He'd suit the Spanish league better. If we can get a decent fee for him and use the money to bring in someone like De Vrij then why not

I agree the Spanish league perfect for him the PL is too physical for him

This fella just does not cut it. What happened to him? Under Conte, before the Barca clash, he was the first name on the sheet. But the CL knock out experience killed him. And Sarri then publicly took him down by saying he is shitting it before games.

Clearly not what we should have in the team. The sooner Lampard realizes it, the better for him.

He was weak even under Conte. 

Just not a top CB and won’t ever be. 

Yep, but the 3 at the back formation fit him so much better at least, it covered a lot of his flaws imo.

I think defenders for whom 3 CB formation suits better are defenders who are just not that good. It suits them better because they have more cover - Luiz, Alonso, Moses are good examples. It made them look world class, stick them in a 4 and they would crumble. Conte realized that early and it transformed us. It's the system's strength, a 4-man backline simply requires better individuals who can fend for themselves.

I don't get what's happened to him. That half a season when he returned he was the best young defender in the world. He may have been helped with the formation but we played the same formation when he wasn't playing and our defense was drastically worse off.

The only two things I can think of is he either got complacent after signing his new contract or his first big drop in form ruined him.

I think he has lost belief in himself, he has stopped believing he is a top defender since that Barca game. Being dropped by Conte, humiliated by Sarri and having spells out injured probably destroyed his long-term confidence. It's a mental issue I believe because earlier he really was much better than now.
