As a defender he will always be a headless chicken.
But he has much quality in the opponent box.
I prefer a CB as CB though.
(As much as I prefer a keeper as keeper, not a passer.)

that was an incredibly simply goal line clearance and not being able to clear it is nothing short of embarrassing
Well what do you expect ? embarassing defending is what we do now on a regular basis, you can expect it from anyone too, we're a meme now.

Here in the US, the announcers said “there is not an awful lot Gvardiol can do there, he’s off balance.” I know we don’t know anything about football, but I think it was Lee Dixon. Truly, I don’t know how Dias and Nunes aren’t getting some slack here. They’re further ahead and basically stop and ball watch.

I think his passive defensive awareness doesn't suit Pep's high-line tactics. He would do better in a more traditional or static defensive setup under other managers, but sadly, he's not a good fit for Pep's style, which requires more proactive defending.
Well he's been doing that for the past month and a half, either he's lost all confidence or he isn't the defender we all thought he was, I'm hoping it's just a confidence issue, at least he has an eye for goal which of course means he has to play every single game since every fucker on this team except Haaland can't hit a barn door.
