Im with Molby on this Agger is the future, and as for being slow ,looks can be decieving Class shows at any pace ..
The other thing is he can run with the ball. While we don't want someone being a bit too clever a la Traore and making a pig's ear, or getting caught in possession, it means a little less predictability. Close down the rest of our CBs and they go back to the keeper, play the ball square or hoof upfield. Rate rio or not, he can bring the ball forward and that can create space instead of having all passing options shut out
