    I liked him. Not scared to get forward at all

    I don’t think many people will mess with him

    Like the sound of him. 

    Hoping he's seen more as the LCB (and think he will be ahead of Bell sooner than later personally) than the LB/LWB, although looking on the ever reliable transfer rumours he did play more games at LB than CB, interestingly, only played the one league game at LWB last season.

    The important thing though, played 90+ minutes in all but 4 league games.
    Why would you assume he’d be ahead of Bell when you’ve never seen him play ? 
    Because Bell has a very poor fitness record. I think Koumetio is probably earmarked for the LCB role over Mesik but Bell has shown we can't rely on his availability, sadly.
    Look at who played more games in the last 2 seasons.  Bell is quality - I’d like to know what our record last season was when Ramsay, Jones and Bell started.  Unless one of the first two is sold , I suspect they will be our first choice back 3

    I liked him a lot he played a few balls through the lines and looked to get forward a few times but his runs weren’t seen. If we play him and Collins our midfield better get used to receiving the ball as they both seem keen to thread passes

    I was going to say he looks lighter on his feet than I expected for someone with his frame.

    But guess it figures considering he has played left back.

    Kinda hoping we have found our own Tristan Crama…. Big strong frame but can get up and down as well

    Coming to this rather late, and showing my age a bit, but I'm surprised no-one's pointed out the similarity to a young Jimmy Hill.

    Too early to judge his ability but I like his attitude - confidence and desire to play on the front foot will serve him and us well.

    Interesting article, even more interesting that the BBC think we play in blue.

    Did like that at the Dartford game he won a tackle and the Dartford player was rolling around and Ivan looked down and just shouted at him to get up which he did !
