Fair enough. But if the cb is less exposed there would be fewer mistakes.

Spot on.

The system we played had something to do with it.

Also all the mid need to do their part. Not sure i want 1 pure defensive mid. Would like a roy keane/viera who can do that but can also attack. Along with a carrick who could intercept then ping.

As long as he can read a game a good DM would be the same as a Keane/ Viera.

Is the ri ght answer.

Unless their role is to get the ball and short pass. To a more creative player.

Although saying that, it could be good.

From what I can gather our fans along with his Argentinian team mate rate him higher than everyone else
Neutrals still think he is a red card every game

Which, in fairness, is just ignorance based on a cliche snapshot.
He didn't have one red card last season, indeed, since his wreckless stage which seemed to peak in early 2024, he has largerly avoided any stupid cards (5 yellows in all comps last season albeit his appearance record was less).

I have to say, the more I think about his unforced errors early last season, the more I find myself buying into the whole 'we fudged our pre-season treatment of players like him who had played a lot of football' scenario. I think he was overplayed for a year prior. He simply wasn't fit/focussed enough. I also do think the lack of protection in front of him/cover if he was too far upfield absolutely exposed him. AND yes, some of those errors were just silliness!

We will see I guess
I do agree the red card thing is the kind of diatribe sky push
The were in talking about were nor when we pushed upfield by the way
He certainly wasn’t focussed enough
Do you remember Leicester away?
Brighton away?
Wolves away ?
When we conceded in those games we were not the attacking force

I remember them all. I am not disagreeing per se. What I am saying is that there appear to be some legit reasons, albeit I found myself exasperated at all of those.

The reason of us being exposed imo can’t be attributed to the errors where he is culpable
Doesn’t mean there aren’t many others that came from over exposure though
Seeing the athletico result tonight may make the desire him more.. game they wont pay up but good for us
