Actually there's nothing he can do that Lee couldn't. I've seen Lee play players in 1 v 1 and every time they didn't finish the chances.

I'm not knocking Ekotto, he's definately improving, but Lee was the best LB we've had for many years and was treated very badly by Ramos.
Thats a very fair comment, Lee & Salty were IMO our best LB & RB pairing for some years.

Lee was fucking brilliant. Criminally underrated by many, based only on one horror show against Man United and being unable to cross with his left foot.

Hold on, Kendall, you're forgetting that he once gotmuscled by Lua Lua. That was totally disgraceful!

I'm still trying to decide on the dumbest Lee criticisms I've seen on here. I think I've narrowed it down to: 'he's weak, can't pass and can't tackle' and 'he's shit because he never does sliding tackles'.
