Davide Santon spoke to Sky, here are his words:
“I’m fine, recovering after months of not playing at Newcastle because of the accident, and I’m slowly reaching the top of my form.”
You are still called the baby?
“It does not bother me being called so because it is a beautiful memory, but I’m grown now, I’m even a Dad and have a family, I grew so much in England, both on and off the pitch.”

It’s too early to make general conclusions, but I think that by the end of the season he’ll be recognised as our best fullback. Not like there’s a lot of competition.
Yes and from what I’ve saw he’s better on the right. He can cover left flank if its needed, but his stronger position is on the right, which means that we have to look for solution for the left flank.
We have 5 full backs right now. Jonny is leaving at the end of the season leaving us with Dodo and Nagatomo on the left and D’ambrosia and Santon on the right. of course 3 of those guys can play both sides. Dodo needs either time or a new club and if nagatomo can be upgraded then we may as well sell him too
Good that he played in PL, his physical game really helps in serie A
His play is more polished now, so he has grown on and off field
Has grown*, boys, grown instead of grew. 😉
I had completely forgot about him ! Good thinking ausilio !!!!! Bravo
