Vestergaard signs

The defense has to be separated from the group and all of them doing extra time on the training field getting their basic shi! together. I know it’s not our ideal defensive line or shape but bloody hell these lot are borderline amateurish. 

They are experienced pros performing way below the level required. There is no excuses they have to step up. So damn disappointing as we paid good money for the Southampton pair. Felt bad for nacho on his birthday he deserved a win for his efforts and Vardy too.

ill keep asking this because we need them back; when does Evans/JJ and n’didi come back?

I thought he was okay today but fvck me how can he not win headers. There was an attacking free kick in the first half where he needed to attack the ball but instead just chucked his body at it. It was so weird to see, especially considering his height.

 

edit: I must also say he seems easy to beat. Edouard beat him twice running and skipping over him

Edouard would’ve been a great signing for us. Shame that fell through.

Another problem with Vestergaard is that he's a friend of Schmeichel, so to get him out the team now is going to cause issues as we know how Schmeichel can be when he doesn't agree with something.

Schmeichel would have to be blind if he thinks Vestergaard is playing well

Don't get why people call for Benkovic. He's not gonna play under Rodgers at all lol 

He's not played in his last few loans either, but obviously it's just Brendan's spite.

Didn’t really pay enough attention to Denmark’s tactics in the Euros, but I clearly remember thinking Vesty looked absolutely fine. Why is he suddenly looking so questionable? Are we just looking closer, now he’s in blue? I think Denmark played a 3 at the back? Seem to recall he played on the left of that? Alarmingly, with the injuries we have, he is as good an option as we have - therefore we need to find a shape that gives us that secure defensive platform on which to build. I don’t think playing Dan or anyone else is a better option - no matter how average he’s looked thus far 😞😞

Southampton had the 2nd worse defence in the Premier League last season.

 

What do we do?

 

Buy half their back four:S

When you put it like that....I want to puke up. Really damages Brendan/Congerton reputation the transfer market. What's happened to our once trusted football analysis recruitment team. Can't we get Steve Walsh back in, even it's just a consultant position or even Claude Puel who I think would be great in finding quality young players for us.

We spent around £70 million this summer on Daka, Soumare and Vesty and thus far none of them have had much of a positive impact. The £8 million Olise comes on for Palace and gets them back in the game.

 

Way too soon to write of any of them, but thus far we’ve spent £70 million and regressed. 
 

Not great.

£23 + £17 + £15 is not £70

The simple truth is 5 at the back is the only option. We don’t have 2 reliable centrebacks and we are going to have to compensate or find a way to score 3/4 a game to win. 
 

We are in big trouble this season. Because there isn’t a good solution and whatever we do is going to be weak. 

So let's field 3 dunderheads instead of two, that should work. Since when has adding more of a bad thing ever worked?

Let’s face it, Amartey isn’t any better. 

He really is. Even if you just consider the style we play, which is a high line. A lot of the complaints about Vestergaard is his lack of pace and getting beaten too easily, that doesn't happen with Amartey as he's much quicker.

 

But Amartey is also better in 1 on 1 situation. Not saying he never gets beaten, but he's more likely to make the tackle than Vestergaard. And it's not like you're gaining anything in the air as despite his height, he awful in the air.

 

So yeah, Amartey might not be Evans or Forfana, but he a damn sight better than Vestergaard.
