@AaAa-uq4hxI would say he has higher ceiling than Jan. This kid has the potential to be the best in the world. He is truly special, especially his pace which I’ve never seen before in central defender.👍🏽
He comes across as so down to Earth, level headed, and doesn’t get carried away with any of it. Very happy that he’s playing for us. Must have been good for you to meet one of our own. COYS
Comes across as an excellent bloke and my god what a defender he is! Obviously Maddison is gonna get all the plaudits from fans but this dude has been just as important to Spurs.
VDV recruitment by Spurs is honestly a steal. 40 million of a defender who plays as a top 3 defender in the league. Unbelievable. His pace, defending, decision making, passing, and personality is just perfect. His pace especially is a cheat code
Watched him live first day of the season at Brentford, he eats up the ground like a demon, immensely imposing in stature. Very impressive. Would love to see him have a go at the 400 metres rather than the 100, I reckon he would clock a seriously impressive time over that distance.
I think I would give it to Dias as a defender he is better, Stones is that Rolls-Royce Defender that clubs want but dias is the wall teams needs anticipation, football IQ and leadership Stones is 2nd for me
Your statement doesn’t really make sense. If Dias is better defensively then by definition he’s the better CB. The CB primary role is to defend. If you’re saying John Stones is a better player that’s different but CB it’s clearly Dias
Thanks Michael, obviously I agree with you about City players, I'm a Man City fan from Manchester. Dias is the best defender, and he marshalls the defence. Stones is also WC and he can move forward with the ball like a midfield player.
Think it’s partly to do with the thumbnails where Saliba who’s not even mentioned in this video is in. Saliba is a decent centreback but nowhere near the best.
It will be interesting to see who koeman will pick for his euro squad. He’s always had injuries there since stepping in, with botman timber van de ven ake de ligt etc. But imagining all those names will be fit for euro..damn that’s a tough choice. Netherlands play 5 at the back, i dont think koeman will take more than 6-7 cbs at max. Choices are van de ven and ake for the left, botman van dijk and de vrij for the middle, and de ligt timber Geertruida and maybe even van Hecke at brighton or schuurs at torino. I see 1 or 2 really good cbs missing out.
@@Dionysus66 Konate = Liverpool CL/League Winners Varane = Madrid CL/League winners Deschamp has his favorites as does Southgate and other international coaches. Does not change the fact that he is the best French Defender. There was a time Upamechano was the next best thing as well but look how that turned out. The hype around Saliba is warranted. Varane has improved Man.U but not as much as Saliba did for Arsenal. Facts are facts. And stats dont mean everything.
This guy hasn't never played against another leagues top centre half lmao how is it relevant. He'd not know if Rudiger was better or worse than Holding, only as an armchair fan like us lot
@@HigherOrderBeing I only mentioned the centre backs in the EPL cause that is what OP commented about. Otherwise I would’ve definitely mentioned De Ligt and De Vrij as well
There’s a myriad of great cbs, mostly in the prem but I wouldn’t classify any of them as the best in the world. Those three or so years of VVD was peak great cb. He’s fallen off a peg since injuries and age but he’s still a good player.
The answer is Kim Min-jae of Bayern Munich. But the thing is, it's just depressing how Premier League focused the comments are. The video is asking "Who is the best centre back in the WORLD". Not the Premier League. I'm British but I know about football outside of these shores. Please, get out of your heads for a minute and realise football doesn't begin and end here.
Spurs struck gold with this guy. Brilliant defender.
@AaAa-uq4hxI would say he has higher ceiling than Jan. This kid has the potential to be the best in the world. He is truly special, especially his pace which I’ve never seen before in central defender.👍🏽
@AaAa-uq4hxso true 🔥🔥❤
His pace doesn't make sense for his size. Beyond rapid
He's left footed as well 😂
@@Rebelass74I agree & have been saying to anyone who’ll listen “within 2 years, this lad will be recognised as the best CB in the world”.
What a genuinely lovely bloke Micky is, great to chat to him
Ok smithy, now let's have you chat with a BETTER centre back in Harry Maguire. Thanks...
He comes across as so down to Earth, level headed, and doesn’t get carried away with any of it. Very happy that he’s playing for us. Must have been good for you to meet one of our own. COYS
@@timeisontheessence Lmao 😂
Unbelievable player. We’ve got a diamond with this one..
COYS Smithy 💪
Love everything about him! His play, his talent, personality, his face, height, sense of humor, so easy to talk with, etc. We love you Micky! COYS 😍❤
Comes across as an excellent bloke and my god what a defender he is! Obviously Maddison is gonna get all the plaudits from fans but this dude has been just as important to Spurs.
We Spurs fan arent like that...we love Micky as well we love em alll...we even still love poch...next match gonna b huge!
Our most important player for me.
VDV is going to be like Jan verthogen of spurs
He’s like Vertonghen with 99 pace
Better
Greater than that
Better than Jan
So win nothing too then? Gotcha.
an absolute unit on the pitch, and class act off of it. Worth every penny x100
I love when young players speak with so much honesty and maturity.
VDV recruitment by Spurs is honestly a steal. 40 million of a defender who plays as a top 3 defender in the league. Unbelievable. His pace, defending, decision making, passing, and personality is just perfect. His pace especially is a cheat code
Honestly, his pace (and general quality) completely unlocked our ability to play a high line
He is one in a million
His recovery when they play the high line and someone gets in behind is absurd. He's a great cover defender similar to what Kyle Walker can do
Great player not top 3 in prem at all though, decent bargain.
@@tommeredith5920 he is currently
He's a good guy and What a defender he is. 💯
I said he would quickly become PL's favorite. Here he is. Our Micky!
micky is so cute🤍 love him our best CB
What an awesome player, feel lucky to have him on my team.

😂😂😂
I mean your not wrong🤷♂️
He is!!!
City players are just so good, I think stones is the best city center back. Defensively Dias is better but all round stones is crazy good
I think I would give it to Dias as a defender he is better, Stones is that Rolls-Royce Defender that clubs want but dias is the wall teams needs anticipation, football IQ and leadership Stones is 2nd for me
Stones reminds me of Rio Ferdinand
Your statement doesn’t really make sense. If Dias is better defensively then by definition he’s the better CB. The CB primary role is to defend. If you’re saying John Stones is a better player that’s different but CB it’s clearly Dias
Thanks Michael, obviously I agree with you about City players, I'm a Man City fan from Manchester. Dias is the best defender, and he marshalls the defence. Stones is also WC and he can move forward with the ball like a midfield player.
Agreed
I actually really like him, hard to dislike this spurs team.
All the Arsenal fans in the comments talking about Saliba when he wasn't even mentioned in the video, such a insecure fanbase 😂
Truck back saliba was interviewed too nd choose Dias as the best CB..
Think it’s partly to do with the thumbnails where Saliba who’s not even mentioned in this video is in. Saliba is a decent centreback but nowhere near the best.
@@kdiwinterSaliba isn’t ‘decent’ he’s a ridiculous talent and only 21 I’ve seen him deal with haaland, mbappe etc
@@kdiwinter’decent’☠️
Saliba the best cb in the world
I bloody love him
The second we was linked with him - I wanted him. Even over tapsoba.
What. A. Signing.
Yet another top CB saying Ruben is the best… people need to start putting more respect on his name. #30 in the Ballon D’or is a robbery
Nunes what’s the score
Araujo better
@@Triple_X_X imagine letting jude score 2 lmao
He is a dutch national and still said Dias over VVD
Kolo Muani ranked higher 😂
Totally in love with him since 2021 ❤
As a Dutchy, it's such a waste we have 84 world class centre backs 😂
xD
Tallest guys in Europe, it makes sense
@@SalibaGabriel-kx6dm yet no world class goalies, arguably the tallest position in the team :'(
@@Overhemd yea😂
Love him🥰
The Dutch could put out an eleven of top quality centre-backs at the moment.

Even as an Arsenal fan, This guy so far has been a MONSTER for spurs.
Best 3 CBs in the league : Diaz, Saliba, VDVen!!!
respect, although i’d say it goes Diaz Romero Saliba VdV imo
Saliba and Romero close though could be bias on my part
Does Saliba start for the French national team?
@@Dionysus66 Konate = Liverpool CL/League Winners Varane = Madrid CL/League winners

@@SMGTTY Stats can be misleading, I'll give you that, but they are still meaningful. But yeah, fair enough about the coaches favourites
See him talking about rashford being a top player❤️ I’ve always known rashford to be a quality winger💯❤️
He speaks very well and has a great personality. No wonder spurs paid the big bucks for him
Gareth told me it’s Harry Maguire.
So good in interviews
damn he's so freaking handsome
He will be one of the best defenders in the worle
I have to say Micky is looking incredible right now. 🔥
What a guy 🔥 from a city fan
he's so lovely. ♥
And another top player said Ruben Dias is the best cb in the world 😌

No way Militao and Alaba are better defenders

Well spoken lads 👍
Micky looks just like one of the lads, if he was in the street you’d think he was a road man or something, sound guy, loved this episode.
Bloody love Micky, he could be our signing of the season
Just got the away shirt with his name. That much I love him already. COYS
Such a humble guy!! And as a swiss spurs fan the picking of roger federer makes him even more likeable haha
Spurs’ most important player & within two years will be recognised as the best CB in the world.
I got a new favourite footballer & its Micky!🎉
Our man!!!! 🇳🇱
Don't even have to watch.. Ruben Dias not even a debate.
Hes a good lad
He just got my respect as a city fan he knows ball
세계 최고 센터백 토트넘 미키 판더밴!!!
We can all agree Dias 30th in ballon dor is pathetic
Apparently to be a top class centre back in the epl you need to be Dutch and have the initials with VVD in them
Currently you just need to be Dutch😂 when all fit VVD, VDV, Aké, Botman and Timber will be called up for the national team
@@AvaAmarena94you forgot de ligt

so handsome
Ruben Dias

Well Harry Maguire should be in the conversation when it comes to all round defending
80m bargain for United 🎉
😂😂😂, still can’t believe he’s the most expensive defender itw
Are you serious????
He's not even average at elite level
Big up from Mykonos faaamm!🥳🤠😎
He didn't choose Romero his team mate.
Honest guy but with time, he and Romero will take up the spot for the best CB pairing in the world!
Shar and Botman!!

Lad knows ball🎉
What a good guy.
Seems like all the spurs players are good guys.
GREAT LAD, COYS!

wolfsburg lost a gem with this one, we miss you micky
The question should have been who's better then Micky and Romero in the league
your all looking at a world class player in a few years REMEMBER THIS
Please stop the background music
Nice personality
Handsome guy too
VDV is this season's Botman. Looks class.
사람 자체가 선해보이고 주력도 환상적이고
There’s a myriad of great cbs, mostly in the prem but I wouldn’t classify any of them as the best in the world. Those three or so years of VVD was peak great cb. He’s fallen off a peg since injuries and age but he’s still a good player.
your saying that ruben dias is not the best cb in the world!!?
Nah ruben dias is currently better than araujo minjae
Best defender in the league this season✅…….argue with yourself
Legend in the making!! Up the spurs⚪️
The best Dutch CB itw
micky‼️🥶
Will be one of the best defenders very soon
Van de ven is the best
Araujo
Mickey will be 😊
He’s a good lad 🤍

Totally agree with you. Kim Min-jae is the best centre back.

He reminds of a young version of VVD. If he can keep performing consistently, he has a great ceiling
he misses going to Albert Heijn

Did you really just say "de vridge" for de vrij, said "de vr-eye"!!
I hope I am wrong but I won't be surprised if city come knocking for him in a couple of years
Sven Botman.
