Fernando has turned it around

Tonight isn't the time to say wherever he's improving or not. We played one of the poorest teams in the competition who were a couple of yards short of full fitness. Sunday will be a test for him. They're white as well but I imagine they will press us a lot more than Kiev.

Poor opposition but it would be unfair not to give him the credit his performance deserved.He put in some good challenges and made some great interceptions,i thought his reading of the game and situations was much improved,his fitness looks much better of late too.
Well done from me.

He played well against Norwich. He's done his job well at recycling possession.

One of his better games but still a ridiculously limited footballer.
It's almost comical how professional footballers feels it necessary to give him a five yard square pass for fear his passing ability is not advanced for anything more complex.
Adds to the pedestrian football, the lack of options and invention.

Correction. He defended well.Played well again tonight.
He still can't pass forward, Still can't drive forward into space.
Nowhere near good enough to take the club forward to where our owners want us to be.

I take it you meant 'shite'?

Turned it around? Ffs he looks average even against shite like that lot tonight. No pace, no threat at all offensively and limited to sideways passing!
I doubt he was instructed to offer a threat offensively tonight.
a) it's not his game
b) there was no need to
He's not great, but it's akin to slagging off Aguero's defensive ability.

Man of the match for me tonight. The work he does in tandem with Fernandinho is the reason we aren't cut apart in Europe like we are in the PL. Quite why we don't play that way in the league I didn't know.
