Made me laugh out loud that moment.You can visibly see the panic when someone closes him down. That aimlees hoof in the first half was quite pathetic.

It's like he doesn't actually know the basics of defending, everybody knows you show the player down the line and then try to block the cross, make it difficult for them. Instead he just gets thrown off by any little body shuffle and then turns like a tank.He is truely awful, after so long here, i've come to the realization that I can't stand seeing him on the pitch anymore, one or two times last night he let the guy cut inside... in the box.. it mystifies me how he's an Italian international defender. It's staggering just how poor he is.
I was laughing when that happened. The whole play had gone by then and all of sudden he finally comes flying down the line. Reminded me of a 6 aside I played where we had an older lad and one time he started yelling on the overlap. So I looked over and he wasn't there. He was still back in our half slowly trucking along.By far the worst player on the pitch. There were several moments where our right flank was completely open and he was camped near our box. Then 30 seconds later he starts making overlapping runs when Bristol had 8 players in their half.
This sums him up. That clearance is a disgrace. He actually looks like he's scared of the ball and he's pathetic going forward. A mystery how's he's lasted this long.

Finally people are stopping trying to act like he is good at defending. Being garbage at attacking doesn't automatically mean he is good at defending, no he isn't much good at it either.

Roma and Napoli would welcome him back with open arms, even Inter considering they still field Santon, Nagatomo, D'Ambrosio and Dalbert. You may expect a £10m offer in January for sure.
As said thinking of some of the players we've moved on and what we're left with is painful generally, but this has to be the worst case.
Rafael, Fabio, Buttner (FMFL), Blackett, CBJ, Gary Nev (now) are all preferable to him as squad fullbacks.
Blackett was terrible and CBJ struggles to get games in the championship.

I can't believe how crap Darmian is. £12 million for an Italian international defender looked like a bargain but he's awful. He should be booked for time wasting whenever he crosses the halfway line.
If there's any substance to the rumours Juve are interested, he'd make a nice part-exchange for either of the two players we've been linked with.
I remember being quite excited when he signed him. feck knows whats happened to him. Scared to attack, scared to defend.
The Caf was generally very excited when we bought him. Shows how much we all know
Shadow of the player he was, Van Gaal really took apart certain players.
Send him back home. I'd be happy to see Dybala in return. However, I feel Mourinho might prefer another left winger/midfielder (Douglas Costa or Asamoah). Rashford and Martial needs even more competition.
