Well then YOU are the problem! You and no one else.I normally don't criticise Dier, but he's been useless today. Flapping his arms about, directing others, when he should be defending himself. He's had a terrible 45 minutes.
Son fanboys at work!This is shocking, BBC website half time player rating, Son has the highest score 6.7 ffs!
agree, needs a system change, instead of 3 donkeys at CB just have the 2.Not much Forster can do about those 3 Inacheo places that 3rd perfectly hardly surprising seeing as that useless fucker Dier gave him all the time in the world to do it. Get Dier off and Sarr on and go 4 at the back
He hasn't changed much?This. First of all, why fking change something that worked brilliantly last year to help us finish 4th? Second, why fking rely on Perisic so much?
Just waking up now to how shit Dier has been for the past 5 years....I normally don't criticise Dier, but he's been useless today. Flapping his arms about, directing others, when he should be defending himself. He's had a terrible 45 minutes.
Agreed.Back to normal then :contefacepalm:
Dier, Davies, Kane, Son have been crap. Perisic just needs taking to footballing dignitas. Porro's first 45 mins were a bit of a shocker. The winner of "most useless shite of the half" though goes to Kulusevski. He managed to control the ball once in the whole half, and then promptly gave it away by fucking up a rudimentary pass.
Worse though is that we're back to the chaotic wide open end to end displays that we saw through the Autumn and into the new year, which absolutely does not suit our players and seems to bring all the weaknesses and mistakes to the fore.
Fucking hell.
He's been dreadful. Lost count of the times he's given the ball away, pussied out of challenges, and failed to shield/hold up the ball.This is shocking, BBC website half time player rating, Son has the highest score 6.7 ffs!
They’ve been deluded into thinking because he came up next to Toby and vertonghen he’d be the main cb for the future. Only issue is that he’s not good enough.I'd say Dier is like a bench mark of sorts...
If he's in your starting XI barring injuries, you've fucked up CB recruitment. Unreal how lazy the club have been at addressing it.
We had Reguilon.
Reckon some of these cunts are saving themselves for the CL game.Only we could make the likes of Ihenacho and Mendy look like world beaters.
The attitude just looked all wrong in that half - strolling around constantly losing posession and the usual brainfarts in defence.
We've also done very little to threaten Leciester's awful defence.
We have options so Conte needs to send a message and hook at least two players at HT
Peresic is a liability and he has sold the team down the river, causing the defence to backpedal under pressure.Solid goalkeeper saves that. Dier is idiot no question about that.
Just wait until 2028 or whenever when some financial fair play thing may or may not kick in.
The alternative is worse. Same with the centre backs. Apart from Romero they are all total dogshit. It really doesn't matter who else playsPerisic should not player another game for us at LWB. Maybe he can be LW sometimes but not LWB, its suicidal.
