His aggression to get to the ball is excellent

Not an exaggeration to say he's well on the way to being a club legend if he stays here for a few more seasons

Proper player now, his level has gone up this season

Agree and lasts said it would. Still improvement in him too and Kitching who aren't old at 24/25 for centre backs.

Agree totally. He has weaknesses but somehow he epitomises all that Frank wants from this side. The sum is far greater than the individual parts.

Think both him and Kitching have got steadily better as players. They have played together a lot and with confidence look a really strong pairing in the championship. They just need to keep listening keep good habits and both could play at a higher level.

By far my favourite player and I’ll admit, 13 games ago I was ok with selling him!!
He just heads, kicks and fights for everything

Good to see him fit and getting stuck in, he's improved so much this season. Well desereved MOTM for him. Kitchen looks a lot more solid as well, maybe having a decent keeper helps.

In a lot of games lately the opposition seems to make progress into the final third pretty easily (imho) which places our defense under a lot of pressure. Is it the lack of bite in the midfield? we have two attacking wingers and while they work hard is this why we're often exposed? Grimes playing as a 4th,5th defender does that not cause issues with him being so deep?

Can say that about most of the starting 11 right now.
Torp has developed especially without Rudi in front
Wright, Dasliva, Saka, EMC have all made notable improvement. BTA is an entirely different human now.
I think something has fundamentally changed in the dressing room, be it Frank himself, having the right characters not just the right players, the coaching staff. Whatever it is, every one of our players has found a whole new level of confidence and that is allowing them to play so much more freely.

Can't be true, everyone said he was crap

Don't worry, we're not selling anyone in January. I've been reading the squad value thread.
If Everton offered him 3 times his wages he'd want to go whether we look like going up or not.

If you look at the early days of our current defence, teams would target JDS with high balls. That has been stopped with improved form and Kitch aggressively attacking the first ball.
Thomas was the player that was least covered on the high press, as teams recognised his distribution was poor often resulting in loss of possession.
Bobby, like the whole team, has improved on his main weakness, namely his passing.
Very unlucky this season not to have more goals and assists. Is a beast in the opposition area.

Every agent in our team is. Would be stupid not to.
