Sorry but my take on the player is that he has been well covered by deep lying midfielders. The ball is like a hot potato at his feet and he always passes sideways to Schar or Tripps. On a one one one he backs off all the time yes it was Tripps fault for losing possession but Lascelles effort as stopping the player was pitiful

In my eyes he is a terrible defender can’t wait for Botman to get fit and get him back on the bench.
I take your points, and pace has always been an issue, I get it. But terrible is too strong a word I reckon - we are not getting a better bench player than him at this poiint. I think he has made the best of what tools he has and surpassed my expectations this last load of games beung dropped in cold. And he has chipped in with goals FFS.
