Mason Holgate

What a back 3 we are building once Galloway returns!

I actually like Galloway , hope we do bring him back

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Better than Stones.

Pep should get some videos on Holgate, sit Stones down to show him how to defend.

 

[blueloon]

He's actually looking very comfortable at PL , something you wouldn't have said of him eight months ago, but he's taken his chance and grown with it. A couple of times he did a turn with the ball and passed it , something not unlike Stones, next time he hoofed it up the field for Rom to chase, very unlike Stones. Playing as a CB in the Premier League at 20 years old is no mean achievement , lots more development ahead of him .

Excellent performance, had to hang in 1st half against Aguero but 2nd half he was absolutely faultless

Shirt should be his to lose now.

Holgreat.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Way way better than Stones. Muted City's high priced stars.

 

[AaronTheBlue]

We need to keep him in that back 3

 

[ToffeeDoug]

Under normal circumstances his performance today would be the stuff we would rave over, such calmness on the ball, not scared to look for a pass yet always does his defensive work first and foremost.

 

[BurnhamBlue]

He got caught the wrong side a few times, but against world class players like Aguero, Silva and De Bruyne you'd expect that.

Given that, he was very composed on the ball. Good defending at times, and gave Coleman the piece of mind to get forward a lot.

The boy has a bright future. And he can look at Stones, and see what the game doesn't need in a central defender.

 

[Joey66]

He gave us pace at the back - which worked imagine Jags there today?

 

[bigjonny]

Better than Stones.

That's what a Barnsley lad said to me before the pre-season game, I think he'll be proved right.

 

[Brennan]

Don't think he was fantastic today, they had a lot of joy down that side of the pitch first half.

Considering his age and the fact he has been thrown in he did well.

 

[MACCA75]

Might turn out to be the best thing Roberto did, signing this lad. Well, along with Rom.

Progressing nicely.
