Matip has been the best in the Prem for me, as Virgil said himself not that long ago, a lot of teams attack Matip's and Trent's side more, he was laughing about it as I recall talking about not always having that much to do and as long as we kept the clean sheet and won it was cool
It's not that Virgil isn't our best defender, he obviously is, he's the best CB on the planet right now, Matip's been the best CB in the league because he's had a lot more defending to do and done it brilliantly, except for his 2 flash a leg at a shot instead of standing up and making an angle for Big Bear moments v City, he needs that correcting, as he's done it twice this season, I don't know why them, that's the annoying part about it, them of all teams, as all the other times he's been in that situation this season, he's done what I expect and defended how we defend
