#22 | Benjamin Mendy - 2020/21 Performances

[kaz7]

Blasting in aimless crosses still, no defending to do , difficult to get any impression

 

[itisrising]

The lack of variation on his crosses is so frustrating.

 

[waspish]

Let’s hope his knee doesn’t flare up again and we don’t see him for about 2 months.

 

[Neville Kneville]

Feet like the wrong Golf clubs.

Would you rather he floated one in for the inevitable single player we will have in the box to compete against the 6 defenders surrounding him only for the keeper to claim with ease anyway?

His crossing is erratic at times which includes overhitting them when more finesse would be a better bet but he generally puts in a number of good balls per game that should be pounced upon but never are.

Mendy was good tonight, all threat down the left ended when zinchenko replaced him.

Just blasting it when we dont play that way seems a bit pointless to me , he is obviously not going to get any better at that , i would sell him

Otherwise known as ‘doing a Kolarov’

 

[Ric]

Thought he played quite well tonight. Hopefully he can get a run of games under his belt now.

 

[mccity]

He obviously could do with controlling it a tad better, but the reason he blasts it is to ensure that it gets into the middle and more difficult to defend. His crosses, high or low, almost always beat the first man. Which is something most of our other players struggle with unless they overhit it.

It's worth noting that it's his first game back in a while. Yes we've been here before 100 times but it's still true.

 

[Brewster's millions]

He did play better today but he has a habit of looking alright for a few games, playing well for a couple and then having an absolute nightmare.

I do hope he succeeds though as I do think he tries when he plays.
