You're right A-man, and there definitely needs to be a little perspective applied here, because its very easy to just reach the conclusion that the cafe always needs something to moan about.
You posted the record in big games. Those are champions league level opponents and the defence have not embarrassed themselves. Quite the contrary in fact.
Also the fact that we are currently enjoying a 16 match unbeaten run during which we have conceded the grand total of 6 goals, and of those 6 goals one was a bad error from De Gea against Everton and another was the farcical penalty conceded yesterday. Neither of those goals can be used as evidence of a dodgy defence, so let's call in 4 goals in 16 games.
Just want to repeat that. 4 goals in 16 games.
Its not a statistic that anyone would ever look and reach the conclusion that the defence needs an overhaul, is it?
Thats the problem with the cafe these days. Is there a better centre back than Lindelof in the world that we could buy? Absolutely yes. Should we always be looking to improve the team? Absolutely yes. Let's keep it in perspective though, and judge these defenders on how many goals they are conceding. We come across as a very spoilt and entitled set of supporters when we go to the extremes that we do just to make a point.
