least want to see injured. At any level of football, CB is a crucial position in the sense that you can't afford to be weak there, and he added so much in terms of composure, intelligence and strength.

 

We defended a 1-0 lead against a good side for over an hour. This season, that feels like a breakthrough.

What an upgrade on Lascelles. Wasn’t expecting this.

 

Huge, huge upgrade. Lascelles isn't a footballer, been stealing a living for years now. Our left hand side is a complete shut-out now with Targett.
