On top of the league
Blind is just not fast enough to be a top club defender. He's got his moments when he's doing the correct things and he's also quite creative on his day. But he should never ever be in the plans for the future. Transition player.

Daydreaming by playing Antonio onside and then has nerve to put hand up for offside.

Responsible for another goal conceded. I've said it before and I'll say it again. He's good in one on ones but tends to feck up positionally, surprisingly.

Really needs to work on that "keeping the defensive line" thing. Even Valencia has learned how to do it more often than not.

Useless. You can get all the fancy stats you want.

He is a useless CB.

:lol:

Did he lose his man at that freekick? When Van Gaal retires in that villa in Portugal, Blind should follow him and play centre back for the local Sunday team there.

Almost rather he goes than Van Gaal at this point. Hopeless player who has no business being in this side.

You could make an argument that he is the ultimate embodiment of Van Gaal's ineptitude.

He could score a hat-trick now and still get a 1 in the ratings from me. I could have played better than him today.

Haven't seen such a bottle job since Jonny Evans fecked us against Everton and City.

It's Van Gaal's fault too, such a completely pointless decision to make him a full time centre half. His build up play hasn't helped our creativity this season and defensively he's so very mediocre.

My wit's end
It depends on whether you want to prioritise passing ability or defensive ability in your centreback. If it's the the latter, he's well below average for the PL.

He'd be found out in any league as CB including Sunday league.

He's surpassed his shocking performance earlier on in the season. One of the worst defensive performances you'll ever witness.

Feck off Blind. And some here thought he is better than Smalling.

Watford is the one you're thinking of. That was probably more of his norm, honestly, because it was beside an inexperienced Fosu-Mensah who was doing the clean-up for him.

I suppose it's fitting that in the end, he's the one who cost Van Gaal his precious top four finish.

Terrible terrible performance, cost us 2 goals. Very naive of LvG to play him against a team like West ham especially that Fellaini is out.

He's not abysmal he's just short.

How can anybody attach blame when a big strong centre back beats him in the air.
He was largely at fault for all three goals.

Was height a factor when he played Antonio onside for the equalizer?
