Remind me which one of the defensive fuck ups was on him in that game?

Which of the 3 goals was his fault?

I mean I'm all for agreeing with you but there has to be some evidence before we crucify the guy!
They didn’t overrun us in midfield until he was dropped to one of the 6s.

Whilst none of the goals was because of him, the huge whole where our midfield was changed their approach and upped their confidence.

I'm not sure you watched the game pal. They didn't overrun us at any point, they got a major slice of fortune with a massive fuck up in defence gifting them a goal, second was an overhit cross which they got a huge slice of luck with combined with some level of goalkeeping error and the last goal was a great through ball that our defence didn't bother to track the runners for and forced our keeper into kamikaze action.

They took confidence from our own defensive errors, they didn't suddenly start dominating once Nunes dropped in as the 6, you've created a link to 2 things that had no credible link. You may aswell blame James Mcatee's introduction to the game as the cause of our collapse, there's about the same level of credibility to that claim as there is laying any at Nunes.

Eugh pointless shitty stats, can't stand them. Mo Salah lost possesion 11 times.

He's been a shining light in the dross the last few weeks, talk about scapegoat

Gvardiol passing the ball to their players doesn't mean they overran our midfield.

Had we had Rodri, Bernardo and Gundogan in midfield for the last 15 mins, they would have made 300 passes between them and we’d have won the game 5-0.

As it was, we took Gundogan off and only had Bernardo who can control a game.

Sure, there were defensive fuck ups, but we had no midfield in the last 15 minutes and no control.

Couple that with the fuckups and we had the perfect storm for a collapse.

My guess is that we will never see Nunes used as a 6 again. It was Kalvin-vs Southampton-esque.

He’ll be used as a winger and an occasional 8.

His performance and lack of desire / get his sleeves rolled up was embarassing
 
Nunes has most assists so far, while playing far fewer minutes than other attacking and midfield players. He's done reasonably well, having made 8 goal contributions, more than both Foden and Grealish (combined?).
