I like him as well mate but that is very wild lolHe's probably the best young defender in the country. Was in Southgate's provisional England squad for the Euros.

Distin was good in the air, pacey, good positional sense, plus he had one massive plus Ben doesn't possess. That is, an equally reliable in every sense partner in Jags. That, plus the fact both were settled in their positions and knew exactly each others strengths and weaknesses.Distin was great in the air and read the game very well, two key attributes for a centre back that Godfrey doesn’t possess. I disagree about Godfrey being good at CB, I’ve never felt comfortable with him there, he is very flawed.

Spot on what I was going for as well - Distin was a pace merchant at best and a decent defender second, but he had the absolute reverse in Jags as a partner.Distin was good in the air, pacey, good positional sense, plus he had one massive plus Ben doesn't possess.

I get the feeling the point of a settled, reliable partner being key is the point @DualityNSNO is alluding to, though of course I have read it wrong.
Tbh he's not a left back and he only played there for us because of no one else to fill in.and he played him at left back in the friendlies and he was absolutely terrible!
He’s 24 and people are still debating what his position is. He’s not the best young defender in the country..
I feel a bit sorry for the lad to a degree. He has been at the club for eighteen minutes, played under forty two different managers with totally contrasting styles of play in twenty seven different positions each with a different role to play, has missed six years this season alone through illness and injury and has aged nineteen years.Spot on what I was going for as well - Distin was a pace merchant at best and a decent defender second, but he had the absolute reverse in Jags as a partner.
Godfrey has played with everyone at CB for a game or two, left back for a bit, right back for a bit... Not the lad's fault obviously, but I'd prefer we settle at something any time soon ffs, and I hope that we don't settle in the Championship instead lol
If Dias played here he'd be turbocrap fwiw.He is the same age as Ruben Dias. What is the cutoff point for young prospects these days?

I'm still hoping Kieran Dowell comes good
Still think young Matty Pennington has a big future in the game.
