Thought he was fine today, not lighting to the world on fire but consistent and was one of our betters players.

Cashin/Dunk next week does worry me. Wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a change of armband next season but the lack of leaders in this team is costing us.

Slowest cb pairing in the league. Wonder if baleba will play cb.

Yep. Dunk OUT for not SEEMING to organise the team.

Webster (arguably not good enough at this level) IN.

Spot on, re leadership. Our kids are great when they're on a roll but if things aren't quite right, they shrink visibly. We look as lost as we did in November. Worrying lack of leaders on the pitch right now

without doubt our biggest problem. No leadership in the middle of the park and none really in defence when Dunk plays as the eldest statesman. It ok though we’ve paid Milner £3.6m this season to cheer them on from the stand.

Dunk hasn’t been as bad as the fan narrative suggests, despite falling from his usual levels. I’d still agree we need cover added in the summer.

Played well today and scored the 5th penalty against Forest. Showing bollcoks. Unlike a lot out there today.

For a tall man he’s always been really bad a dealing with big, physical centre forwards. That was evident on the first goal. For the second goal we were just all over the shop. How Munoz had the space he did, when they weren’t even coming forward particularly quickly, is beyond me, and I don’t know if that was a lack of organisation or people just not doing their jobs (Mitoma I am looking at you), but whatever it was, something was deeply amiss there.

Mitoma had just come back on after being crocked.

Desperately need Veltman, for several reasons

I'm not here to bury Dunk. I also don't think he is shot as a player at this level. BUT in a Fab side it just isn't working for him in the way it is for Igor and Webster with JPVH. The formation and expectation on centre backs to move the ball forward and mix the play up isn't his game

It does seem that we want to always play the ball through him and at 2-1 with 13 to play against 9 it seemed too laboured and plodding

This is clearly the area we have to focus on this summer, just hope we get there

Had a decent game but the pitchfork people will make sure to see something else.

I’m still in the Dunk in camp. Yes he’s on the decline but not as bad as the prevailing narrative suggests

Like highlighting him giving Mateta the freedom of the penalty box to turn and shoot?
