I don't know enough about soccer to know whether Soyancu is good, but I don't like the dude much. I remember a game a couple of years ago where Leicester gave up 4 second half goals to an inferior team, and he got a stupid red card in the middle of it. I have no use for players who continue to "distinguish" themselves in that way, over and over.

i often wish there were a stat in soccer kind of like a +/- in hockey that showed how many times a player contributed in the buildup of the goal (not simply an assist, but a substantial or quality move that led to the assist further back in the play) as well how many times they screwed up that led to a goal being scored against them...if there were one, Soyancu would be a major minus player. my dad is a big Leicester fan and we swear regularly about his crappy positioning and judgement...he sucks, imo
