24 | Joško Gvardiol - 2023/24

[Lavinda Past]

Still not a fucking left back.

Get the lad in his proper position!

I thought he was excellent. Not seeing the criticism at all. He's 21 learning a new position in a new team, anybody expecting perfection is mental.

Should have just finally bought a decent left back. Hopefully turns into a top centre half down the line but currently we’re we’ll set for centre backs.

i was hoping he’d play cb today when i saw both him and ake in the starting xi.

seeing how high up the pitch he was today, i can only assume that pep decided to focus on the ball playing part and forget about the cb part of the ball playing cb he wanted.

a loss/draw today and we’d have 10 pages of gvardiol’s garbage/useless/needs a slap in the face again.

yes, currently as in both ake and stones are fit at the same time. how often is that?

Thought he did well today

All about opinions , I thought he was very poor on the ball , bad defending to let his man get the cross in for the goal - needs to played at centre half as he definitely isn’t a left full back

I just think he was better today than he has previously been. Not a high bar, granted, but he looked more confident/comfortable.

I think there's a little too much whining about a player who played well AT leftback.

Look forward to more great performances.

How? Genuinely interested what you think he was doing wrong or what he wasnt doing to give you that opinion?

I thought he was probably the best forward passer on the pitch first half. Certainly the best in the backline by a mile. Saw some lovely passing angles to avoid the predictable pass that often broke lines a rarity especially in our side in that he will gladly use his weaker foot when the angle dictates.
