In a game where defending seems to be becoming a bit of a lost art, where even the richest clubs struggle at times to find good defenders, Skrtel is something of an old fashioned centre half.
He doesn't like to play too high a line, he likes players coming on to him and loves a tackle, can dominate in the air and isn't a bad passer. He gets a few goals as well.
He's come in for a lot of stick this season. Some deserved, a lot not deserved.
He'll make the occasional mistake, as all centre backs do, but he gets back up and keeps going.
He loves the club and isn't forever whining to the press (you hear that Agger? ).
He's not the most gifted defender we've ever had, but I have never seen him give anything less than 100% on the pitch.
He'll do for me.
Well in Skrtel. Let's just hope BR remembers to bake you a cake
