What is his best position tho?
What's hard to say the more I watch my son play in a youth academy and he and his fellow players progress is that players often get chucked into a position that sometimes isn't their best.
I'm a firm believer that a player can play his entire career in front of us and the TV cameras at a position that might be his second best and we'd have no fucking clue.
Cheers
Well, I think he is born for the right back position.
You know I was not a fan of him, actually, I was a bit annoyed on the fact everyone was saying we need to put him in and so on. I was looking at him and I was clueless, what the fuck is wrong with us. Are we that desperate to have a player from our youth?
It was difficult to understand. I remember his game with Real Madrid and he was ... like Steve Howey in a bad day. Plus the whole saga with his agent.
Anyway, he went to Galata and played as a CB and it was a disaster, really bad. He made a lot of mistakes in front of players that are really bad, then he got injured with Kasimpasa I think.
Then 2016 started and when he came back, they sent him on the right. Fuck me. First 10 minutes, perfect cross for Sabri. Like sniper type of pass. Then speed, then dribbling. First games he looked like Dani Alves at Sevilla. I could not believe my eyes, is this Denayer? Our own Denayer?
After that, his performances did not look as good as in his first games, but he looked really solid. Sagna type of solid. I saw all his games this year.
Then in
april, a defender they had was got injured and they put him back as a CB. Galatasaray reiceived:
3.5 goals per game.But, I will draw a line and speak about something else.

His injury record is really bad.
13 Injuries the whole season., with Rizerspor it was the worse: Thigh Muscle Strain
In total, he had:
2 hip problems
8 Thigh Muscle Strain
1 Calf
2 Unknown10 of those were during a game and he was substituted. And the last game I saw him was versus Rizerspor, second leg, this time the Cup, 0-0 and they qualified for the final. He played 90 minutes as a CB. Galata won away with 3-1 in the first leg where he also got injured.
To make it clear, if we put our hopes in Denayer, then we really are fucked.
