He did make a great recovering sliding tackle as the attacker ran into the box.
He was definitely out of sorts though.

And I think they’ll won’t lose him!

His post literally said he hadn’t watched him much and used the words “based off tonight”.

Own goal aside, I think he was quite good defensively..? Not to mention his team was down a player for 30+ minutes.

Exactly, when Clubs attach ridiculously high valuations to players means they're desperate to keep them and only a huge bid, way above a more realistic valuation, will likely be accepted.

Hard to make a decision otherwise, when it's only the third time I've seen him.

But you would weigh this U21 game over the game where he was fantastic against us?

I know he has been off his game but isn't this what Trippier has been getting abuse for most of the season?

I certainly didn't think he was excellent against us at all.

What's he like going forward?
28ish of the 38 games we play will be against teams who are sitting back for most of the game, our fullbacks will be attacking more than they have to defend. Sess could be that kind of player for us on the left, just need someone who can do it from the right.
Pretty envious of the Dippers having Trent and Robinson.

Yup. For me, he’s a player with excellent potential who could, with a bit of experience, turn out to be a top class full back.
But you’re buying potential, not the finished article.
I can see why you’d pay over the odds to get Ndombele, but for him you’d be OK paying 40 or so, but you just can’t justify the figures being bandied around because he’s not that player yet

I watched the 2nd half last night and AWB showed me pretty much what I expected to see but also some things that I did not.
He defended well, he was beaten once that I can recall but still made a good challenge to clear the ball for a corner just before the winger got a shot off. His one on one defending is certainly his strength but as shown with the OG - which was absolutely criminal btw - he's still clearly a young player that lacks some awareness and in-game maturity.
From an attacking perspective he was positive and got forward often. He made one good cut back which could and maybe should've led to a goal but the attacking player got it stuck under his feet.
Certainly agree that you can't judge him solely on this performance, if you did then he certainly wouldn't be worth 50-70m. That said, there were some red flags there and I do think that stylistically he might not be the right fit for us.
He really needs to stay at Palace. He's not ready for a big move IMO and it could easily go the same way as Zaha's failed Utd move if he does.
