2017/18 Mason Holgate

[GwladysBlue]

Pickford, Kenny, Holgate, Keane and a new LB could be a great back 5 in the years to come.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Holgate > Keane

Get a new CB up and have him forge a good partnership with Holgate, with Keane pushing them both for a start.

 

[Lanolin]

Thought he was excellent last night to be fair. I've not always been sold on him but if he carries on like that he'll be fine.

 

[Billy Dean]

 

[Cels]

Felt Holgate looked more assured and comfortable yesterday. Nice to see.

 

[Pabbers]

He has been impressive.

 

[hibbo'sclass]

Looked unflappable last night and great positioning.

 

[Zeke]

Mason hol'gate' like an iron one at the moment, keep it locked Mason!

Well done that lad

 

[granter79]

looks better in the air the last few games too. like to see him fill out abit more but that will come. Barking orders aswell last night , top marks

 

[Rugby Toffee]

Playing with more confidence , nice to see what a couple of positive results can do

 

[mutley]

As with all young centre halves, he just needs experience, future Everton captain hopefully.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Making that centre half role his own currently. Reckon he prefers having Williams next to him.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I think he and Williams are a good combination for now. One is a massive, experienced tank of destruction, whilst the other is an up and coming speedster of a center half. Yin and Yang, opposites attract, if you fro together, you bro together

 

[Big Fat Sam]

If he gets any better he'll be off to City for 50m!

Glad hes come good after looking like a liability at the start of the season (he was directly responsible for at least 4 goals that I can recall).

I don't think him and Williams have suddenly found a huge upturn in form I just reckon we're playing tighter as a unit - fullbacks stifling widemen more, defensive mids actually covering runs etc. which has made their jobs a lot simpler.
