Jan Vertonghen

All players make mistakes and Jan is no different then others. It just the real good players make fewer then others and Jan ( imo) is in that bunch.

I'm sure having proper support from the midfield has helped all our defence, neither Mason or Bentaleb offered the level of cover we now have.
 
Big New Years Eve party at Vertonghen's then.
I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. It did look suspicious, but its possible to lose your calm. I'm sure it's happened to all of us playing football. I also thought it was a very harsh yellow card as he didn't actually do anything. I didn't know that running in an aggressive manner was a bookable offence.
 
I think he's been excellent this season.
I think so too. He lost out to van Dijk for the goal today, but it was difficult for Vertonghen. Van Dijk was coming in at speed whilst Vertongen was standing still, and Van Dijk also put his arm on Vertonghen's shoulder holding him down..

Should have had one earlier when he put his hand across Rodriguez's (?) face.

Was Van Dijk supposed to be Vertonghen's player?.... I don't think he was the one picking him up for Southampton's other set pieces.
