I repeat we have a defender that can't defend or tackle.

When people were raving about him being "on form" i knew full well it was because he wasn't tackling. 15 tackles in a whole season only rivaled by Son and a 60% success rate. This season his success rate has actually got worse.

We have to instruct one of our defenders to not tackle. Read it again, we have to instruct a fucking defender to not tackle in order to not mess anything up. His role in the central CB position is to head the ball out and get a block if you can (he can't fucking lead can he).

when will this absolute joke stop? when will we finally get rid instead of trying to mask his weaknesses?
 
This is a really entertaining game to be fair.. ball is pinballing around the place. Both sides are playing with intensity, I didn't really expect us to go so hard in the first half. It has changed my mind about us needing two new centre backs in January though, I think we might need three.
 
I missed the first 12 mins so didn't see the first goal but thought we played well overall first half and only behind due to diers usual ineptitude. If we can keep that attacking play up we can win this game. 343 much better for this side attacking.
 
Can see why Spence and Doc can't take Emersons place, giving the ball away, nowhere defensively and won't cross cause can't cross. These two could never achieve those particular skills.
