He is in fact our 5th choice left back - but Dalot is the only option on the right nowHe has the thankless task of being our 4th choice left back, did all we could expect.

Given how involved Lindelof was in the build up to the winner, I suppose I can't criticise him too much. However, he has developed a terrible habit of winning the ball and giving it straight back to the opposition attackers. He did it against Brentford, which led to their goal. He did it again last night, which started the move that ended with a Sheff Utd penalty. Something very panicky about him at the moment.
Another player who has far outstayed his welcome at the club. We keep tolerating mediocrity by keeping players who’re clearly not good enough for the highest level for years, and then expect to challenge for trophies.
They are like Lindelof. Staying away from the action and avoiding tough situations.Surprised the usual lot aren't in trying to pretend he was good again. Awful player.

We have zero outlet from the left yet we still only attack from that side. Why is he even playing there when we have a fit left back?
He's not a left back though so it's hard to judge him against a nippy player like Foden. Leaving Haaland open back post was the worst thing he did but, again, he naturally moved centrally to cover there.Lindelof is terrible. He really is. There was a moment around 47 minutes that typified him. He looked twice over his shoulder for Foden, saw him and then just stopped keeping pace with him and let Foden run past him and nearly volley it in. He loses his man at the far post, constantly. I don't know what it is because he does look around. Its like he just switches off. His habit of intercepting the ball and passing it right back to opponents is also doing my head in.

But our great manager said its tactical. Maybe ETH is equally useless? How we still have Lindelof at the club is beyond me. We dont have any decent young defenders?Just so poor. With him in the backline you just know the oppo's CF will win any high balls and be able to bring the ball down into play.
