I know there is a serious lack of confidence throughout the team at the moment but this guy is a liability. Either passes back or if actually decides to pass forward gives it away time after time after time.... I'm Nervous every time he's on the ball. Shocking! Or decides to shoot! Hopefully the back line will soon be: Fosu-Mensah, Dann, Sakho, Schlupp, With Luka at DM.

Yeah think the poor bloke has had his time.......sorry Wardy,but time for you to take a back seat for awhile,so lets get Sakho fit and have a back four of.... ..Fose-Mensah....Sakho (c)....Tomkins....PVA.. with a midfield three of .................Luka................ And if we're playing away i think put Jairo in alongside Luka and drop Cabaye to the bench........
Ohhhh Lukaaaa ooooooh.... |

Think some of his team mates thinking the same as nobody seem to want to pass to him today even though he was clearly available to pass too

3 seasons this guy has been shocking. I have said it time and time again he can't defend and is crap on the ball. Has to play Fosu-Mensah there surely. Or wan-bissaka

Agreed. Shocking display today. How he gets in the team week after week is a mystery to me. His attempt at a cross in the second half was just laughable.

Some of the criticism of JL is way over the top. Going forward he has been disappointing, but he never hides in the game. He always puts in a good shift defensively and he's brave in the challenge. His experience is invaluable.

His experience is invaluable. Honestly who have you been watching. He has never been solid defensively. He is rash and overcommits. He can't pass a football. He gets closed down and slows down the play when it gets to home because he isn't good enough on the ball. His only strength is his athleticism which lets him recover from the mistakes he makes occasionally. If I was one of the other players I wouldn't pass to him. That miscontrol and the tackle that led to the yellow was Ward in a nutshell.

His experience is invaluable. I accept the positives you have mentioned but alas he still needs to be replaced.
