Has anyone (who saw the whole match) pointed out how poor Kompany and Lescott were or are they immune from criticism normally reserved for Demichelis?
Not sure whether Komps gave the ball away 12 or 15 times, each of which could've led to a goal in the PL.
I'll hope it was just carelessness.
You must have saw a different game to the rest of us
My point exactly. If Demichelis had been caught in possession so much there would be hell to pay. It was at least a dozen but folk just blot it from the consciousness because 'oh well Vinnie's a good player'.
He is, no doubt, but he's getting accident prone - twice at Southampton, loads last night.
Demi is very good on the ball and gets lots of support. That said, Leicester may have played a different game last night knowing Demi likes to rush out of defence or hold back and play everyone on side.
It made sense to play our best central defenders last night who were going to get stuck in against an in form Leicester.
