Diabolical
They had a week's rest. He has had a good game like not long ago too.I don't want to make excuse for him but 56 matches this year exclusive internationals. He clearly needs a break from football.
Yeah, just two thirds of the away games every season.Awful....bit at least his bad performances are few and far between
Then he shouldn't fecking play or should have been subbed.It's one of the first times where I will make an excuse for his performance. He seemed cooked from kickoff, to me he is either genuinely tired or ill.
Yeah it's Bruno who decides the line upThen he shouldn't fecking play or should have been subbed.
This "oh he's an iron man he never misses a minute" bullshit isn't anything to write home about when he's cooked physically for 10 of those matches a year and plays like a Sunday leaguer. Performances like today will genuinely cost us at times over the course of a season.
You are getting yourself worked up out of an assumption.Then he shouldn't fecking play or should have been subbed.

I was worked up all matchYou are getting yourself worked up out of an assumption.![]()
I generally don't like that "excuse" but today on several occasions he looked like pensioner. Especially during that pretend counter attack, it took him 5 minutes to sprint 45 meters.I was worked up all match
But seriously it's frustrating that I have to hear so much about how much of an iron horse Bruno is, and that he never wants to be subbed, but then we have to watch that same level of performance 10 times a year where he can't complete simple passes while everyone afterwards chalks it up to him being tired. I don't care how much he'll bitch about it, he needs to be subbed/rested for his own good at times.
I about threw something at the tele when we were trying to see out the game, he gets the ball in space around the half way line, and just dribbles in a circle without passing before losing it again.I generally don't like that "excuse" but today on several occasions he looked like pensioner.

With the amount he has played that would hardly be surprising.It's one of the first times where I will make an excuse for his performance. He seemed cooked from kickoff, to me he is either genuinely tired or ill.
No surprise there and it's why it's so important we strengthen in the summer so he doesn't have to play every single game.He's played the most minutes out all players in Euoropean football this season so it's not really a surprise that he's feeling fatigued and struggling a bit at this point.

In fairness, he has looked a lot better the whole season; it must be allowed to have a bad day at work. He did his job defensively, but otherwise, so off target, if he were to pick his nose, I'd be worried he'd hurt his eye.He plays every minute of every game with a lightweight Eriksen behind him and very poor attackers to pick out. The overall movement is very bad.
He will look better with better players around him.
This for Bruno. He is one player I give the benefit of doubt because he has been a warrior for us this season, every single game he is there. Every single game.I don't want to make excuse for him but 56 matches this year exclusive internationals. He clearly needs a break from football.
