Defence

Anybody know when we're going to stop conceding for fun at the back? We can't keep shipping goals and expect to outscore our opponents all season to win games. Kepa is a talented shot stopper but kills us with stuff like he did today. Something seriously needs to change at the back, far too many mistakes.

Kepa makes the exact same mistakes every game trying to play out from the back, the only difference is that sometimes we don't get punished for them

If 'Hilarious' is still the goalkeeping coach then that would go a long way to explaining it!

I sense the old Xmas syndrome reappearing, we habitually display generousity during this season of goodwill and poor results....

Kepa just doesn't inspire the defence with confidence. He's glued to his line and makes too many mistakes with distribution. Whoever sanctioned £72m for him at the club needs their bumps felt. Sick of losing to dross like Everton and West Ham. How we let Bulka go I do not know.

Becoming increasingly straining to defend Kepa. Keepers at his age should get benefit of the doubt but it's starting to get irritating how error prone he is. Mix that with his so-so shot stopping and he's becoming a liability.

But...... still playing better for us than Courtois' been playing for Real, so we still win

Zouma is so limited. Azpi is done.

I’d only blame Kepa at 10% for the 3rd goal. If Zouma wasn’t actually daydreaming it would have been a good ball for him to run onto. He also kept us in the game with 2 good saves.

But I do agree he has been really poor this season. Last season it was his weak hands that let everything in and now this season he’s struggling to play the ball out from the back.

Maybe it’s time to start Caballero in goal for a few games. The guys never let us down.

Kepas causing all sorts of trouble at the back, hes awful at commanding his box is nailed to his line and his passing out from the box shows total disregard for the defence he doent check to see if they are aware of what he intends. Pickford gave him a goalkeeping lesson yesterday.

anybody who watched the old boys game will know that Carlo is still a superb keeper, register him and well have a keeper that works , or get Cech out of the office absolutely garanree hes better than Kepa still.
