Wales is playing Canada now. Both Wilson and LDF start.
Anyone watch this game? How did our boys do?

Holy poo, this has Harry Wilson vibes to it.

LDF will most definitely start in the World Cup if he keeps this level of play up. I am Canadian so have been overjoyed with having him on the team.
Wilson played hard nosed but Richie Laryea was getting under his skin at every opportunity possible.
I really like Diop but I can see him being moved on in the summer and this young lad taking his place.

Yes, I'll be disappointed if LDF doesn't make it onto at least the bench on a regular basis next season.
He looks better every time I see him.

LDF looked quality, Wilson was mediocre , boring game though with tippy tappy slow moving football, although Canada looked the better team
He has more caps for a top 30 national team than he does as a pro footballer.
He is ready next season or he will be elsewhere imo.
Agree he has to be a part of the first team squad by next season.
LDF is another asset we could sell for big bucks. He however will surely to looking to eventually take over from Andersen, wish he was a bit taller but perfectly suited to high level football.
I think he needs a Championship loan before playing for Fulham, see how he copes with the physicality.

There is a pathway available for him as I see it. He could initially replace Diop (or possibly Cuenca) as a solid squad player and gain experience. That should put him in a great position to go on to replace Andersen.
Totally agree he has a bright future here. Think he got injured last season hence why he stayed out of the matchday squad more often than not.
Dender loan move this year, will get him used to playing club football regularly. Would expect LDF to be back in the squad next season.
I love that his first thought in possession invariably seems to be to drive forward with the ball.
His stats for successful carries must be highly impressive for a CB

His stats for successful carries must be highly impressive for a CB definitely showing promise I think size will always be the issue but he looks like he's trained on and is improving.

If that was case wouldn't he be on our Bench now?

If he replaces Diop on the he's going the right way.
