Off day today. Everyone has them. He's built a lot of credit through the season, so not gonna go crazy over this bad game.

He was shocking but it happens, no big deal if he keeps up his regular performance.

Aye, he was really poor today but he didn't cost us. All the stuff about Smalling's distribution is basically pointless when Lindelof takes his position and does nothing with the ball either, people are seriously overrating importance of distribution from the back. It's good thing to have defenders who know to play with the ball, but it's really not that crucial.

The old Lindelof resurfaced today. Very poor and hopefully just a one off.

Shocking performance. Amazing he didn't cost us a goal given how many errors he made.

That was the Lindelof of last season. You can excuse him a poor performance when he’s been good most of the season.

Was poor today. Surprisingly it was in the air that he kept losing and not to the pace of the strikers. Lacked composure as well. Lets hope this is just a one off.

Victor I love you but you went back into your shell today.
During the WC, a Swedish football journalist revealed that an unnamed player in Sweden’s WC squad has a habit of throwing up before games out of sheer nervousness.

I’m starting to think that player was Lindelöf.

Shocking today, he was channeling his last season's self. For all his good and great performances recently, he always seems like a player who's got a mistake in him.

Very bad today. Looked like he was scared of the ball in the air. Still no matter he's been very good all season.

It wasn't pace that did him, it was his own indecisiveness. Lost count of the number of times he let a ball bounce.
Can only assume he was struggling with the wind and rain more than everyone else. Very bad game for him though, no excuses. Hopefully this won't hurt his development.

Arsenal used a DeLorean and went and got Lindelof from last season and switched him with this Victor, worst game he's had this season.

Yes I know, just think he was trying to adjust his starting position constantly as he was aware of their forwards pace.

Is Lindelof a good defender who has a few bad games or is he a poor defender who has the odd good game?

Turned into the old Lindelof, but it happens and hopefully it doesn't have an effect on him going forward.

Didn't cost us the game. About the only positive to take from that performance. No, he played decent except for some bad timing. Clearly had an off day.

Looked like his old self today, but it was a bad day at the office for everyone. Not judging him based on that but it was awful.

I can only recall that one horribly misjudgment of a bouncing ball; otherwise didn't notice him too much.

Bad game from him. Too many exposed through balls and runners that got straight at him early, the midfield was wide open.

Lindelof seems like a moody player who's displays tend to match the teams overall confidence and form . He's only really impressed when the goings been good. Not taking anything away from him as he's improved massively, but im yet to see him perform well or with the same confidence when the team is struggling in other areas on the pitch. PSG was similar.
