Mings was the walking disaster today not tuanzebe.

They was both really bad. That last 15mins was atrocious

I don't get it with Tuanzebe.

I mean, he's alright at times, but why do we have this ongoing love affair with him that means loaning him at every opportunity?

He's not bad, but really, is that good enough?

Exactly how I feel.

He was like Ugo versus Norwich in that first half. Every time he had the ball I was bricking it.

Why are we developing a Man United loanee instead of playing Hause and developing him?

We'll sign him in January I bet and sell Hause next summer so that's why I think.
And then sigh when Hause makes it into an international defender and Tuanzebe is sitting on the bench at Villa park week in week out.

If the Ugo comparison continues moving forward then he'll do for me.

Really not been convinced by Tuanzebe so far this time around.

I don't think Hause is comfortable enough on the ball to ever be considered international standard.

Mind you, neither is Mings, but he seems to think he is, and apparently that's sufficient.

I would take Hause over either of them right now.

I was not that convinced first time round in Championship but not good enough for premier and i would be mightily pissed off if i was Hause. At least Hause offers something at set pieces Axel offers nothing at either end of the pitch.

Tuanzebe is struggling in a back 3 (surprisingly so for me as I thought he would be well suited) but he isn't the only one. Konsa isn't as composed either and Mings thinks he is even more of a Maldini. Tuanzebe did play very well against Chelsea in a back 4 only a few weeks ago. Before then he also was very solid against Brentford. Moral of the story, we need to switch back to a back 4.

We need horses for courses. We've proven we can do well with both 3-5-2 and 4-3-3, but we've also proven we can fuck it up with both too.

Have played a proper 4-3-3 yet this season? I don't want us to go back to 4-2-3-1.
