Iv never been a fan of Lindelof and never will be I just dont think he`s good enough but its obvious that he improves when not partnered with that useless oaf Harold which is better than nothing until they both get moved on. He's definitely not a top level CB but performances playing next to Maguire and playing next to literally anyone else are worlds apart. Hes a decent cover CB. While Maguire may have the odd decent game he drags everyone else's down. De Gea goes to shit because he's on edge so do our fullbacks because they have to come out of position to cover him. Again I will never understand how the fuck he is a professional footballer. De Gea should never be playing a short ball out to Harold no matter how much he is wanting the ball, Harold will still get games this season unfortunately because of injury but De Gea has to realise what he can and cannot do.

He was at fault aswell but any other CB deals with that. Especially if they call for it. Not excusing Dave but with Maguire it happens nearly every week. This playing out from the back I hate it anyway, we are shit at it so need to cut it out. Putting the keeper under pressure will result in more of that which we don't need.

Agree he was at fault too, even yesterday DeGea was still playing some short balls out and yes we are shit at it, teams press now knowing it, we have to learn.

Different ‘keeper and different CBs and the problem goes away…

Don Carlo has had Pep’s number the last twice they’ve met in CL semi finals. He can do it again. Fucking Halaand is the difference

He had it wrapped in the touchline basically as soon as he came off. Ligaments maybe.
Not ideal.

Say what you want about our decline the last month or so but fuck me we’ve not caught a break with injuries and suspensions. No wonder everything has started to catch up with us.

Apparently he rolled his ankle… Strapped and iced… Depending on the extent of damage he could still be ready for Thursday…
