Time to change the nickname?He's one of the worst defenders we've had years and years. Anyone suggesting otherwise is in denial. Liverpool didn't play as well as the media are suggesting. Our defence NOT our tactics gifted them most of their goals.
I think he's a good defender. A good defender in this system though is an entirely different matter and remains to be seen.Had some decent games, had some dreadful games.
I'd normally say "he's young and learning" but my concern is more about his ability and mobility.
Think he is one of those defenders that looks better with real protection in front and by his side as he can probably show his strengths more such as blocking etc and not worry about movement around him.
Hopefully you'll realise how ridiculous this statement is once you've recovered from the disappointment of yesterday's game. We've moved on five inferior CBs in the past couple of years alone.He's one of the worst defenders we've had years and years.
I agree that it was our defence, not our tactics. However we need to manage our expectations of how our third-choice CB should perform when he isn't rotating into an established defensive unit. We were missing four of our back five, or five of our back six if you include Bentancur, who would surely have started ahead of (and done a better job of shielding the defence than) Bissouma if available.Anyone suggesting otherwise is in denial.

Who do you think was supposed to be leading the defensive line to coordinate an effective offside trap? Your options:Maybe a language issue but he isn't good at playing the offside trap
