What do you make of Mori? I think he gets a lot of undeserved stick but has shown an improvement since he has been getting a regular start. Is he a "face doesn't fit" player? I like Mori, but he is also learning. His adventurous pay from the back is a disaster waiting to happen, but he does have good feet (as showed with his chance on Saturday that Hennessy brilliantly saved) and probably thinks he's better than he is. Don't mind him marauding forward if Barry just drops back to cover him (as he did), and if Holgate is there to cover with the pace that Williams hasn't got; but will Holgate always be playing, will Barry? I'd like to see Mori and Williams consolidate their pairing at the back (with or without Holgate) and with a run of games, I suspect he won't feel the need to try too hard, and so relax more in to the key parts of his role. I don't know if this marauding tendency is a recent thing, whether he does it for Argentina (people forget he's one of the current Argentina back 4), and whether he did it for his last Club. He's a goal threat too, surprised he hasn't scored yet this season! Jags is past it in my opinion, and Mori has to get a run of games. I don't think any of our defenders, Williams included, are amazing, especially when you consider we had the likes of Distin before them, who at his best was very good. It would be good to get another before the window shuts.
