Hard to lay too much blame at his feet tonight, he's a right back that's known to get out of trouble for his lack of awareness with his pace playing at centre back, he simply shouldn't be asked to do that tonight u less we've got literally no other options, which clearly wasn't the case. piss poor from Pep.

However, some of it he should be doing better, some basic stuff tonight, not anticipating obvious runs, not closing down djenepo for their second allowing him a free shot from 20 yards. And then his fucking passing! Why the hell does he feel the need to absolutely rifle a ball into a blue shirt 10 yards away who's marked making it as difficult as possible to control?

He has to play weekend to handle Rashford but he needs to stop thinking he's better than he is, stick to his strengths accept your limitations and keep things simple to find some form before he finds himself behind an 18 year old permanently.
 
A fantastic player and a great servant to our club when asked to play in a position he can play in.

Play him at right back, and not inverted (if we want an inverted right back, play Rico).

Or play him on the right of a 3, fine. But he's not a centre-back in a back 4. Did any of us think he was?
 
It’s hilarious that people still think he’ll move to centre back as he gets older. He has almost no awareness of what’s going on around him and his passing is piss poor. We’d have been better playing one of the EDS centre backs tonight
 
Hes tried him as an inverted full back and as CB this season.

Hes a right back, thats it. Enough trying to play him in different roles.
 
Hopefully never see him as cb in a back 4 again, not composed enough in possession and doesn't understand the defensive role. RB or nothing.
 
It reminded me of watching Micah at centre half tonight, completely lost positionally and on the ball he wasnt much better.
