Collins and Mee

Post by jedi_master » Sat Feb 19, 2022 4:53 pm

Absolutely faultless.

Its easy to say we weren’t troubled much - they made it so. They blocked everything, were imperious in the air and their distribution was generally very good too.

Tarky has been outstanding for us, but Collins will fill those sizeable shoes very well. What a signing.

That is a decent premier league pairing and if relegated will be the strongest pairing in the league

Collins plays like he’s been in the game for a decade. He’s got a long future at this level and international ahead of him, that’s for sure.

I assume if Tarks is available he'll return, but Collins hasn't let us down when called upon has he, so a tough call for SD.

A nice problem to have though.

Collins is unbelievable for his age. What a player we have on our hands.

I said on the match thread it's tough on tarks but if he's not staying we should stick with Collins great player for his age

Tarks HAS been great and no mistake, but I’m still in the “bench him” camp.

Collins is the future for us, Tarks is gone and that’s fair enough, he’s been decent for us but we know what we know and we should be reacting to it more favourably to the players who have signed and want to be part of this.

We need Mee to sign a new contract and a left sided Collins ready to fill Mee’s boots.

Collins will have a great future ahead of him and he couldn’t have a better central defender to learn from than Captain Marvel.

People saying bench Tarky for being out of contract but Ben Mee will be as well.

I would have no problem with any partnership, but it has to be our best one, while we have a chance.

Got to say Collins has played better than both his partners this season, very unlucky not to be ever present

Imagine Collins tarky mee in a back 3. That said you can't fault what we have done in recent matches

It’s very easy to see why Collins is topping the players ratings this season.

The scores he receives whenever he plays are quite something. Fully deserved of course.

Collins could be one of the most consequential signings we’ve made. He’s 20 years old.

I predict Collins will be our record sale when he eventually departs. I hasten to add I hope that’s not for many years!

It would be nice to see how Collins fares vs Harry Kane on Wednesday. He can’t do much worse than Tarky in the past.

Played awesome again , but Tarks has been immense in the last few games and I'd definitely put him back in against Kane .

Have been saying for a few weeks now id like to see Collins in the side as well as Tarky but it may need a change of system to be able to do that.

Got to find a way to get Collins in the team. If not a back three, then maybe move Mee to left back?

Mee is a Premier League centre back but was pretty much Championship standard as a left back. Also we have two two left backs who are better in that position.
