Similar to Hector. Maybe they would do well in a back five with wing backs with Lee's or Pudil covering in the centre.

 

Unfortunately he's not coming back into a stable defence club. The changes are killing us defensively.

 

Maybe all of these systems will finally clock with the players, question is which ones?

I had quite a lot of optimism initially when he first came could pass a ball, looked good striding out of defence, tall, but lost faith in him soon after, seemed to turn like the "Titanic" and got cought out of position a lot. Since then got injured and dissappeared, He's contributed that little since he signed I actually started to call him VanAbdi! lol

Van who??

Imagine that line up in the championship on a regular basis

 

In fact, 2nd thoughts don't

absolute disgrace of a footballer. Needs to be paid up his contract and told to f off and never come back again along with half the current squad. Will probably play for the dutch national team after he’s rinsed us for all he can get and he gives a poo about improving his natural game

If we paid him up do you think we would also have to tell him not to come back again?

His performance at Wigan was as bad as anything I have seen in recent seasons.

Unless he has put on a stone of muscle I just don’t see how he can do a defensive job in this league.

So lightweight 

It's not all about being a muscle man...look at Thornilly...he's not the biggest but his athletism and attitude is first rate...a few could learn from that lad.... especially the big heads.

He is not the tallest but Thornily is much stronger than Van Aken but you are right in that Thornily seems to relish the physical contact whereas it frightens Van Aken to death

Typical Erdevise import. Looking classy on the ball when he gets enough time and space. As soon as he is pressed, he starts panicking. Another one who found pace of The Championship as too much for him.

 

Hope he adapts and fullfils his early promise, though.
