Ah, you’ll see. Bring in another one, and he’ll be the scale goat. We have fairly decent FBs, and they are not at all that big of an issue as people want to think.

We need an upgrade (probably on both sides) IMO.

My point is, next season it'll be someone else. We like a boo boy...

And yet he's had a hand in 2 different crucial goals to get us there.
Nice one though... ?

His defensive frailties outweigh what he gives going forward, generally.

So what were his 'defensive frailties' last night? Not being able to cope with a far bigger player (and Ajax's biggest threat) in the air from a corner?
Getting hit in the face and not immediately play acting before they smashed one in from outside the box?
It's a pile on again and its unwarranted tbh.

Can we just cool off on the criticism and support our players for the last two games! I’m sure it’s been said already but he seems to be playing through injury

It is all John Pratt's fault. I'm glad we cleared that one up.

Again, was he a 'defensive liability' last night or not? Describe how he was if it's not about the 2 goals.
If it is about the 2 goals, why is all the fucking blame on one player yet again?
For the first goal, how is giving away a completely needless goalscoring opportunity (Rose) worse than what happened with DeLigt in the box?
Were you expecting Trippier to win it in the air? Was DeLigt 'his man'?

Mouras second goal, it was only possible because of the drilled in low cross from Trippier that the 'keeper & CB couldn't deal with.
Not making excuses for anyone. If the negative is being highlighted, so should the positive.

Brilliant, a French journalist said it, so it must be true.

He wasn't meant to be marking deLigt, he was meant to be trying to stop deLigt getting a run at the ball. deLigt got straight past him and Trippier stood and watched as he scored. The goal wasn't Trippier's fault but him not doing his job or not being able to do it was a pretty substantial contributory factor. If anybody is to blame it's Poch for expecting a player with so little physicality take on that job. Should have given the job to Sissoko.

Yep as I mentioned earlier and not to go all Paolo he made 5 key passes last night so he made a significant attacking contribution.
Got to be fair.

Proved this year that hes not good enough. Need to replace him this summer.
