Awful. Not fit to wear the shirtYeah, I noticed it too and thought he was poor today. I've always thought there's a good player in there and that he'd come good but I'm starting to wonder if he'll ever really quite get on the pace. I also think with 3 in the middle the protective player isn't quite so important because you have the numbers in there and I think a player who can get forward and join attacks might be more important to us.Frustrating player, Sanchez. In mere moments, he can go from looking like an established international midfielder with poise and power, to a bloke who doesn't know which way round his own feet are.

I didn't think invididually anyone was too terrible although it was one of the poorest performances from Sanchez who was no protection and Hutton was bad first half. One positive is that I thought Okore and Lescott largely did well when called upon, maybe we finally might have a reasonable pairing there.Must have been watching a different game than me then mate the only thing Hutton got wrong was one moment against the fastest player on the park Walcott. Did you have your eyes closed when Lescott made that rickett in the penalty area towards the end of the game, he never seems to want the ball and doesn't know when to go in for the tackle and when to stand off and defend a player.No I didn't have my fucking eyes closed, that's why I said 'largely'. Hutton hardly passed it to a Villa player in the first half or did you have your fucking eyes closed? He was much better second half and I admire his effort.
