Let's not get carried away. Guehi would probably have ruled himself out of Southgate's plans yesterday and Andersen's lack of pace was also shown up, with a booking as a result.

They also don't provide the consistent attacking threat at set pieces that less technically accomplished players like Dann and Delaney did. Guehi had a clear chance from a corner that he did not make the most of

Andersen's passing can be Bobby Moore quality, of course, which adds a dimension to the team we have rarely had


Indeed.
I suppose to have two technically good CBs who can actually play football rather than hoof the ball as far up-field as they can is something of a novelty for us (although Cahill could play a bit). Andersen and Guehi are the type of players we need if we want the option of playing out from the back and both are decent players. However, I don't see either fetching or worth £50m at this juncture.

I certainly was, the way he guided that header into the path of mount was pure class, especially as everyone else in the ground and on TV thought he was going to head it in the other direction
