2018/19 Yerry Mina

[Tin-Tin]

Had a great game today he loves a battle

That type of game, all ariel duels and big strikers, seems to suit him well. Yes ge does seem to love a scrap

 

[Blue Piper]

Very impressed with Yerry today. I likes a good centre half.

 

[bluestevon]

Good game today and good goal, just needs to learn when to step - up for the offsides.

What he needs is a top class CB alongside who can organise him mate. Doubt either of the others are or will become that player.

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Off the starting blocks. I hope he gets on a roll now! Need his goals.

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

Brilliant today. He's the strong, powerful centre-half we've been missing since Distin left.

 

[DanB90]

Noticed at 4-1 up he was still pushing us up the field and bringing the ball out.
He was practically in midfield when he played the ball to Gylfi for our last goal.

 

[maccavennie]

Delighted he came back in today and lived his header as well

I have hope that Keane and to an extent Zouma could develop into that player. I think Zouma's style would suit him better.

It's hard though isn't it mate to go and find (and pay for) another lad at the level Mina could be at. I think Keane and/or Zouma could be that player. They are all still young for Centre backs. All are younger than Lescott/Jagielka were when they arrived here and for me are better players when they arrived.

It's not only about the quality of player mate, although obviously if matters a lot, it's about having someone whose a natural leader at the back alongside him, he's a bit wild, positionally can wander etc, he needs that lad alongside who grabs hokd of him and takes control of the backline.

Generally at Keane's and zoumas age it's already apparent if they are that type, neither for me are or ever will be.

Top performance today against a constant bombardment. Seemed to suit just sticking to the battle and letting Keane do the ball playing stuff.

 

[Rugby Toffee]

Teams like Burnley suit him , it's the sides with quick nippy players where he struggles a tad

Do you think Mina is a leader? I think he is.

For me a covering player with ;ace would be great. Zoom has this skill set.

 

[kev]

I thought he was immense today. Needs to show that he can do it consistantly now.
He could well be a real influence for this team in future years.

Said that myself after the City game, Zouma, Mina and Keane at the back, and not one of them took it upon themselves to show some leadership, they all just stood there looking at each other when the goals went in.
