This guy is so ineffective it's not true, I can remember about two games this season where he's played ok, but they were when the team was on fire, still he never made that much of a contribution to the result. He just does not cut it at this level. So I ask why, why the hell is he starting so many games? What hold does he have over Pellegrini?
Tonight he was utterly useless, I genuinely believe players only pass out to him as a pass of last resort when there are no other options available.
Whilst we can't blame him entirely for tonight's defeat, I think he contributed massively to their goal.
When Yaya was bursting through, he should have peeled out to the right, taken a defender with him and given Yaya both space and an option for a pass.... Instead of that, what does he do? He closes in on Yaya, taking a defender in with him - pressurised Yaya into shooting quickly and losing posession. The outcome being Juve break and score.
Sorry, he has to go. He is NOT good enough to play in this team. Whilst no one played particularly well this evening, Navas may as well have not been on the pitch for what his net contribution was.
