A crap player.

Maybe I'm being far too harsh.

Just don't see the appeal

Upgrade on Targett? Not under the current manager!

Very, very ordinary player. Needs to improve and quickly.

On today’s showing he’s not an improvement.  Becoming a bit of a liability too.

First 3 games this season
Off the pitch to remove jewellery and they attacked his side to get the corner they scored from
Scored an own goal
Conceded a penalty

He's not shit but it's not a great start to the season for him.

Really disappointed with this chap. Upgrade on Targett, never in a million years.

Has started this season poorly. Today, he was abject.

He’s a very good player, but he’s clearly not in great form and I think tactically we’re leaving his weaknesses pretty exposed.

Whilst I don't  blame him for the penalty, as that was awful decision,  he was awful all game and clearly targeted

Our system right now was meant to make the most of two excellent full backs. Instead it is exposing them time and again. We’ve not seen anything close to the best out of Digne or Cash for that matter so far this season.

Decent going forward, very suspect as a defender which is worrying in a full-back.
