I'm getting really tired of Kyle Walker. He is not an intelligent defender, and it's very clear. Laporte and Stones are smart, not so sure about Mendy (yet). But Walker is just like a fast and angry pitbull and never thinks before he acts. The things he is missing:
• Ball controll. Everytime he uses his pace on the flanks, he always loses the ball and gets it too far away from his feet. Every f-ng time.
• Passing: everytime he is trying to pass to the strikers or overall attempting a key pass, it's always a miss leading to a counterattack.
• Positioning: he is often out of position.
• Defending: comparing him to Laporte is a joke. He can't clear the balls, he barely ever intercepts the ball, he is way too passive (like the first goal from Crystal yesterday) and he is usually pretty easy to beat.
• Crossing. For a fullback, you need to be able to cross the ball. This guy can't. Maybe 2 out of 10 are really good crosses. The rest are either too low, too high, too hard. I've seen so many fullbacks better than him at crossing. Alexander-Arnold, Alonso, Robertson, Trippier. Like, how hard can it be?
I really think Pep should start using Danilo more, because he is quality. Kyle is just reckless and arrogant. He has his speed, but what else, seriously? He is the weakest link in our team, hands down.
