Our best defender by a mile but thought he needed to play 5 out of 7 to stand a chance of staying. Too high risk to offer a contract and time for him to move on. Not sure I would agree on “by a mile”. I think one thing that really does not help his cause is that Vyner, Atkinson and Naismith are all certainly good enough for Championship level and even Pring - whilst not a natural - is good enough that my main frustration with him at centre back is the fact he is not playing at left back. Kalas probably is our best defender but the others are good enough that I don’t think a fit Kalas would have massively impacted on our league position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's injured again, nothing more 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t disagree that the others are good enough but just my opinion he is the next level up as Man City proved. All ifs and maybes as to as whether that would have improved our league position but if fit he plays above any of our other options. Is he worth the risk on a reduced contract then it’s a no as we are not wealthy enough to take those risks anymore, hence it’s a no from me. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t see him having a long term future with us. Can actually see him going in the summer if we get an offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
