I was using mangala as an example of a player down the pecking order that suddenly finds himself thrust into the team,that is what's happened to nico and why i'm not getting on his back,i wasn't talking about actual vinny with mangala playing timeI’m not disputing a difference in quality between the two, but to say Lescott was, or would have been shit without Vinny isn’t correct.
And to say Vinny lead Mangala wouldn’t be much near the truth. I doubt the statistics say they played that much together during their both injury blighted spells throughout that period and our relative lack of success through 2015-2017
Just watching a replay of the Wolves game and his 'defending' sticks out like a sore thumb
5th minute - Flys out to try and cut the ball off in midfield, misses, as a result Dinho has to try and chase down Cutrone who goes in on goal
19th minute - Loose long pass from Mahrez back to goal is intercepted by Jimenez. Otamendi one on one with Jimenez, with Dinho quickly closing in support, Otamendi instead dives in & goes to ground, missing. Dinho required to produce two blocks to stop shot on goal
22nd minute - Otamendi attempts long back pass to Dinho, intercepted by Jimenez again. Dinho has to chase down and manages to restrict Jimenez's space to stop a shot on goal
80th minute - Cancelo dallies around in the opposition half losing the ball, causing Jimenez to break fast. Two on two situation with other City players coming back in support, instead Otamendi's brain explodes as he dives in again, misses, that creates two on one with Dinho. Jimenez squares the ball to Traore, goal
94th minute - Wolves break and Otamendi no where to be seen. Ball goes through to Traore who outpaces Dinho, scores
And those are pretty much all the main chances Wolves had.
If that doesn't scream liability, I don't know what does. Every time, Otamendi screws up, Dinho has to try and salvage.
Is the correct answer.. Like I said, this will probably be his last season for us. For me, he's earned a bit more respect than what he gets.. If Eric and John were 100% fit then he wouldn't be playing every week and thus wouldn't be the fall guy when we have an off day The team wins or loses for me, it gets a bit shitty when individuals get dug out, especially the same ones..This is all getting fucking boring now. Yes he had a mare and so did everyone else. That game was a week ago and still so called fans still want to pile in on him.
Nail on head but sadly some unable to realise this and always need to blame someoneIs the correct answer.. Like I said, this will probably be his last season for us.
