Didn’t see or hear anything about the game but pound for pound he’s the best signing we’ve made in the Robins era
A bold assertion but he’s definitely up there I’d say.

Plays more like an out & out hairy arsed centre-half now, has cut out the running with the ball, will do this season easy, won every header today and that hooked clearance near the end was outstanding.

Did a similar hooked clearance against Sheffield United iirc - playing out of his skin.

Gotta admit I was losing a bit of faith in him before when we were leaking goals, and he was hoofing it up to nobody. But he seems even sturdier than before.

These last 5 or 6 games, he gas been immense and hardly put a foot wrong. If he got injured, I'd be massively concerned with how we'd replace as with the form he's in, he's arguably the player we'd least want to be injured/suspended at the moment. He's got a big shift to put in over the next 4 weeks

Forget COH, Gyok, Hamer etc, Fadz has been our most important player for several seasons now.

On the playing side, yeah.

Financially, Hyam and McCallum must contend.

Cost nowt, then sold for decent fees.

Yep-this. It was a great signing at the correct time when we needed a bit of no nonsense know how and a leader. Still doing them things now albeit at a higher level. Long may that continue.

Agreed except with the 'no nonsense' label.
He can do all the ugly stuff certainly but he's a lot better on the ball than he gets credit for. It's only since the change in style that he's been less progressive shall we say. In League 1 & first Championship season he was a very good ball playing CB.

Yep-can certainly do both! Must admit that yesterday I was a bit worried by the defense up against Dwight Gayle but he hardly made an impression and was subbed early doors second half. A testament to how good our defense played as a whole.

I think he's a good shout for PM. More mobile than Boris and more experienced than Sunak...

An honest professional, great at organising those he leads and doesn’t quit when the going gets tough. He would get my vote

Had a few bad games, happens.
We've made changes at the back, it takes time to gel. We look very solid and he's the foundation of it

Surely he deserves a song, this is probably shit but hopefully it kickstarts some good ideas:
(To the tune of the Man City Ruben Diaz song)
Kyle McFadzean our number 5,
He wins everything in the air,
He’s hard as nails,
He’s a fucking beast,
He hates the Villa and loves City.

He has a song? Do you attend games?

I'd like them to bring in the European thing of repeating the goalscorer's surname just for

'Viktor!'
'Geeyurkeres!'
'Viktor!'
'Jockeresh'
'Viktor!'
'Jeeohkurez!'

I liked his post-match interview where he basically said "I don't want to say me not being there made a difference...but I was watching from the sidelines and goals were coming from where I'd normally be"
