Becoming a bit of a scapegoat now tbh

 

He has been useless at either end of the pitch. Only place where I see him looking good is passing and moving down the wing in transition from either end. His end product cross/shot is usually gash. He gets bullied and can't mark very well at the other end.

 

Love to see him improve, but you'd hope after this amount of time he'd pick up a bit.

Debuchy didnt do a great deal wrong tonight imo. MYM and Santon stunk the place out and Colo had bramble-esque lapses on more than one occasion.

 

His marking and positioning off the ball was shocking at times. He also couldn't stick in a decent cross.

 

Santon has been the same really.

I was referring to his defending rather than his forays forward. As far as marking, the positioning of the entire defense seemed to be that of 4 individuals trying desperately to cover each other's arse - it certainly didnt look like a unit to me. In that respect Debuchy doesnt seem deserving of singling-out, it was a collective f*ck up.

Could be a case soon where Dummett is left-back and Debuchy & Santon are fighting for the right-back shirt. Neither have been overly convincing. Debuchy was the best of the back 5 today mind.

Was ok tonight, probably the best of a bad bunch, but going forward, he offers very little, which for all the hype before his arrival is very disappointing.

He's easily muscled of the ball and doesn't possess any genuine pace, so he's basically checkmated every time.

This. Useful in the air for a RB> Keep saying it but wish he would stay at the back and just focus on being solid.

He's 28 and doesn't know how where to stand at RB. I don't see good things for him as he gets slower, either.

 

He's still settling into a new country/league so he'll get some leeway from me no matter what his age.  Much more concerned with players who've been here 10 years, never learn and yet still get peoples backing.
