He is an excellent tackler, meaning he has the skills to rip the ball from the possession of the players. He deflects passes- which is just a smooth way of saying, “He just came between the ball and the intended target when the opposition tried passing it amongst themselves.” Last time, he sure was a tackling machine against Brentford, and once again repeated the tackles from which Brentford almost scored. The guy was almost like a superhero who rescued Brentford every time!
