The one thing we have going for us is Maxi. Starting to get back into the groove. He will cause Manure lots of issues.
Ok. Darlow was never anything other than average championship, and tbh was very lucky to get so many Prem appearances with us.
Noted. The Champs league final actually gives Karius a good opportunity to go under the radar and surprise people, as there's no expectations of him.
The gaping holes in the previously indestructible defence should actually be the priority right now, Botman and Schar had 'mares in the first 20 mins yesterday.
Tripper was the weakest link yesterday. Schar, I’m sorry, is not a long term centre back for the club. He’s average at best and most fans ignore his lack of defensive qualities due to his roaming forwards.
Do we put on a practice match or something midweek to at least get Karius some play time? 2 years ffs. Has he been playing in the reserves this season or not? Haven't been looking.
It's interesting that Schar is learning from Botman rather than the opposite. Schar has maybe another year, but even in this summer, it's worth upgrading. Tripps has had a few off days recently, but that should be a point of focus between now and the final.
