By the way watch his input into the winner yesterday, won the first header and charged across the box to win the 2nd

To me it seems he was an easy target when we were doing poorly as a new player, when there are a few longer serving ones who aren’t performing at all.
Best defender? Even with as piss poor as our defence has been this season, he is still some way down the pecking order. The only one you could make an argument for worse than him is Joe Bennett. Flint has been absolutely atrocious most of the season and winning a couple of headers in the opposition box when he's 6ft 5 doesn't change that! I think you're stretching it giving him credit for that assist late on as well, he's thrown everything at it and launched the ball ten yards in the air. Good effort to get there but it wasn't exactly a masterful knock down.
