Verts was the one defender we have who can reliably bring the ball out of a heavy press . Expect more faffing in our defensive third .
hmm...do they sneak in an extra month between November and December in England?
I wouldn't say overplayed, the amount of minutes he's racked up over the years is just standard fare especially for a CB.
With the way our defense is playing right now we could really use the back 3 against some of these more prolific offenses. Need Jan back soon!Meanwhile, Belgium defender Vertonghen has returned to light training as he aims to recover from a hamstring problem suffered in the 2-0 win at Huddersfield earlier this month. The centre-half is expected to be fit again at the beginning of December.

What's the source for this? I've seen it in a few places but none have quoted a source.Contract extended for another year until 2020. Makes sense, since we have a lot of work to do in other departments in the coming 2 windows. He's also been phenomenal in the past couple years, so I'm glad he'll be with us a little while longer.
Him and Toby are an unbelievable duo. I feel like we have a shot against any team in the world with those two back there.
I don't remember a single game where both Toby & Jan played and we were ruined.They are brilliant but I just posted elsewhere that as a two + Davies we will get ruined by serious pace at Wembley plus we cant push right up to the half way line either!

Care to give an example?You obviously dont remember how poor and exposed we were pre Sanchez at Wembley v pace

I had a dream that I was sat next to Diego Maradona when he was off his tits, and he was touching me inappropriately...I had a dream once that Jan and Toby got ruined.
Woke up laughing at how implausible my dreams were becoming.
