Trippier really gets on my nerves with his unwilingness to try and beat his man. Davies isn’t the most technical player around, but he’ll at least try to get the cross in. While Trippier cuts back to one of the mids 8 times out of 10. Moreover, his hand flapping annoys me. He seems genuinely scared on the pitch at times.And then the backups became first choice and seemingly some people want them to remain first choice. At this level, they are both good back ups. Could start for teams lower than us but to be where we want to, they should not be preferred. And Trippier should go this summer as he’s only blocking a really good FB who fits us far more.
As pointed out, we need to upgrade our FBs, but not sure who’s around that is available and better than what we have.
