There's that cracking decision making from him again. You're not telling me his brain switches to dumbass when he gets put at LB. He's not good enough

Risky defending and offering feck all support to Martial. Not a great start.
The second part seems to be an instruction from Mourinho tbf. Darmian offers no support either when he plays and Mourinho said he does what he wants from his LB.

Yeah you're right - I forgot that trait of Mourinho. That said, that means he has full focus on his defensive duties and he still can't do that right. :lol:

Yeah, he's been really poor so far. He just always looks more nervy there than at CB.

He's been poor so far and even if he's meant to sit deep - Blind could offer so much more (crosses from deep).

He's dived into and lost a challenge once again, shambolic display tonight.

The right is so open. Pogba is not closing as much down as Herrera and Martial does nothing defensively.

Fellaini-esque positioning, awful 1 on 1 and what's with the pressing? It can be that it's Mourinho's instructions but he shouldn't fecking be pressing that high up the pitch (!!) centrally, leaving gaps of space behind.

Doesn't know how to play a left back and always drifts to the LCB zone while defending

Does know he's playing lb?

Or is he going to let them cross balls for fun.

Abysmal at left back. Has to come off or Southampton will continue to do us down our left.

Between him, Martial, and Pogba, our left flank basically has no defense.

He needs to play CB and either Bailly or Smalling need to be on the bench. Awful communication all game long between the two center backs and Rojo keeps letting the wide man get the ball freely behind the defense.

He's really not a LB is he? Will Jose ever stop playing him there?

He's lost several one vs ones, on a performance like this it wouldnt have mattered if he was LB or CB, its a lack of concentration and application.

How does this guy and Darmian start for us when Blind and Shaw are available? I can't imagine how they could be any worse.

Surely there was already enough evidence to suggest that he's horrendous at LB?

Absolutely shocking performance. He was left three times for dead and was to be blamed for the goal too. Blind needs to replace him ASAP.
