Why this guy? Excellent questions!
Physical stats? 9, 13, 9, 18, 19, 13, 16, 19. So yes, not a fast guy, but huge reach and strength.
Mental? 16, 9, 16, 19, 8, 12, 11, 13, 13, 11, 11, 9, 14, 16 – So he’s got a lot to offer there as well. Again, he knows the game.
Technical – 7, 10, 4, 14, 14, 6, 17, 14, 20, 15, 10, 11, 14, 9. Generally, I’m not a fan of a DC with such a low passing (10). I don’t like them getting intercepted by pacey STs that then get on goal. But the guy has a huge heading/jumping, and the strength to keep folks away. He has enough tackling and marking to be dangerous, and if he had better positioning and concentration, he’d be my starter. That’s his issue - slower, not great positioning, and weak passing. That’s why he can’t be a starter for a year. But he can be for a few games to spell for injury or something.
The Island welcomes you!
