Well, I suppose we're all entitled to an opinion. I can't quite fathom how you consider he played well.

I thought he was absolutely terrible. I said on another post he's shot. Probably as bad an individual performance from any player this season, and that's saying something.

I have no idea why an experienced international defender would do what he did for their first goal. The danger wasn't Mitrovic, O'Shea had stood him up. The danger was his man who he let go and eventually scored. I'm getting fed up of constantly conceding goals because our players are so brainless. It was fairly simple just to track his runner, the player who he was up against - instead he was ball watching.

He got caught out again 5 minutes later when they hit the post, then gave the ball away in a bad area for another chance to Fulham. He was a complete liability. As he was against Man City.

And I don't care if it was his 100th or 400th game. If he plays poorly, we are entitled to criticise him.

I would be happy for Big Sam to put anyone else at left back there instead of him v Sheff Utd. Seriously. I'd rather see Grant play left back.
