As bad as I’ve seen in a one vs one situation during any season we’ve played in the PL.
Of course he’s a better all round defender than some of the dross from the bad old days but goodness me, I don’t recall many, if any, being this bad one on one.
It’s more annoying that some of the time all he needs to do is stand up to the attacker instead of going to ground and he’d win the ball back. He must be our least intelligent player by far.
One of the most telling points from yesterday was that Wolves seemed to target him instead of Fernandinho.
If you were a football coach you would be mad not to. Put your quickest player near Otamendi and just tell him to run at him. He had cut most of this diving in out but it has crept back in and it’s in full flow now! Otamendi has no competition for the foreseeable future due to Peps reluctance to
play any of the younger players and this reflects in his performances. Poor player. Cost us the game at Norwich and contributed to that yesterday albeit in a side full of average and shite performances.
