With Lindelof - who is now regarded as not that far off world class defenders, who in turn have turned to shite because of one game - what people may want to ask themselves is do they trust him next to another relatively weak centre back?
I remember Bailly and Lindelof as a pairing. They needed Fellaini to hold their hands against physical teams. I could handle seeing Maguire with either of them, but them as a pairing is asking for trouble.
Also, interesting points @Ekeke regarding AWB's defensive covering. It may have been sacrificed to a degree since the re-start, to get him further up the pitch, but we were afforded that too with having a better ball playing first XI that wasn't set up negatively (as before) and soaking up as much pressure.
