I never hate on any of our players I don’t get the need to be hatting I follow my team through good and bad, but what I don’t understand is I know he’s a lot younger and maybe does have time to grow but is he as good as or better than Laporte? I think we’ve kinda of gone side ways or down with this signing, but hopefully he will come good and prove me wrong, also I think ake is proven and should be starting in front of him for now
 
I like him a lot, he’s tenacious and really good on the ball with both feet - he’s just a bit inconsistent defensively (understandable given his age) which isn’t ideal when we can’t keep a clean sheet.

A bit different to Ake who I’m a huge fan of, since you know exactly what you’re going to get from him - Gvardiol will be a great signing for us in time, just needs to be given time given his age and the fact it’s his first season.

How long will this go ? Just bcoz he is in first season doesn't mean he makes basic mistakes.a lot of players in different teams hit the ground running or show amole quality in first season. People were quick to call him rolls Royce of a defender. He will eventually come good but doesn't he escapes criticism. He messed up against Chelsea too

Taken off and Ake fucked up for the 3rd goal, as did walker. Dias fucking shite across the last 5 games.

He's 5 months in you fuckin melt.

Far too bleedin’ much …. his lack of pace for his age is a big worry.

he’s never gonna have kyle walker’s speed, never ever. you might as well start a petition to have him sold in january.
 
How does a 6'1 LB only win 50% of his aerial duels?... Walker and Ake at around 75%, and both are smaller.
Also he rarely stops crosses and leaves a lot of space behind him, gets sucked in and doesn't have the pace to recover.
Lad has potential to be as good as say Laporte(at cb)..But as a LB I'm not seeing it.
Not a good look as a defender when you're hauled off in an attempt to maintain the lead.
I want to see him centrally, where has Pep's hard on for a left footer sweeping the ball out wide gone?
 
21 years old playing in a new league, not playing in his preferred position. Sometimes people do surprise you how quick they are to give up on them.
 
If we wanted someone to play LB we should have signed a LB. His passing is really good although the lack of pace is a worry. Think we need to see him playing CB.
