Horrible positioning costs us again but everyone will suck him off because he managed to snuff out a long ball to Vinicius a couple of times.
I expect our scouts to be looking for the next for Walker for the past 3 years
Hopefully they get it right
pahaha.Horrible positioning costs us again but everyone will suck him off because he managed to snuff out a long ball to Vinicius a couple of times.
pahaha.
The ball should have been dealt with a long time before it got anywhere near Walker.
As for snuffing out the long ball, yeah its a fucking good job he did or we would have been embarassed on the counter several times and might have been sat here today having been knocked out 3-0.
I agree. But when the danger was coming he should have concentrated on his positioning instead of still waving his arm in the air for an offside that he wasn't going to get.pahaha.

Irrelevant about the back 4 which actually was in a decent line when the ball is in the air.He was 2 yards ahead of the rest of the back 4 despite being able to see across it, then lost Rodrygo in the box anyway. He also kills our build up from the back because he's crap on the ball and always plays a negative pass that puts his other defenders under pressure.
I'll argue this till I'm blue in the face, he's been a complete liability for 2 years. Akanji can do everything he can do defensively at right back and Rico is miles better going forward.
But Gary Neville keeps telling me he's the best fullback in the world so what the fuck do I know!
This is my point. Yes, he played exceptionally well AFTER his horrible marking, which cost a goal, but he often makes these mental errors. Every Champions League bar, the one we won, I can recall a back-breaking mistake from him. When you factor in how little he contributes to our attack on top of it, I'd just stick with Lewis/Akanji.Horrible positioning costs us again but everyone will suck him off because he managed to snuff out a long ball to Vinicius a couple of times.
