Not good.

His passing is awful and is like a headless chicken at times.

He needs a calming influence.
 
Not sure if he's the problem or it's Pep who hasn't got a clue how to set up a defence.
 
Good tackler, keen to defend, good in the air when not challenged.

No pace, no ability to read the game, no sense of danger, hopeless in the air when challenged.

Decent 4th choice cb, never anything more. Kompany, not match fit, is twice the player he will ever be.

We can & probably will win stuff with him & Kolarov involved & they will probably play well again in the future, but we really should be looking to replace both with top quality next season

He needs to stop diving. It's pretty pathetic tbh.

He does, but it was a foul on him by Ibrahimovic. But, he put himself in a position, as he always does, where if he doesn't win the ball, he is taken out of the game with one touch.

It's not possible to win every ball & he plays as if it is. Kamikaze defending all the time.

Exactly. He's a strikers wet dream. A defender that sells himself so easily and if they get the first touch they leave him behind on the ground and have a chance to score.
