Eric Bailly's potential

Loved the bit near the end when tony v was knackered and he outpaced him took the ball and was like "£#%&! this" and went on rb duties

There was 2 long balls played out by hull in the second half that last season I think we might have been put under pressure but both times big Eric came in and cleaned the ball the £#%&! out of there with a big "£#%&! that shit" type of clearance. No nonsense is his first, middle & last name

I'm enjoying this season

Proper £#%&!ing Centre half.

This guy looks absolutely brilliant, as in, a shoe in for "world class" as he matures.

Love big Eric, nqat.

Not sure it's potential anymore, walked straight into this league and bossed it since minute one. Proper saging from Jose.

I can imagine his inner voice whenever the opposition feed the ball into their striker "Ball Ball Ball get the Ball , give me the ball, I want the ball" Do feel we're well overdue him crunching an opponent to Wes brown levels.

cant wait to see him snap Coutinho, smash Giroud and bully Costa into getting himself sent off. hopefully he'll do a number on Aguero too the magnificent blue @#%&!.

He looks amazing. Just shows there are some gems still out there

Can't think of another "proper" centreback who was/is so class on the ball too. He's got the lot.

lets not get too giddy lads, dont want Jose logging on here, reading this thread and labelling him the new Duncan Edwards

Yeah he's a little rough around the edges with some of his play but I can't think of anything he doesn't do to a high standard as a defender

What a signing

People were slagging off his distribution when we bought him but it's been of a high standard so far.

His actual defending has been brilliant. Lean, fast, aggressive... even Lee Dixon was jokingly referring to him as the 'buy of the century' earlier .

The lads a beast and he's going to be great for us........but I fear there's an error and humbling experience on the horizon for him.

I'm going to put myself out there like Siders.

Jose saying he is not sure of Eric's potential and we shall have to see

He knew full well the piss taking 3 year overdue superb £#%&!er

Corrected

Potential? Stam/Vidic/Rio/Maldini (in their prime) level for me. Total beast of a player. What a series of signings we've made this last summer. Probably even better than:

Jesper lives quite close to me in Melbourne, true story nobody cares.

He's been brilliant but the other centre half is head and shoulders above any centre half in world football. Makes the game look so £#%&!ing easy. Could walk into the Milan 4 with baresi and would look comfortable. Daley blind as good as any footballing centre half I've seen.
