Comedy isn't really your thing is it? ;)

Just once to be honest. Looks to have a good mentality i.e. when things didn't go right for him in the first half of that game he played strongly in the second. Never hid. Potential at 6'5 to develop into a dominant CB in the air. But I saw his pace as a concern to play at higher levels.

Taxi for Robins....4 seasons in a row now isn't it? I seriously wouldn't be trying to make others look stupid in your shoes.

Busquets is deceptively fast - fact. Henderson was fast (fact) - although not sure if he's lost a yard over the last couple of years. My best guess (opinion admittedly) is that the elite players mentioned including Keane, Henderson etc. are far faster over 4-5 yards vs. young Drysdale. Drysdale...

I think so but measured during game time - modern football is all about multiple fast sprints - it's on this basis I think that Mbappe is one of the fastest players of all time (i.e. top speed measured during a game). Arguments aside SlowerthanPlatt, I do think perception plays a part in this...

Your usual response of course when you are out of arguments. Your opinion is that Drysdale has enough pace to play CDM. I absolutely don't agree and have tried to point out that players you have referenced as having no pace (Henderson, Busquets etc.) are far faster than might be the perception...

I've just stated facts vs. your perception. If Drysdale does play in DCM I for one seriously hope he proves me wrong.

https://www.sportskeeda.com/football/statistics-barcelona-quickest-player Seriously life is too short for this nonsense!

Fundamental flaw isn't there in your statement - Henderson does have pace. And I would suggest that the other players listed have more pace than you might imagine vs. Drysdale who seems to me to have most things apart from pace.

Please don't tell me Sparksy that you are seriously comparing Busquets to Drysdale as a CDM to try to win an argument? For what it's worth I have seen him play and he's surprisingly fast; top 5-6 by pace in the Barca squad a few years back - although honestly not sure about now. Anyway pre...

This is very tedious - you seriously believe that Drysdale has more pace than any of the above? Henderson for example might have lost a few yards recently but he's been recorded at 33k previously; which is serious pace. Let's see Drysdale at CDM and you will see what I mean - but I hope he has...

I was speaking about CDM specifically right? Not CB.

All opinions KSB but there's no way you can play that position in the modern game at a high level without pace.

Playing CDM in the Championship - I can't see that it's the right position for Drysdale as he doesn't have the pace. Without pace you're going to get seriously exposed at this level in that position.

Don't get this at all. Kelly was very influential last season when he was fully fit. He easily stepped up to the level of the Championship. Like many others I see that Sheaf has potential but on the evidence of last season I don't see Sheaf starting ahead of Kelly at this time.

Watching the highlights, reminds me of a young left sided version of Danny Thomas. On that basis alone - instant favourite. Welcome Ian!!

You're losing another argument aren't you? So as always and true to form desperately resorting to nonsense to distract. Please have a day off and for once in your life stop embarrassing yourself.

Good job then that the taxis you've ordered with certainty for the past 4 seasons didn't show up then isn't it?

George and John dancing on the Wembley turf holding the FA Cup; one of the most iconic images in our history. And not many people know this; frequently went miles out of his way to call in on Jimmy Hill in his final years as Jimmy was fighting dementia. A Coventry great on the pitch. A huge...

Got to give you some credit Moron, your taxi for Robins campaign (4 years in a row now is it?) - hands down the funniest thing I've read on here. Kudos where it's due.
