He's terrible at defense and adds negative value to our attack.
Why he plays is beyond me.
Squad player at best.

Been underwhelming overall but I will go against the grain slightly here - thought he defended OK in the second half, from what I heard anyway.
Good lord.
Perhaps if we played Aurier we might have won today.
We've lost one game in the league all season - Aurier didn't play a part in it mate....
If a player isn’t performing then why not call it like it is? Don’t think anyone has gone over board and asked for him to be sold in January but let’s be real here, he has been sub par and aurier has been performing at a higher level.It was tongue in cheek. I can understand slagging off players who cost us a match but Doherty didn't cost us the match today. We won.
I guess I just don't understand people who go looking for a reason to be upset when there really isn't a need to be. Especially with a ref as bent as that one.
COYS.

The Soton right back looks pretty good...He’ll be a solid back up when we sell Aurier next year and bring in a young Reguilon type.
In fairness aurier was poor against a shit antwerp team. Although i thought doherty had given away a penoIf a player isn’t performing then why not call it like it is?

On a side note I think aurier and reggie on the same field also gives our attack better symmetry. Doherty is too slow to create space on the break.
I’m not writing him off but he is behind aurier for me definitely.

Mate where’s this coming from? He gave away 2 free kicks tonight and could have given away a pen on another day if VAR looked properly. He gets ghosted past whenever he is dribbled at, he has no recovery pace at all either.He is defensively solid, with aurier he can always have brainfart here and there
What about the Brighton one? Lamptey I think...?The Soton right back looks pretty good...
Because the co-commentator on BBC Radio 5-live (which I listened to) made the remark several times that he upped his defensive game in the second half after a poor defensive performance in the first 45 mins? Seemed quite keen to point out he got better later on. Personally, I would trust the views of an experienced commentator than cadging off comments on a fan forum, in which many people a) don't see the game themselves and b) turn out to be wrong in their judgments anyway. Naturally I would rather be at the game...
