AgreedStill the best defender at the club
Fadz is the sort of player who will run through a fire to stop you conceding whilst still controlling the back 4... Hyam imo, looks up to fadzHyam for me is the modern day Trevor Peake , solid , consistent and rarely makes mistakes but never gets the headlines
Yes agreed. Prior experience has proven invaluable
Hyam a close second

Hyams passing from the back, general comfort on the ball has improved no end year on year.Also love his little forrays it space beyond the halfway line (something Mcfadz doesn't do).
Hyam is getting better and better.
Can see alot of this young team..having big futures in the championship level.
Yes and no. Entirely depends on who we're playing and how we're playing. If its against Cardiff, for example, big strikers with long balls, yes, hes the best we have amd will head the ball away all day. If its against a Blackburn or such with 3 or 4 pacey players running at the defence, then no, he's a penalty/red card waiting to happen. Also, when we are playing it around at the back, both Hyam and Rose look more comfortable/confident than he does, they can both ping 40 yard diagonals to the wing backs with their eyes closed whereas Fadz is hi and miss. One game he'll pick 40yard pass after pass, next week he couldn't hit a barn door.Still the best defender at the club

Is his experience and leadership essential in the squad? Yes, absolutely.
Is he the best CH in the squad? No, not all round defender no.

Hyam is head and shoulders our best centre back, and has been for the last 2-3 seasons.
He is a Rolls Royce.

Kelly is excellent and let’s remember our rise to form after a bit of a slow start last season coincided with the return to the first team by Kelly.

Was one phase the ball was played in behind and the ref give mcfadz a free kick but he got lucky with it and looked to be in real trouble apart from that he was excellentFadz was immense yesterday because Cardiff were a team playing to his strengths. They were a big team looking to challenge aerially. A team with movement and pace and he'll be run ragged.
We haven't really got any CB's that are overly equipped with dealing with pace but if we're playing against it I'd prefer Hyam/Osti/Rose in terms of attributes (although I admit we'd miss Fadz's experience, leadership and organising).
Against a bigger more direct forward he's unquestionably in ahead of Rose.

I think we miss a lot when he’s not there. I’d love to see a 21 year old version without the mistakes. Always think we look more solid with that sort of CB in the team.
