mensah in his last season with us was still miles out infront as our best defender. the OPTA stats showed he had the most interceptions, most successful clearances, highest tackle completion rate.
for some reason his name is now mud because he was set the task of dealing with fletcher and got utterly no help from the other 10 players on the field or the referee, even tho fletcher was being a right dirty shit.
his injuries were his only problem, he performances were not.
ACtually, I personally never got the Mensah love in. Granted, I only watched on tv mostly, being over here, but he always seemed to be on the verge of rugby tackling. It was scary to watch. Always on the edge of giving away a free kick or penalty...liverpool for instance :-(
