Sokratis Papastathopoulos: Mentor to Plato and Holding

[Mitch]

Sokratis is most underrated CB in the league.

 

[Ceballinhos]

He made Harry Kane, one of the best striker in the world, his *****.

It was lovely to see. He's been great so far. It was a bargain.

 

[berric]

When he last-ditch tackled and then went up spreading his arms, rallying the fans and the players I was just - wow. Like a true gladiator. Top signing, personality-wise. Passion is contagious.

 

[Malky]

Has there ever been a Premiership game where Kane has been so ineffective? Other than the penalty he never got sight of goal, Sokratis put that mouthbreather in his pocket and never let him out once.
Commanding performance, underrated CB!

Ahahahaahaha

I really thought this guy would be rubbish, I don't know much about football and judge players based on FIFA I guess.

He's not bad in FIFA with the right chem style.

 

[Tosker]

him and Kola are a real physical presence - something we've missed for years

Chem styles are a myth.

Who would have thought that you won't get overrun by teams when you add a bit of steel in the heart of defence and midfield?

Sokratis is an old-school, no nonsense centre back. I love it. Reminds me a bit of Keown.

Yeah he reminds me of keown aswell, and thats awesome. If he can maintain this level for another 2 years or so it would be fantastic.

I was lambasted for it

Borehamwood away, I am still laughing. 5 years a stud at Dortmund "yeah but Borehamwood away though"

Wish we got him earlier, he would have cost 40-50m when he was 28 though. Hummels is found out now that he doesn't have Sokratis backing him up.

 

[yybecause]

by the time he slows down, he’ll make sure Dinos is fully ready to take over.
Brilliant signing in more then few ways

 

[Manberg]

This guy putting in huge performances, brave heart.

 

[HBL]

He'll get sent off for us at some point but my word is he a good defender, can be over aggressive at times but he is rapid across the ground and his slide tackles are always successful.

 

[Wryer]

Beast!

 

[stiiphunn]

He’s doing really well. Love him so far!

It wasn't unreasonable to question whether a 30 year old, who's not a great athlete to begin with, could adapt physically to the league.

Torreira is rightfully getting the majority of the plaudits but the Greek may be our most important signing of the off-season.
