Fab Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 So this guy technically won the Premier League with Leicester and achieved Championship promotion with Middlesborough. In the same season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a fair bit of pace to get us up the pitch quickly but also has the awareness and positioning defensively. Solid is literally the best word for him. if I could like him to any fairly recent right back it would be Luke Young, who I thought was fantastic for us. A 7/10 player every game 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momo Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 So why didn't Boro keep him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I'm going to guess he is more defence minded as he used to play centre back. Wheres the beard though? Too clean cut for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Solid. Him and Bacuna are decent options for RB. Could this spell the end of Hutton? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Fantastic signing, very happy with this, said it before but I'm so glad to have a team I feel pride in cheering on! Signings like this go a long way to restoring that sense of pride, confidence and togetherness that has been lacking for so so long. Chuffed with this, a solid signing. Out of nowhere too. Hope he enjoys it here. Welcome to the Villa RDL and good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobzy Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 He's a versatile defender too, isn't he? Could play left-back or right-back. Solid signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
