Obsessed With Looking for Eric
'When you look at Holding you don't see any decent quality you can work with. I won't call his signing a disaster. He was signed for peanuts, so we can make a decent profit off of him.
But as a team serious about challenging, he should be nowhere near the starting XI. Can't believe people compare him to Mustafi. Mustafi is a competent defender that is capable of moments of madness. But holding is just shïte. He has no positive standout attribute that you see and be like "Yeah, I can work with this".
He's 24 ffs and we still make excuses for him.
I agree. Despite how poor they are our defenders do have some really good qualities. Mustafi is very good in the air, Luiz is excellent on the ball and Sokratis is physically tough.Holding like you say don`t have any stand out qualities really.
