He's dropped far more bollocks than Curtis, he's a squad player with no pace, he gets too close to his man and grabs when they spin him (see Fulham away last season), he may improve his defensive skills but he'll never have pace. If the 7 mill from boro was genuine I'd have snapped their hands off.
I'd like to see Harry, Curtis & Daws in a race, not much between them. Paired with a decent paced CB helps (this is were Livermore had helped compliment Davies). I still worry about a Davies & Dawson pairing for pace in this league.
Pace isn't something most defenders are blessed with, Dawson certainly doesn't have any. What Harry is good at, much like Daws and Chester, is having the ball at his feet and playing out from the back. Plus if their positioning is good they don't need pace.
Keane incoming... Hull City @HullCity They say good things always come in threes... #ThreeisaMagicNumber
Still... I'd have thought 5-6m would get an injury prone 5th choice midfielder. Speaking of which, rumour is you're after Matty James on loan.
Yes he's rough with players but I think he's going to improve. Daws is only going one way unfortunately, he showed that in the play off final when Davies dug him out of a huge hole. If H gets a run, then he'll be better than Daws. IMO!
We currently cover for lack of pace at CB by playing deep. Reading of the game is good enough the deeper you sit. You're only exposed when playing s high line.
Myself and Jonathan Ross follow each other on Twitter and we aint mates. In a more serious point myself and work colleagues follow each other on Twitter and are connected on other social media, but we arent mates. Nice read on Mason from the Spuds end: https://thespursreport.wordpress.com/2016/08/30/godspeed-ryan-mason-one-of-our-own/
His positioning isn't usually good, my post quotes Fulham but it should read QPR, he was shocking, dragged out of position constantly and then having to give away free kicks when a clever forward span him - for me, he's back up at best.
I'm not being a cock. You said they were 'mates' and I questioned if you know this? Not everyone who works together are mates. I dont dispute that they know each other.
