      Would anyone argue against this fella being our best defender this season?  He came back into the side after the Spurs debacle and we have our best run of the season, yet gets dropped when Matip gets fit or VVD comes in.

      He might not be a world beater but his form warranted a sustained run in the side IMO, and he should be partnering VVD.  Not only that but his forward passing and link between defence and attack is sorely missed considering the shithouses we have in midfield.

      A very underrated player in my view.

      I agree 100%, I think he and VVD would form a very good partnership together and it would be my preferred combo. I certainly don't like Matip at the moment, I'd even take Lovren over Matip.

      Always thought he was decent.  Never really understood those who liked to have a pop at him. I've always thought he was reliable and tends to just concentrate on his defending (apart from when he's scoring matchwinners of course).

      Something to do with his pricetag, age and the fact we didn't buy him from a top club, not a sexy enough name in this image obsessed world

      His touch with float passes is better than Matip and Dejuan (haven’t seen VVD enough to know). He had a few balls this year that were created chances. He put a pass on someone (Solanke maybe?) in preseason that was out of this world good and led to a goal. I like Ragnar, and out of the 3 CBS we had he was the only one who was excited to get VVD and welcome the competition. Shows his character and the lack there off of the other two. I actually think Klavan May be the best bet to play next to Virgil.

      Damn right. A very underrated player indeed and certainly worth much more than the £3 million (or something close to that figure) we paid for him.

      Klavan's been left out of the Estonia squad for their clashes with Lithuania, Latvia and Morocco while he recovers from a “long-term health problem.”

      Sold to Cagliari for £2m. Bit disappointed in this news. Thought the service he offered when called upon was excellent and something he could still offer here especially with us looking a bit thin at the back currently.

      So long Rag - you will be remembered fondly especially for that injury time winner at Burnley, probably my favourite moment in the league last season. Thanks a million Rag!

      Always seemed like a good guy but almost 33 and injury prone so makes sense to get some money for him rather than letting him go on a free next Summer.

      Phillips looks like he's ready to step up this season so we are already have cover.

      So long Rag YNWA.

      He has a 91% successful pass rate ... much better than Henderson's. (Source : Squawka)

      Never said he was a world beater did I? Just a solid reliable backup who did the job and could occasionally put in MOTM displays like during that 1-0 victory over Everton back in December 2016.

      He was a decent for us, we knew what we were getting when we got him and he always did a good job when called upon much likes of Kolo or Kyrgiakos when they played at the club. Hoping the best for him in Serie A

      A decent reserve CB but I think Nat Philips is a better option, I have high hopes for him.
      Anyway thanks Ragnar and all the best.

      His header goal will always be burnt into my brain. For that I am grateful. YNWA Ragnar
