No he started 10 games, with 3 clean sheets and 12 conceded. I think the games you mention suited him because we defended a bit deeper to limit space in behind and he did well generally. He was less good in games against Watford and Brighton when there was more onus on us to push up the pitch. I have no idea how good Mina can be for us but I find the insistence by some people that he's absolutely amazing and we looked better with him playing last year to be weird. He was - at best - decent last year. He can be given plenty of leeway because he's quite young, new to the league and had injuries, but there was definitely plenty to be a little bit concerned about in his games last year.

I was referring to premier games. I missed off the Watford and Brighton games when I was collating my stats but I was sort of going from memory. That'll teach me.

That doesn't change my point though. Given that he was new to the league and didn't play enough games to get properly upto speed, he was impressive last season IMO. I never said he was absolutely amazing and I haven't seen anybody else say the same thing on here either. I did say I think he COULD become a star for us in the future and I 100% stand by that. And I also think his character COULD also make him a fan favourite.

I guess the difference between you and I is that I look at the positives in a player, and think how good he could be once he gets fit and settles in. And you look at the negatives, give him the benefit of the doubt because there were mitigating circumstances, but the jury is till out.

Also you need to look at the linked article I was responding too, which basically said he's failed and United dodged a bullet, which is utter nonsense. I trust we agree on that.

So basically you made up some stats and now you're in a mood because I called you out on it? Got it.

Anyway, I wonder if we'll sign Big Kurt. Who knows?
 
If Nathan Ake is priced at 75 mil then I don't want to know what a transfer-banned Chelsea would want for Zouma Just don't think this one will come through, between Chelsea's predicament and the prices for PL experienced CB's. Maybe Marcel will surprise me (again) but I am preparing myself for Mina-Keane-Holgate until January.

Think that's Bournemouth giving a Leicester a separate price because they know how much money they have which is fair enough.

Beat me too it! Ah well as said if he doesn’t want to push for the move and he ends up being benched that’s his own fault.

If he doesn’t want to come here and be loved/adored by the fans that’s ok. Pretty sure Brands and Silva will find alternative. If somehow he drops to the bench once the German cb is fit then maybe he will reconsider his position. By then, we already have a new CB settling in and won’t be signing him.

I hope Kurt will push for a move to Everton. This is his best career move. Keane, Zouma and Mina that’s our CBs.
