Fuchs

[HesNotGudjonsonn2]

I love him but he is past it isn’t he? 

[Corky]

He shouldn't be playing. There was no need for him to play in this game.

[Stinkenzo]

I hope none of the people who are saying he's past it were the same people who were saying he's still got it three weeks ago

[jim5000]

He’s supposed to be emergency backup, not playing 90 mins 3x week

More than likely but surely he should be an emergency back up and we could have set up without him for 90 mins?

[honeybradger]

Cant really blame him when he's our backup, he's not supposed to be playing. 

[adam]

Its not his fault he is picked every week. Shouldn't have been anywhere near the side tonight. 

[SecretPro]

Awful today. Truly awful.

Exactly this. No need to play him tonight. Shocking management. In all honesty he’s a good emergency back up but should be nowhere near the starting 11

[Bezzanator89]

In the name of all that is holy, bring back Castagne ASAP.

[HesNotGudjonsonn2]

I don’t blame him one bit. I know, as a man of 40, your legs go and you don’t really remember this fact when you play football. I used to be a well timed tackle type of defender and now I am a constant cropper. Lol

[UniFox21]

Showing his age, should never have started the game tonight.

[Manwell Pablo]

Fofana and Evans weren’t exactly brilliant either.

[Fox92]

I said it last season. Don't get why he's still here. HOWEVER he has done ok this season but he's played too many games now. No way should he have played tonight, perfect game to rest him.

 

Fofana and Evans weren't any better tonight though.

He’s finished. He might do a job when we’re sitting back against a side like Arsenal, but when we’re playing a higher line he’s had it. 

[themightyfin]

Another easy scapegoat. Has filled in brilliant this season and would have been screwed without him at times.

Didn't see many other much better tonight. An off day for most players i think. 

[dylanlegend]

Bad night for a lot of players... but to say he’s finished. Get a grip bloody hell he’ll play in a win next week and we’ll all be praising him 

[nnfox]

I think "past it" is a little harsh.  He had a shocker today though.  He should have been subbed at half time, no doubt.

[DennisNedry]

Got to blame Rogers for picking him tonight. We didn't need the extra defender. Fuchs should have been rested.

[splinterdream]

Had a real shocker tonight, would rather we kept Thomas on when we went to a back 4

[Corky]

He's not past it, he's a back up player who should be used sparingly on the left of a back three. Thomas should be the back-up left sided defender. No idea why he went off instead of Fuchs.

[Vardinio'sCat]

Looked tired, which is not what we were saying a few weeks ago

Shouldn’t be starting a game in a 3 at home to Fulham! He’s been a good servant but this game is the first time I thought he looked past it. Against a poor Fulham team as well

I love the bloke but yes he should have hung up his boots last season

For us to be so short defensively as to have to rely on the likes of Fuchs (and Morgan sometimes) is criminal really.

Agreed.
