He was also way out of position and show fuck all intent in getting back he gave up last 20 mins, which is totally disrespectful

Yes he was exposed. So was Rose. How many goals cam from Rose's flank how many from Aurier. He was out of position a lot, went to ground way to quickly, rather than delaying or blocking his marker, and for the 5th goal was both out of position and decided to literally jog in response to the run rather than, say, trying to delay or block him. OK maybe neither were possible, but for heavens sake, try.
He was exposed, but it was still one of the worst performances I've ever seen, and I'm not one who is quick to get on players backs. It's up there with Gilberto vs PSV (who did, in fairness try, he just had a shocker).

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an African footballer, who’s not a 6’5” holding midfielder with such a chronic lack of pace.

The formation didn't help and for me our CB were also atrocious quick enough to cover.

Terrible. I know it wasn’t intentional, but could have easily been sent off for that incident with Alaba. Don’t know what he was thinking.
Absolutely roasted by Gnabry in that second half. Truly woeful.

He’s so slow and I can’t really work out why. He’s got the build and frame of a sprinter.

Good point - a strong chance he could have been sent off. After Saturday. He is awful.

Ah, nothing beats an SC scapegoat thread but this one has some mild hints of racism in it, too.
Classy as ever.
Classy as ever.
He carries far too much muscle mass. Almost like having a ponderous, robotic action man type figure playing RB

The formation didn't help I agree. I think what annoys me is the attitude in coming back for the 5th goal, rather than the mistakes per say. But it's not a one off.
Aurier has been positionally very poor for a long time now, something people forgive him because most people kind of forget about positioning (same happened with Smith fans when he was in the youth team, though he has developed well). But also there are many times now where a lack of care, focus and good judgment has cost him, and by his previous comments (both here and in France) I just get the feeling that the team comes second to him, or he has a complete lack of judgment. In either case he has consistently failed to truly show that he has turned a corner.

He’s not a RB tho. You are way more intelligent than this.
