I think he's looked good tonight. Some fantastic deliveries and always looking to get involved. Should take on Monreal more though, he'd have the beating of him for pace easily.
I think the opposite in fairnessBlaming Di Maria and not Smalling not Valencia for their goal reeks of someone who's never played a match in their life.
Twice dispossessed and one unsuccessful touch according to the stats. Can't say I noticed him losing it too often, a lot less then in recent weeks. His attacking play has been really good IMO. The ball for the cross was brilliant especially.Great cross. Performance is a bit meh. How many fecking times has he lost possession needlessly?
True, although his offensive game has been quite good overall.His tracking back has been non existent today.
Smalling sucked out of position in the build up and doesn't get back in, Valencia shitting his pants and panicking jumping into tackles in the middle ... 2 of the back 4 completely out of position. I agree he could have made an effort to get back in, but wouldn't have made a difference by time the ball was released.I think the opposite in fairness
He was standing there staring at monreal
They're all to blame. Di Maria didn't bother to do anything and feck knows where Smalling was going.Blaming Di Maria and not Smalling not Valencia for their goal reeks of someone who's never played a match in their life.
Yep, multiple mistakes at the same exact moment.They're all to blame. Di Maria didn't bother to do anything and feck knows where Smalling was going.
Alright so far for me, the usual bits of brilliance and the other usual bits of pure awful. Needs to use his right foot and he should have squared that once chance for Wayne instead of trying to shoot. He still doesn't seem to realize he has a fullback behind him to offer support.
I guess you didn't see him just stand there and watch Monreal scoreBlaming Di Maria and not Smalling not Valencia for their goal reeks of someone who's never played a match in their life.
This.He's a player you have in your team for his phenomenal delivery and the absurd amount of chances he creates. Not his possession stat ratio.

Not cut out for the PL long term I suspect. He's been hiding and he'll be away if he gets half a chance in the summer.He doesn't like physical contact I reckon. Afraid of 50/50.
We might consider selling him if any good winger is available.Not cut out for the PL long term I suspect. He's been hiding and he'll be away if he gets half a chance in the summer.
Strange game to say this, probably been one of our better players today.Not cut out for the PL long term I suspect. He's been hiding and he'll be away if he gets half a chance in the summer.
And one of our worst over the last 3 months.Strange game to say this, probably been one of our better players today.
Shit? What are you talking about, He was our most creative outlet in the first half.Not only is he fecking shit, he's also a serial diver and (apparently) a clueless fecking idiot. He's always looked utterly thick like there's nothing between his ears - this just confirms it.
That was stupid but he was having a good game. I'm not a blind to idiocy, I support him because he's our player instead of jumping on his back to criticise every second.Can't wait to hear @bosnian_red defend the absolute moron. Joke of a second half from him, culminating in that. Well done Angel, you've done yourself proud.
Bit of a contradiction to criticise people for slagging off Di Maria before blaming a player for the result surely?That was stupid but he was having a good game. I'm not a blind to idiocy, I support him because he's our player instead of jumping on his back to criticise every second.
Valencia's the one who cost us today anyways imo
