    I know a couple of season ticket holders at Brighton who like him and say he's a leader, reliable and strong..

    Sounds exactly what we need.

    Can only judge him based on what I’ve seen him do in an Ireland shirt. If he can replicate those performances for us then we are onto a good thing.

    Hes not fast. But we wouldnt be buying him for that.

    He is a leader, unreal in the air, strong, goalscoring threat from set pieces. Most importantly likes to defend. Completely different to anything we have. 34 Caps for ireland too and has been a solid EPL player for 3 years now.

    Hes not as bad on the ball as they would make out either. Can ping a pass but you dont want him dribbling.

    Ok nice. Sounds to me like a Irish Bobo Balde, which is no bad thing.

    No question pace is a great asset, but in the right areas of the park.

    We need a player like him. Someone who is just a defender first and foremost. Nae bullshit.

    Every team needs that.

    There's a reason other EPL clubs are chasing him. He's no Virgil Van Dijk but he does the simple things a CB should do and he does them well.

    One thing is for sure, we won't be getting dominated in the air by teams in the League any more. He'd go through his granny to win a 50/50 ball in the air. Exactly what we need.

    He'll be alright to play the remaining European qualifiers? Could be an asset in getting over the line into the CL when it's time to just dig in.
