I actually think Wimmer is a better defender but Verts is the superior football player as he has more pace, his technical skills are quite stunning for a CB (especially in the PL where most central defenders are so complete and utter shite ) and range of passing/shooting is a lot bigger
But we might be calmer at the back with Wimmer, even if i would chose to play Vertonghen over Wimmer any day. And it worries me a bit that Wimmer wasnt even first choice for Austria
Agree with that, but the fact that Toby and Kev had an extended run together, and did very well, softens the blow somewhat. I'd be more worried if they'd hardly played together.
