Yeah still remember that Pato goal where he literally owned Mexes' *** with his pace. there are negatives in his game, no doubt. but he's a great squad player to have as cover for Nesta. |

Are we looking at this guy as a permanent partner for Silva? Would that mean winding Nesta down a bit?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) That is the exact play I was thinking of. X is right but still if we are going to make a run at the CL we need to have defenders capable of staying in front of pacy players. Thank god for Thiago (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devilsmiley.gif) |

Yep, Mexes means more pace for our CB pair. But I hope he'll remain decent in his behavior. We don't need another troublemaker.

I have seen his highs and lows and when he is on his game he is amazing. He even wore the armband for France not to long ago.
