Lamare Bogarde

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I love his effort, and he’s had a tough gig covering different positions. But it was noticeable how much the structure of the midfield didn’t work with him today. He just isn’t good enough on the ball at his current level.

Certainly not good enough to cover for Youri today who took about 30 minutes to realise he wasn't still in bed. He wasn't alone on not being good enough on the ball today, in fact I'm struggling to think of anybody who was. As TV points out, the lad is only 22, not many can play the defensive midfielder role at that age, even Onana looked lost at times but has grown into the role this season though he's no where near the standard of Kamara. Who is.

No and it’s not really a pointed criticism, he might get there but he isn’t there yet and Unai left it too long to address it today.

Not his day today and he looked rusty but he’s been a very decent squad player for us this season.

Squad players need to step up when called upon. Bogarde has made no impact when starting against Everton, Brentford and today.

In saying that, Tielemans was zero help next to him.

[Drummond]

He's a kid replacing a Rolls Royce and a £50m player.

He's useful to cover a range of positions.

Don't know why Barkley dropped down to the bench. The whole thing felt like we had our minds on Thursday.

[ChicagoLion]

Has hardly played for weeks now, so being thrust into the game looked too much for him.
