2019/20 Yerry Mina

[Carlito]

I think he's better than Keane, but obviously much less reliable when it comes to fitness.

Seems unlikely that anyone is going to be looking to pay more than what Everton did two years ago, so I'd say there's a good chance that he'll be staying.

Not sure you can rely on an 18 year old centre back. Can’t think of the last one to regularly hold down a place in the premier league in that position. Think we need another season with mina hopefully injury free.

And therein lies the problem. Physically he doesn’t seem able to cope with the demands of the PL and if I’m honest struggles with the pace of it too. I’m not a massive fan of Keane at all, I have a number of issues with him as a defender, but I’d have him over Mina as he’s English and doesn’t seem as injury prone and in all likelihood is on less wages then Mina.

He has a buy-out clause doesn't he? around 60m euros.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

I think it's that they all had a mistake in them. Could be wrong but i'm pretty confident.

You could say that about any CB really though? Even Virgil 'God' Dijk has made a couple this season.

Yeah that's what I mean really. The insinuation was there some sort of racist undertone to people not thinking he's the greatest centre half who ever lived, I was just pointing out that there isn't.

Nope, English clubs don't usually use buy-out clauses.

Barca have a buy-back clause for 54m.

I think its safe to say they wont be activating that.

Soz, that's what I meant! lol

Well, that's definitely not getting paid anytime soon.

It was funny where he said that no one ever said such disparaging things about Heitinga.

He obviously never sat near me at Goodison during World Cup John's tenure.

6 goals in 24 games for Colombia with James hitting his bonce.

When you see james' delivery you can see why, i hope mina starts ahead of keane for reasons including that. He's better on the ball too, probably not too much between them with anything else.

so a start a player who’s not been as good as keane, because of his international team mate? lol ok mate

 

[Pabbers]

I swear our fans are so reactionary.
Keane looked ok for a while when playing 10 defenders...yet forget the last 2 years!!

Mina is a level above keane.

He certainly is, problem is one gets injured and the other one doesn't.

Mina played 30 games last season, Keane 31.

 

[Charles Plastusz]

If you combined the qualities of Mina and Keane you still wouldn’t be at even Craig Short standard, Craig Short was a distinctly average run of the mill centre half. That is a depressing fact.
