alexf Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Really solid game yesterday. Just dealt with everything basically. Strong in the tackle and strong in the air. One of his best games so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Right back has been a problem position for a good while. I'm not 100% sold on Debuchy defensively. Seems like a bit of a hothead too, but yesterday was a bit more assured - although he had a few lapses in concentration/poor starting positions for Villa attacks.

Mole_Toonfan Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Think he's come back quite well after his shitshower of performance against City. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Looks to me to be better when he's told to just concentrate on defending. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimburst Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 A few good tackles and played more conservatively than usual. Hopefully he continues in the vein and begins to up the forward runs he was apparently reputed for in France. Only once he's sussed defending properly, though.

Sifu Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Was his best performance to date yesterday. Almost beast-like, solid defending (bar one moment) and supported the attack as much as he could without compromising his defensive duties. The one moment I enjoyed was when he muscled his way down the Villa right wing at around the 70/75 minute mark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 His lack of pace means he's going to have to be quite a tough tackling fullback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belfast Mags Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Lunged in for a booking again though, can see him getting send off a couple of times this season I'm afraid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Lunged in for a booking again though, can see him getting send off a couple of times this season I'm afraid. He's looks slower than Simpson. He has to dive in or else he'll get skinned. Hopefully, he'll adjust his game to read situations better to cope.

KaKa Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 He's not slower than Simpson I don't think. The difference is that Simpson hardly ever got forward, and so wasn't out of position as much. In addition to this Simpson always backed off, and gave attackers more room, so he didn't appear to be lagging behind as much, however he invited attackers onto us a lot more.

Away Toon Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Apparently Simpson was the fastest player at the club, so definitely slower. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memphis Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Lost Agbonlatwat for his missed sitter, but very good other than that. Seems to be settled in the side. Think he let Luna get into a similar position too. He played well today though, I like the way he plays with Ben Arfa. Debuchy to Ben Arfa has been our most frequently completed pass over the last two matches - 26 different times, more than any other combination. 15 of his 25 passes on Saturday went to HBA.

LRD Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 That overhit pass by Hatem to Debuchy running to the byline for a cross. If it was Simpson, Hatem would have cut inside and had a crack at goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
