3 | Rúben Dias - 2021/22 Performances

Dias Stones is better than Dias Laporte on every level. Was before tonight.

The common theme there is to play Stones.

Worst game for us that. He looked completely disjointed from everyone around him.

 

[Vester]

Yeah I agree, had the worst game of his City career tonight. Hopefully he will come back stronger!

 

[Scottyboi]

Completely outclassed by a world class centre forward tonight.

 

[Dirty Harry]

He looks really uncomfortable at times on that right hand side.

 

[Keeper!]

Lack of pace? easily exposed at times.

Lack of pace? easily exposed at times.

I think it’s more than just that mate, seems much more indecisive/hesitant and. I’ve noticed anything going just over his head or behind him and he has to turn and try and make contact or control it he really struggles.

I guess some players are naturally more comfortable playing slightly from the left or the right, even if it’s a matter of 10/20 yards or so, Laporte is similar on the right (worse actually the few times I’ve seen him having to play there).

 

[Damanino]

Not as commanding this season as he was last season. not sure why, last season he was really dominant and he made the defence very strong. this season to be hones i dont feel too much difference between Laporte, Dias, Stones. All of them had iffy games, bu generally good ones.

defensive stats are still great club level.

 

[lasereyes]

Played like Otamendi without the pace. Worst of the back 4 I'd say

May be the first time I have ever seen these two used in the same sentence

So we have discovered he is not the finished article. Which central defender is at 24? Kompany certainly was not. If anything, his sporadic errors this year makes even more incredible what he did last year. He seems a studious, intelligent chap so I am sure he will go back to basics and recover his poise. Can't believe some of the comments here - hero to zero based on a couple of poor games - jeez.
