So that's never, then.Kyle Walker at centre back Could see him playing the position when he's wiser!
More likely Davies, who has played there for Wales recently (and us I think).Kyle Walker at centre back?? Think he did it in a friendly once. Could see him playing the position when he's older and wiser!
No, that isn't his strength at all.I'm wondering if Bentaleb at CB is something worth trying in cup games till Jan comes back.
I think he may be hunched over a bit.He's standing in between Wimmer and Alli, both 6.2, in one of these training pictures:

Looks a good 3 inches shorter than them to me.
People saying Verts would be lucky to come back blablabla.
Please wake up, Wimmer has played two league games for us. He has done well but come on.
Please keep cool. Vertonghen is the boss.
I think it's obvious at his stageNot obviously.
I think Wimmer will still be getting plenty of starts
He is 6ft which is a little bit taller than Cannavaro, about the same height as Thiago Silva and just a little shorter than Godin and will probably grow a bit more too.I'm wondering if Bentaleb at CB is something worth trying in cup games till Jan comes back. I know CCV is highly rated but he doesn't seem tall enough to me. Anyone know what his height is? He looks 5.11 - 6ft to me and you really need to be around 6.2 to be a CB.
Don't forget the year Keano got injured and we only had Doherty up front, happy days.Our defence and the depth of our defence, centre backs, full back and keeper is frankly ridiculous
We used to have Doherty in defence. and inversen up front.
This. Not to take anything away from Wimmer as he's done very well, but there is an obvious drop off between the 2, even though it isn't noticeable statistically. Jan is much more comfortable in possession, has more mobility, and just an overall better defender at this stage. I think Dier's presence has been huge in masking the drop off. Again, you cant take anything away from Wimmer as he's done very well in replacement, but we really do miss Vertonghen, not only for his footballing abilities but for his leadership as well. He's taken very well to the added responsibility of being vice captain. We need him back sooner rather than later. He is clearly first choice LCB. Wimmer is a very good deputy though and we are lucky to have such a good back up.I think it's obvious at his stage
Wimmer has done well and proved himself an excellent back up but he's not been on Vertonghen's level
He makes far too many needless fouls and isn't as mobile
He's very good, he's done very well and we are very lucky to have him as part of our squad but when fit Vertonghen is part of the first choice cb partnership and to me it is obvious
Do you seriously believe Verts in not in our best 11? WTF?He'll be lucky to get his place back the way Wimmer has stepped up.
Be great to have him back again as another option alongside CCV.
