Son wasn't great, no but then his contribution this season speaks for itself.Ah here we go.
Failed to win, so its the usual suspects who get the abuse.
Son was worse. Has his thread been bumped?

I know that some people are all over the guy like he's the second coming. For 55 million or whatever it was i'm not seeing enough. I can see why people like him, he's about the only player we've got that will try and beat a man and in these barren times for entertainment that's something but I just think he could be doing more to put his stamp on games.
Come and grab the ball off the centre half when we can't string 2 passes together, just inject a bit of urgency into the team.
What's Sons contributions this season have to do with his wank performance today?
Go bump his thread and call out his performance.
You have a point but Ndombele has a number of rabid defenders who would pretend he wasn't doing poorly if he was pissing on the club crest and scoring three own goals a game.Ah here we go.

I'm referring to Ndombeles performance in the context of the season, not just today. That's why Son's contribution over the season is relevant since you asked. The guys that have carried us this season obviously buy themselves a bit of good will with the odd average performance.
When you compare him to other players bought in for the same price bracket some fancy footwork now and again don't cut the mustard with me. Needs to be winning games for us with stand out performances on a regular basis for that sort of money.
Did you saw ? GLC was poorly too during all the gameI don't think it's a coincidence that he apparently played poorly (I was unable to watch the game but yeah)
Winks' and GLC at fault no doubtDid you saw ? GLC was poorly too during all the game
If we could recoup our money I would sell him tomorrow.Why?
We signed a number 8 who barely scored and assisted for alot of money.
Why should we be expecting something different from him?
If you're expecting something different from someone who hasn't done what you were expecting. Then that's on you. Not Ndombele.
I don’t see what he’s doing for you to think he’s justified that price tag. I never said I expect him to bang in 15/20 goals but big players have big impacts in games on a regular basis. Whether that’s at centre half or centre forward.Why?

Just calling it as I see it.

He’s shown flashes he can have an impact but that’s it. We agree on one thing though, he’s not a number 10
Unlike you, I don't judge a player on the one thing they cant control. Their price tag.
But yes, he's not a #10.
