What exactly was Dier thinking? Werner had his back to goal for christ sake.

these players are so dumb, no wonder they break lockdown rules

The initial challenge was good and the foul was only down to excellent opportunism by Werner. What was Dier meant to do, leave it?

Yes. Even as an amateur level defender I'd know that leaving my foot in like that will give the guy an excuse to trip himself up. Its just stupid defending, especially when another defender is nearby.

True, and he also knew his role as the water carrier in those United teams. We won’t progress as a club with Dier as first choice CB.

If this is the team's response from our poor form then we are fucked. Zero passing, zero movement, zero confidence. We are done.

We all know our defence is so bad, so why are we playing so defensive every week putting so much pressure on them

can legislate for individual mistakes, but the more and more pressure they’re under, there’s going to be mistakes

He's bang average.

We had 6 players defending there and nobody pressed even when they were on the edge of our area. This is tactical not the players refusing tackle

How many In row until he gets sacked. Annoyingly we probably need to wait for to be out of every cup.

Once gain. Individual errors. If you’re blaming that on Mourinho you’re an absolute brick.

But when the team is so prone to individual errors it's a mistake to constantly base your game on not conceding and soaking up pressure.
