Didn't look a the whole thing but seems to come out ahead of everyone in defensive duels except for Tapsoba, Im sure I read somewhere his pressures are very good, and I generally have trust issues with passing stats from a centreback. All in all theres not a massive difference between him and Tabsopa but one is in the premiership and one is the bundesliga so Im not sure how comparable the stats are. Obviously the aerial ability statistics are somewhat of a worry, but I think Gabriel and himself can build a fairly strong partnership.
Inferior to Saliba and Gabriel in all of these aspects - stats wise. Obviously Saliba was playing in France not PL so difficult to compare. I think the clearest thing the stats showed was he isnt better than what we currently have at passing out - he does it at Brighton far less than the other two and his accuracy is considerable lower also.
Im optimistic enough anyway if we bring him in that he can improve the team, we definitely need more defenders who go and actually tackle without making mistakes.
