Would like to see him in action in a quick-passing, high press set up.
His movement and on-the-shoulder style would lead to loads of one-on-ones for him.
Maya is a proven premier league CB, and still has a long career ahead of him.
He is easily worth £15m.
Yes, the market is ****ing stupid now. Massively overinflated and i hate that. Yet in this market Maya is £15m worth of CB.
Hugely talented player. Could become sensational.
Don't think we can accuse him of being lightweight: he chases back and puts a foot in.
He does need to learn to sometimes just do the simple stuff........And a run of games would help.
Gameplan from us was obvious and probably the sensible one: do what we did to Liverpool a bunch of times this season.
But with Romeu and VVD missing it was going to be tough: but what would be an alternative?
Lack of pacy options on the break didn't help: if we had an alternative to JWP out wide to compliment Redmond (or even if Long had started instead of Barry) we might have seen a different outcome.
No disgrace losing to such a highly expensive Man City team though. Particularly with our absentees.
