Hyam is a very solid defender at this level. Doyle may well turn out to be better but it’s far too early to say.
Statistics don’t lie, Hyam was not a bad passer of the ball at all. If he was so bang average he wouldn’t have been sold for a fee. He’s not a world beater and the championship is most likely his level but your comments about him are pretty clueless to be honest.
3 clean sheets on the bounce, you can hardly say we've got a weakened defence since Dom was sold.
We are desperately short of cover, but unquestionably stronger at the back now.
