Has to be Struijk - Tarik hasn’t played enough for me, same personal view regarding Trafford.

Surprised Struijk wasn’t on the LB list he was a better LB……apparently.

Early days or not, Muharemovich looks like the best player we’ve had in that position in a long time, even though I’m still a big fan of Pascal.

Struijk for me, virtually perfect last season. If he had a touch more pace he'd be world class. Tarik probably wins this when we re-run it but right now it's Struijk

Struijk

Tarik has only played a handful of games, Struijk was immense for years.

Indeed Dave.

Reading the official site yesterday, Tarlk was outstanding for his country Bosnia this week.

Muharemovic levels never seems to drop.

He will be our Player of the Season come May next year.

If that's the case I may as well left Muharemovic & Trafford out of these polls.

I personally don't think Pascal was better as a left-back.

All about different opinions though!

One vote for Paddy.....Kisnorbo a League One defender better than Muharemovic, Struijk & Cooper.

Just think it's a very small sample size.

Same for Trafford.

They will have bad games, every player does.

They've done well so far, they may be shocking for the next 3,4 then these polls are very different

Every player may struggle in our next game.

Trafford & Muharemovic up for a busy afternoon.

It's an opinion, a fair one I think. Some will judge for what they've done elsewhere or another time. I voted Trafford as we spent 40M and tbh I've never been that impressed with any other keeper in the last 20 years. We didn't get the best of Schmeichel imo, he was much better once he left

Muha has real competition in Struijk who was top class for us and he did it for longer. ATM that gives Struijk the edge.

Hard to argue with that.
