Jase 43,479 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 He should be fined for busy picking Lingaard up in the build-up to the second goal and considering we were already struggling then, it's absolutely farcical to see that and that from the captain!

If you wanna see the state of his defensive skills look at the last game where Rashford was running at him and Cahill started turning like a top. Exactly the same as when Lukaku scored on him. Today Rashford made a similar run at Luiz who wasn't fazed at all. The Skipper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,054 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 He's been living on borrowed time for a long while and the fact he's currently Captain is hilarious.Lets just get another CB that's English to fill his void. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,142 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I knew this would happen. I know he is not everyone's favourite but people wait for him to have a poor game then pounce. The other 2 games against United this season he was top class. The game against City the other day was probably our MOTM along with Hazard but like I said then, you won't see much people giving him praise because he is the no.1 scapegoat. Opinions will always be divided but he has been a big part of our success this season. Majority of season he has been class. Not on level of Luiz but still very good.

Keane seems like the only decent option around Great lets go sign an overhyped and I'd suspect over priced English CB who is nowhere near the level of Kurt Zouma and will likely cost 2-3 times what he did. Zouma has the potential to grow into an extraordinary CB if he can build up the understanding and technical side of his game, eventually I see him becoming that central defender in the back 3 or the one on the right he just needs to become more competent with his positioning at times and with the ball at his feet (ironically I'm going to use a = rather dodgy - comparison to young Micah Richards, he was a monster physically and used his physical attributes (pace and strength) to bail him out if he made a positional error/mistake, Zouma needs to build the other side of his game, which I feel he will to become a complete central defender), he will learn that, hes just recovering from a huge injury too with a new coach and new system. Next season he will be better. A lot better than Michael Keane anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HG!I'm not an advocate of spending money on anyone, but we need to start buying young English players for the long run.Zouma seems to have regressed since his injury and just looks so out of place. We really shouldn't need another CB if things work out with the youngsters we've got (Ake, Christiansen, Zouma, Miazga, etc). I just have my reservations with Conte giving them any run of games. Just look at Ake I knew this would happen. I know he is not everyone's favourite but people wait for him to have a poor game then pounce. The other 2 games against United this season he was top class. The game against City the other day was probably our MOTM along with Hazard but like I said then, you won't see much people giving him praise because he is the no.1 scapegoat.

Not on level of Luiz but still very good.I think it's more about people voicing the obvious instead of using him as a scapegoat. That title lies with Costa ahead of anyone.He has had good games here & there in the past, but he just looks all over the place when he comes up against anyone that plays direct. We need to be striving for a back three that are of a similar level going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ake's going to stay having been stuck on the bench since being recalled. I would have second thoughts on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they allowed to switch armbands on the pitch like that in the PL? I thought it was allowed only when they are substituted....also doubt Terry would have taken it even if it was handed to him.
