Jan Vertonghen

His cross for son’s goal- a thing of beauty. So much quality why can’t our other left wing backs di that? Whipped in with some beautiful dip, into the perfect area for son to volley it in. He hardly looked up, just put the ball in an amazing area just begging to be put away. Fecking love that

Even their keeper gestured with a swooping motion mimicking the ball's trajectory after they conceded. Jan has admirers everywhere.

Football intelligence, look at the few seconds before his assist and goal, both cases he looks up, knows the situation, makes the run, for his goal he even calls for the cross from Aurier.

The assist is even more amazing because it's only one person in box (Son) to aim for, had to be perfect.

We need to upgrade our FBs unfortunately.

Yep! And we've gotten into a strange situation where a couple of seasons ago, our cm and fbs were arguably amongst our strongest positions and now both amongst our weakest!

Some work to do there this summer for sure.

Or maybe our fans need to look at other teams and realise that what some perceive is a weakness is actually an area we’re well equipped for

Whilst I’d agree trippier and aurier are not as good as peak Walker... the drop between them is negligible to the point you can’t work out how is first choice. That’s the same on the left although both are better than their right sides counterparts

When you how others suffer when losing their first choice it stands out. Maybe that’s why we have been consistent

That's a very fair point on squad cohesion and quality drop-off...doesn't always work though (See Arsenal under Wenger when he turned brick...)
 
Agree. In Toby’s defence he was filling in on his wrong side
Indeed. Perhaps better off playing Davies at LCB when Vertonghen is absent and Rose is match fit; what with Sanchez, Foyth and Alderweireld all preferring RCB in a back four.

So Pedro cuts inside onto Toby's strong side and its because he was playing out of position? he just did crap! simple as that. He was playing so well but that was just a crap moment for him.
