14 | Aymeric Laporte - 2022/23 Performances

[OrigamiNinja]

I’m more arsed about his missed header from 4 yards. That’s the game done and dusted.

He is absolutely awful at defending. His ability to help in our supposed "build up" is also overrated.

He's a good passer of the ball.

When Rodri plays alone at CDM without anyone else dropping back and opponents block off the lanes to him, that leaves our defenders only able to pass between themselves or go long.

Akanji, Ake and Dias (for all their other qualities) don't have a lot of passing vision.

So in the absence of Stones (who has both an eye for a pass and the ability to carry the ball forward out of defence), we need Laporte to do some of those line-breaking passes if we want to go forward with any pace.

That's why he can't play against elite opposition. He is a defender who doesn't like defending

Heads it down and we win that.

 

[Chak19]

Missed a sitter and got done like an amateur for the equaliser, that's the difference between him and Ake, Ake is not as technically gifted but he doesn't fuck about.

If anyone cares to watch how this so called 'international defender' steps out of the way to allow the Forest player free entry into our box and creating their goal is flabbergasting. An 11 year old would get a rollicking for that.

Christ. Forgot about that.

glad he’s going in summer… ake over this mardass any day

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Why was he even picked today? Was Ake injured? If not why did Pep feel the need to change the CB pairing yet again. I don’t know any other side that do this. It’s madness.

Closing your eyes to head a ball(unmarked) at goal from 4 yrds out instead of picking your spot is borderline criminal.
Cost us the 3pts in my opinion
