Absolutely superb today. Very impressed from what I’ve seen of him so far.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 4:58 pm**

Can't believe this lad's only 20.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 4:59 pm**

Could the Skipper struggle to get back in? Great to see Collins has settled in nicely.

Exactly what I was thinking. Looked every bit as good as Mee and showed a few really skilful touches in addition

Superb today. Nearly faultless.

To compare him to our more recent CB's, definitely plays more like Keane than Mee/Tarks. Ridiculously composed for a player his age, and against such an opponent, too. 2-0 doesn't look amazing on paper but both City goals were about loose/second balls being pounced upon by world class, sharper players than ours, not necessarily big mistakes.

Looks confident and assured

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:07 pm**

Magnificent signing

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:08 pm**

Looks excellent , will be a good replacement if Tarky goes,though he’s clearly better than Ben Mee in almost every aspect . Reminds me of Michael Keane

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:10 pm**

Collins and Maxwell real positives in a disappointing start to the season. He has definitely settled in very nicely.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:14 pm**

Is this Bambi on ice we're tlaking about? Haha

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:18 pm**

Maybe we should try and sign soutar the other one from Stoke too as tarks seems to be on his way.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:20 pm**

Maybe we should try to sign someone who can put tge bloody ball in the back of tge net

I believe he has a north east connection.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:34 pm**

He also drove out of defence with the ball a couple of times, impressed.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 5:59 pm**

He looks very good and I hope he gets a run of games.

The only issue I see is I don't think Tarky is as good on the left CB slot.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 6:03 pm**

Its a shame it will be him and Mee, rather than him Tarkowski in the future.
We've wanted a good ball playing centre half for a while to replace Mee, who whilst impressive defensively is slow and a liability at times.
Sadly Gibson wasn't that man, although I thought he was perfect at the time.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 6:08 pm**

Played well today , could we play 3-5-2 in certain games ?

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 6:22 pm**

Made a great start and looks a very good signing. My dad said he reminds him of Gary Cahill.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 6:24 pm**

He is better than Keane by a distance.

He is better than Stones at his age....and now perhaps.

Excellent signing. He will be an Irish international for many years.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 6:28 pm**

Genuinely hope he starts next week , though i guess will be the Spurs game his next outing .Mee’s a wonderful servant but his lack of pace , his errors and poor distribution surely mean it’s time to give youth a chance . Once Roberts is also bedded in the side starts to get a more youthful energetic look. Collins can clearly play and move with the ball too.

Acid test today , now don't think he would have ever have had so much work to do as today .

Bet he will sleep will tonight

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 7:35 pm**

He reminds me of Steve Davis in the way he plays and his ability on the ball

If he can chip in with a few goals like Steve Davis used to then that would be an added bonus.

Exactly what I said to someone earlier in the week.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 7:51 pm**

Didn't get to see the game today but I'm so pleased to read these reviews of his performance today.

I have to say I wasn't convinced by his performance against Norwich - I thought he looked quite poor on the ball actually and was beaten a few times in the second half - but hopefully we can now put that down to nerves starting his first match. Sounds like he's got a really bright future.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 8:47 pm**

Hell will freeze over before Dyche drops Ben Mee.

Really? I’d say he is about 7 steps ahead of Steve Davis

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 8:57 pm**

Liked the way he actually played rather than hoofing. Quite often stepping by players.
The Hoof being as a last emergency resort.

I never said Davis was better. I said that he reminded me of him. He is and will be undoubtedly better than Davis as he operates at a higher level, but his style of play is similar. McNeil reminds me of Glen Little at times too.

Posted: **Sat Oct 16, 2021 10:41 pm**

Looked pretty awesome today.. at 20 years old.

Sat with City fans today, all picked him out as our standout player.

Posted: **Sun Oct 17, 2021 12:15 am**

Doh!
You get the drift though 3 at back
2 wide
A Holding MF

. . the other best 4 playing in places that can actually cause the opposition a problem and also fall in when often required.
So we can actually play football.

.........

All else fails.
We sneak two extra players on if we get a corner.

The guys has literally played 180 mins at this level. He was decent today but poor against Norwich. We will soon see what level Dyche sees him, if he drops him for Mee then we know he is not quite at Mees level yet.

He was voted man of the match against Norwich.

You are utterly clueless.

Or maybe that Ben Mee is club captain, so very difficult to drop him?

Nope you are just wearing claret tinted glasses

The whole team were poor against Norwich. Just because he got man of match doesn’t mean he was good. It meant he was the least worst.

I think he’s going to be good. I still think his best performance was against Newcastle

Posted: **Sun Oct 17, 2021 8:31 am**

You are the only one who thought he was poor against Norwich.

I've worked it out now though. You are actually ablueclaret posting under a different name.

The Stoke fans were right, Collins is going all the way to the top.
