Rodri I’d say

100% agree. Probably the greatest player to get away from us in the last 10 years.Balked at the price he’s easily worth £100 mil in today’s market and above big mistake

I’m sick of this constant left back issues. It’s been a problem for us for fukcing years. We (Pep and his crew) has to decide once and for all: will Mendy ever be the same? The only way of knowing is to play him week in, week out.
Mendy is not the answer unless we think players that can do none of the basics well is the answer.
He is an appalling player.
Fucking angry having watched his performance today.

Thinking back we have at times fielded a side with a core of 5 or 6 world class quality players .Vinnie ,Zaba,Kun,David,Yaya,Fern,KdB. Then we had Sane & Sterling on the verges of breaking into that category. That core has gone or is well past its sell by date and what have got left that is 'world class' ?. I'd say KDB alone. Sterling at times. The rest are good if we restore a core of world class players around them. Huge re-building job not of good players we need great players.

But he makes the same mistakes week after week, crossing at defenders, poor passing and no bite in the challenge. His attempt at stopping Kanye shooting last week was abysmal after doing the hard bit and getting thereI’m sick of this constant left back issues. It’s been a problem for us for fukcing years.

It also speaks volumes for the views Pep must have on Angelino because he can’t be watching Mendy in these games and seeing anything other than a player who is simply not good enough. Whether that is injuries or what I don’t know. He can’t defend and he has forgotten or isn’t being allowed to attack. He offers zero to the side other than a body. It’s baffling he keeps getting picked.
I think they will be but when we realised vinny was going maybe we could have put Rodri on the back burner for a season and spent our budget on a centre half and left back . Cancelo will be good aswell given time . I don’t think Jesus is good enough to be our main striker tbh either. I think we have a massive rebuild coming for pep to look atAnd I’m not sure the players we have brought in, Cancelo and Rodri, are really all that, are you ?

I'm surprised its taken you this long ;-) He's made me fume on numerous occasions, there are times when he doesn't he even look like a footballer, and then he'll do something great, and you wonder if he meant it or was it just luck ?Mendy is not the answer unless we think players that can do none of the basics well is the answer.

Remember he had two major injuries and only a few month in total of actually playing for the club. Yes if he stays injury free and continue like this in April/May, then I’m out of excuses. But I want one full season of the guy. It’s hard to judge a player without it, even if I think he absolutely stinks at the moment.
