Still he is not a wet behind the ears either. I am not singling him out either Akanji did give a little warning with a lapse in concentration as well. I even joked about forgetting the post match Fondue in the match thread.

He has cost us £77m got to expect a little more than potential.
Who is talking about potential, don't be so daft.
We are talking about him being one of the best defenders in the business. He is looking far from that. He should be switched on for the whole game.Who is talking about potential, don't be so daft.

Just stupid errors again. Gave them 2 goals.
I still think he's top quality and he can iron these mistakes out

Made some horrible errors tonight but couldn’t help but feel sorry for him. He’s still a young lad and there was no sign of a captain putting an arm around him after the first or second error. Sums us up at present
Yep, like the lack of leadership is startling.
Kev came on and hung Simpson Pusey out to dry, whilst our captain probably fucked off early to shag another slag behind his family's back

He looks shot to bits. Pep sitting there with his head in his hands after the mistake for 3-1 can’t have helped his confidence either. Wtf is going on at the minute?Made some horrible errors tonight but couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.

It looked to me like Pep was sarcastically applauding after the second goal as well.He looks shot to bits. Pep sitting there with his head in his hands after the mistake for 3-1 can’t have helped his confidence either. Wtf is going on at the minute?

How on earth is he at fault for anything but the first goal?
He is our best creator and second best goalscorer this season so needs to playing every single game he is fit, mistakes happen.

I said a month ago he needs a Kompany like partner alongside him to build his confidence and experience . He is OK going forward down the left but gets totally exposed as a left sided defender. He cost us the Cup Final and many games since -his confidence will soon be shot. He looks just as bad as he did in the late stages of the World Cup after rave reviews early on.
Gave a stupid pass to one of our players who was marked by two Feyenoord players to gift them the ball and couldn't stop the cross from coming in, Ederson shouldn't have allowed the ball to go past him but it was all started by another stupid decision from Gvardiol.How on earth is he at fault for anything but the first goal?

He's hung out to dry playing left of a 3 man defence. Salah will destroy him.How on earth is he at fault for anything but the first goal?

Thought he was playing well up to the first mistake, confidence is fragile
But it's not his positioning at LB or some winger burning him that I'm worried about, it's these brainfarts that no should make even out of position, there is no excuse for them.I said a month ago he needs a Kompany like partner alongside him to build his confidence and experience .

Sorry but he leaves a winger unmarked . When he does go towards them in the corner they just pass or run past him into our box and its ending up with goal after goal and that's before you add in the unforced errors.But it's not his positioning at LB or some winger burning him that I'm worried about, it's these brainfarts that no should make even out of position, there is no excuse for them.
I doubt playing him in this position will improve him because he has no pace and turns like a slowest tank. It's wishful thinking to believe he'll become a world-class wing-back, left-back, or left-side defender, as Pep hoped. The same mistakes have been repeated since the FA Cup final, with every opponent continuing to exploit the same pattern to attack our weakest flank. Scoring a few goals here and there doesn’t make him the best left-back or a classy defender at all!

Needs to be benched Salah will rip him a new one on Sunday if he plays
Yes but that's on Pep since he's not a natural LB. the unforced errors though are not acceptable.Sorry but he leaves a winger unmarked .

Agree. He’s making mental mistakes. It’s killing us but unless Dias can play I don’t see how gvardiol doesn’t. But I agree he needs a break. Same with a few of the other to be fair but we are bare bonesPlayed way too many games, seems like his body can handle it but not his mind
