yes, unfortunately...

The metric of watching him play says he is atrocious on the ball.
....his natural inclination is to pass it back. A couple of games ago I was startled at the pass where he put DCL in on goal, but that is an exception. Whether he’s CB or FB, the tempo stops with him because he struggles to link with teammates. I remember earlier this season, we had a free kick on the half way line and he passed it back to Pickford.
i don’t think he’s mentally shot. On the contrary, I get the impression he thinks he’s better than he is. It’s dangerous when a player doesn’t know his limitations.
Do you think so?
I've always thought hes ok on the ball, but evidently not as good as he thinks.
To me hes not big enough and doesnt concentrate very well. They seem the big weaknesses to me mate.
Lad made a massive error, but on the main he's been good for us, but he chews gum so he's got a bad attitude and must be sold instantly.
People wonder why every good player we ever have can not wait to leave this club.
Toxic.
He is over rated by the fans but its a thankless task being partnered with that absolute dosser Chewy mc Chewson.
Yes our fans don’t deserve such all time greats as Holgate.Lad made a massive error, but on the main he's been good for us, but he chews gum so he's got a bad attitude and must be sold instantly.

Hes not mediocre, hes also not an all-time great.Yes our fans don’t deserve such all time greats as Holgate.
He’s badly mediocre and gets a bit of stick on football forums. Same as every player in the world.
Forveverblue is good people. he the balance we need he argues well.Exhibit A: the absolute state of this comment
£30 million to Spurs? Was thinking more £12 million to Bournemouth myself.Think Spurs will snatch him in the summer.... £30m wouldn't be a bad price on current form. He makes latter-day, "take-a-shid at Anfield era" John Stones look world class right now - one contract extension and he thinks he's the next Laporte. Easily the worst player on the pitch in the first half last night by a mile. Defeat was probably a better long-term result than another Arsenal-esque fluke that papers over the cracks.
I know I'm sticking my neck out, but it's Godfrey-Keane for me at centre back. Of course this goes way beyond just Holgate.
New LB and RBs needed badly, we have nothing out wide. Nothing. Just so sick of Digne being bullied time and again on the overlap, every time he gets it, some opposition grock just muscles him out and we lose the ball. Again.
And Coleman needs to can those 'hollywood' shots. Now. To say nothing of his increased immobility.
This is why I think next year is the one where we finally go, there's too much crap, and not enough time needed to get a squad capable of keeping us in the prem another year. Not even Carlo can stop the rot. This is beyond him.

I must have been at different games then Khal because the stick he got for making mistakes was definitely real. He may have had his head turned later by offers....but to be fair who wouldn’t? There’s been threads on here saying they wouldn’t blame ‘X’ or ‘Y’ if they looked to move on the way this team fairs. Why should it be different for Stones?The facts are his head was turned when Chelsea came calling.
Nowt to do with the Gwladys.
The Park End got on his back once when he fannied about and we near conce versus Spurs.
Hes not mediocre, hes also not an all-time great.
The lad made an error, it happens to the best of them.
I mean I suggested he would be sold in the summer a few months ago and everybody told me I was mad and he was our best CB.
