I’m guessing a hint of sarcasm ?

Such a bad decision by the ref, that ended with a disallowed goal
Looked like White won the ball, I nearly stood up and applauded it looked so good.
Even McManaman said it was a great tackle, and that he couldn't have done better.

If Van Dijk had made such a tackle the commentators would still be stroking themselves over it. Hideous decision.
He’s getting better and better. Needs to stay at centre back, going to be one of the best in the country.

Told my son when I saw it, that's how you make a tackle
The ref will hopefully be disappointed with his decision when he watches it back.

Agree twice he played them onside / very nearly played them onside as the last man. I know that Bielsa manager nobody had heard of until Leeds fans made out he was God has had a year with him, but we need to correct some of the poor coaching from that year in division 2.

Interesting that article mentions Wyscout a lot but no mention of sources for this story.
I wonder if his agent is involved somewhere again, seem to remember he liked Sky Sports!

This article suggests it his agent stirring things yet again: https://strettynews.com/2020/12/01/...-with-brightons-ben-white-not-to-be-believed/
Do you need a source to believe that they are monitoring his progress? Young English central defender doing well in the Premier League... yeah I think they've heard of him and are "monitoring" him.
Yes, obviously, that’s what I’m getting at.
It’s a strange article specifically referring to him being the 4th best defender according to Wyscout and why now? Seems very much like agent work to me, theres no reason for such an obscure story to suddenly appear.
Certainly does suggest that, doesn't it. SSN - predictably - just broadcast the bit that said Spurs, Chelsea and ManU are interested (they also added that Liverpool have said they're not interested).
B-right-on
Living the dream
Usual click bait, space filling, lazy journalism.
Stats are one thing and actually playing the game is another. Whilst he's been good, I wouldn't label him 'outstanding' like Lamptey.
Why would Ben go to one of those clubs and be 3rd or 4th string defender? Opposite move to Lamptey.

He's played in, at least, 3 different positions.
He's played in a back 3, 5 and 4.
At no point has he looked 'lost'.
To my untrained eye he even seems to be improving, game on game.
He's only played in 8 (?) Premier League matches.
"Been good" already seems a little harsh.
Lamptey is fast, exciting and given the pitch to enjoy.
White is given considerably more responsibility and so far he's proved himself more than capable of handling it.
