He’s a terrible defender nearly all the time. He makes errors all the time, big and small.

Geez, forgot that Rashford came out. We need to get the ball to the lad.
Matic
Matic and Fred have no business starting PL games for us. We'll get bulldozed in CM.
Nice touch from him but yeah, lucky deflection.
You are right. Maybe we coach it into them, we just have such a bunch of misfits at CB after years of great players.
Feck,these guys with the heavy touches.
Joker....
Lingard cant create shit as 10
No rhythm to this half from us at all, the drop in quality is there for everyone to see.
Matic just reminds me of Mourinho at this point. Hopefully he only plays in cup games. Not a chance unfortunately.
You're joking if you think Bailly's defending style is anything close to normal.
This lineup compared to our first half side is like night and day. Presumably because the midfield stinks
As a squad member.
Matic is done at this level.
He started off here very well but hasn't really progressed since the first few games. It doesn't help that he keeps getting moved around.
Good work from Gomes there.
He's an atrocious defender. Young is a better defender than him. I was ridiculed for saying that last season but I stick by it.
Well my TV just cut out thanks to a thunder storm.
Took too long to make a decision there Gomez.
Ole's got to show faith in the youth now, can't be another season of static Matic stinking it up.
2nd half squad is pretty disjointed tbh, pretty bad.
By the looks of it, you got the best of the 2 halves already. Or not....
If.....I could offer a few 'ifs' about lots of things
Wan-Bissaka is lightyears ahead of him
Skipp’s 18 but has the hairline of a 43 year old
Lingard as a creative midfield force when Pogba is off. We all see it. The board and Ole seem to be blind to it.
Like flogging a dead horse but our midfield is terrible in relation to the best teams.

the midfield and defense has been awful this half
Wow Matic has regressed even further since last season. Passenger. He’s been absolutely terrible.
Shaw needs some good competition.
One thing is it is showing who are his best players.
If only Smalling played this half. Would get some amazing comments. Morons the lot of you. Matic has zero to do with everyone being bad.
Guysh, believe in zer Philosophy! The boysh will be horny for the start of the champagne and minch pies.
We won't be in contention for any silverware if we have to rely on Nemanja Static to start 30-40 games this season...
He's finished as a PL level starter

What the heck was Matic doing for the goal? I am shocked that Ole cannot see how poor he has been and does not think of replacing him?
This second half team is a shambles.
Never got organized, never got going.
Spurs will likely go on to win this.
Reality check about squad depth??????

Yep.The midfield in the first half is levels above this one, and even then you can question the quality of that one.
Shaw looking a bit rusty.
