Nordi

Genuinely think in my time watching SAFC (only since 1997) the best 3 centre halves I've seen are Mukiele, Alderete and Ballard. Before that it was probably Bould, Evans or half a season from Koné or Kaboul, so longevity isn't even a factor.

Yeah no doubt
 
Yep.

Him & Le Fee both missed out.

Ridiculous how strong their options are.
Yep, the fact they don't even make a long list squad must mean France are absolutely amazing. Or their head coach is a complete buffoon

Kone was massively overrated and made to look good by Kaboul. We should have taken the money from Everton

We should have taken the money aye, but I can't agree. Kaboul himself looked like a donkey until Koné signed.
 
Love him, me.

His "strops" when anyone around them perhaps isn't pulling their weight, or making too many errors...

When it looks like he's injured, only to go on a lung busting run down the wing moments later...

Celebrating a big 50/50 he obviously comes out on top of...

My mates son was mascot earlier in the season, was "assigned" Nordi, and he was amazing with him by all accounts. Helped calm his nerves and made sure he was enjoying it every step of the way.

What a signing
 
I think it's just a given that he's absolutely fuckin' class.

People go on about Xhaka's absence, but Nordi was a big miss in that sticky patch where we lost to Fulham and Brighton.
Je certainly was. From what I can see during games, he is an all-in player who sets and insists upon the highest of standards and is always in players faces when they arent on it. He even had a ding dong with Xhaka on Sunda.
 
The simple fact that France took Malo Gusto (😂😂) at the WC instead of Nordi is a clear sign that he went under the radar.
That's great, as he'll stay at least another season to achieve great things with Xhaka and co. 😎
If Malo Gusto played for Burnley or Wolves there’s no chance they’d have picked him to go to the WC. He was shite last weekend… but to be fair every Chelsea player was, except Palmer
 
He refused to lose on Sunday. He was basically telling the Chelsea players “sorry we have to win this game”.
They couldn’t deal with him at all.

I’ve said Le Fee is my favourite player but Nordi might be second. He is absolutely incredible.

I wonder if Mukiele was on the clubs radar before Xhaka rang him.

He loves belting out "baby i'm ready to go"
 
17 goals in 87. That's one in 5 and whilst Enzo is 1 in 7, I just think he offers a lot more.
Completely different players tbf like.

Sess was far more direct where Enzo is more of a playmaker I’d say.

I wouldn’t disagree Enzo is a better footballer but sess was far better dribbler etc and like I say played in a far worse team
