At the end of last season and start of this , you could just see people waiting to write him off but he's been exceptional this season.

 

I'd say behind Xabi he's been our second best player and almost faultless. Despite not really having a settled partner for most of the season he's consistantly delivered world class defensive displays , with Chelsea away in particular standing out.

It may be a bold claim but I think he's now the top defender in the league.

He was brilliant yesterday and made a mockery of the ridiculous myth that he lacks technical ability.

 

I'd have him at RB all the time, especially when MS comes back. He's solid defensively and uses the ball a lot more intelligently than the vastly overrated Arbeloa.

Carra is class and a legend, but to say almost faultless this season is a bit much, 2 unbelievbly stupid own goals v Hull and Spurs in particular when we were coasting has cost us points and he was'nt exactly faultless for Arsenals goal last week either, but he is a top player and I certinley would'nt be writing him off.

How was the own goal against Spurs stupid exactly?

 

It bounced off the side of his head. I doubt he'll ever score one like it again if he tried for a 100 years.

 

Problem Jamie has is the wools resent everything he represents.

 

Oh can this twat just be banned? He's always on the wind up.

Gardner made a mug of him a couple of times in the first Bolton game too. He's had a bit of a rough patch. He'll not let it affect him though.

Been at his best when played at right-back. Odd.

 

For my money, a Hyypia Agger partnership has more going for it, a far nicely blend of strengths(more composure on the ball, aerially more dominant), sadly Hyypia isn't a few years younger. Not having a go at Carra, just how i see it.

 

Hyppia composure on the ball?

 

Hahhaha.

 

See my wools comment earlier.
