Benjamin Mendy - 2019/20 Performances

[Trojan1962]

I think the injuries have caused him to lose some pace, crucial for his game

I thought he played ok in the first half, then like most of the team bobbins in the second.

 

[bondsman]

Reminds me of Maicon at city. No pace clumsy and a defensive liability. Salah will rinse him

 

[meeesh]

A game of two halves tonight,great and composed first half,then like a league two player in second half,not consistent enough

He did well against him last year. Its either him, angelino or cancelo at left back all are bad options but i think mendy is the best out of the three options

He did look like he was lumbering about in that second half, His injuries have taken alot from him, looks like he is carrying a bit too much timber for me.

I hope he comes good because he is clearly a good lad maybe not your run of the mill personality, lets hope he avoids any further injury knock back and pushes on to a whole better level than he is showing now.

He looked like he was in great shape earlier in the season wonder what happened

 

[Metalartin]

Probably best to give him a full season before making too many conclusions, he's missed a lot of football.

He was injured for a good while, maybe there is a bit of fatigue after all the rehab and so on.

Clearly the lad is a bit of a card to say the least so maybe he is not as diligent in what he does as some of the others.

Whatever the reason I think he deserves more time to get back to his best.

This current Mendy, in this current City could be a problem. He seems to have lost his pace (understandable) and he is barely getting forward. So we are only really asking him to defend these days and defending has always been the weakest part of his game. I wouldn’t blame him for their goal tonight but I would ask what the fuck he was doing at the far post.

He was the only player who could see everything that was happening for their goal, including the goal scorer coming in unmarked. For some reason he backed off instead of moving in to challenge. Not saying he would have stopped him from scoring but it would have made it that more difficult.
Cancelo was out of position for their goal resulting in Otto covering on the right, he didn’t get close enough to stop the cross but I think Mendy could have reacted better
