Town Watching West Brom Defender
at 10:08:34

Hello, WBA fan here in peace.

I just wanted to say that if you get Ibanez then you won't be able to believe your luck when you see him play. Whenever he's played for us he's been absolute class and hasn't put a foot wrong, looked like a Premiership defender through and through. Apart from Jonas Olsson and our left back Nicky Shorey he was our only defender who looked consistently good and inspired confidence. He's a good all round centre back really - good heading ability, very good tackler, good positionally, good at reading the game, a goal threat from set plays etc,, but his most impressive trait is how calm and composed he is on the pitch, never ever seems to panic.

I'm not the only Albion fan who rates him. If you look on the WBA forum (westbrom.com) you'll see that virtually all of us rate him very highly and we're all completely baffled and somewhat annoyed as to why he's only played for us 10 times in the league and why Hodgson doesn't seem interested in giving him a chance. It's a total mystery. It's rumoured that it's due to him not putting enough effort in during training or because of language problems (although his English has improved a lot since the start of last season), but I doubt you'll be worrying too much about those either of those issues (if the rumours are true).
