Yeah, I feel for him. It's a bullshit decision and he had a relatively good game up until that point.
But on paper, it will still confirm that 3 of the 4 goals we've conceded this season have involved Eric Dier. The awful defending for the Everton winner, the poor defending for the Ings opener and the handball for the late Newcastle equaliser.
But even at the back end of last season when we returned to action following COVID - he had a hand in 3 of the 5 goals we conceded with him at the back. The penalty against United which allowed Fernandes to score the equaliser. And the awful positioning for two of the Sheffield Utd goals in the 3-1 loss.
That isn't bad luck. It's bad defending.
