Any performance is built on the defensive basics, and he did those expertly, winning the headers he had to win and clearing the balls he had to clear.

But it was his play in possession that enabled Rovers to stretch the field in the first half. He was the' most comfortable defender on the ball in E10 and his willingness to receive it and play around the press sent the Gas on several attacks and took the sting out of an opposition tasked with getting after Rovers. All the more impressive when considering he is playing at left centre-back when he is right-footed.

Despite that, he is advancing the play on both feet and consequently is having a big impact on the game at both ends of the pitch.


Sounds good
