A legend in the making the way I see it. Not only because he's saying all the right things (and saying them well) but also because he's showing it on the pitch. Rafa has been the perfect man to coach and improve Lascelles as a player, and I just hope we can hang onto him for many years to come. If no ambition is shown I fear he will be off.

Way better than Jones and Smalling.

He's in the top 3 English centre halves in the Premier League.If anyone wants to make a fool of themselves and name more better.I will sit and wait years.

At the moment I would agree with you...but if he continues his improvement as of the last 2 seasons...
Oh...one of the players that Rafa hasn't improved according to you!
He's massively important to our defence and team. Need to keep him no matter what offers come in.

Agreed, his absence showed how important he is to us.
Going to be a real top player one day, just hope it is with us.

i think unless he moves on and plays with better players he will hit a glass ceiling
however if he does move on to bea bench warmer and play with better players i cant see him improving to be a top centre half
i think here he will stagnate
he is good
not brilliant
not world class
maybe break into an england squad occasionally
but far far far from a finished article
good communicator
doesnt carry the ball out all that well
does go walk abouts at times
decent in the air
our best player for sure
but as i say he woud bea decent 20 mill back up signing for one of the big boys

Linked with Liverpool I see. That's one of the few places I could actually see him going.

I doubt if you'll get a response to that Geordie.
