He was better than some senior players out there tonight.
Really? You really think that?

Looked absolutely woeful when he came on but I think he calmed over half time and did nothing majorly wrong in the second half.
Fair play to CH as I wanted him off at half time but he stuck by his player and believed in him.

Nothing to do with the goals and not, in any way, trying to make him a scapegoat (collective responsibility/rubbishness and all that). I just don't think he's up to the job.

He will be targeted as our weak point...concerns how long Seb will be out for now....

I just find it difficult to understand your reaction to a youngster new to our team. You are very quick to make judgement.
Think people are using Tomori as a scapegoat - the lad did well under the circumstances (being brought on very early on in a massive game, against a £50m + team, and being the odd one out in a starting side that have performed so well recently). We showed glimpses of quality today but IMO our centre mids let us down. I'm sorry but giving away possession as much as they did completely threw us off balance. Not to mention murray who seems to pass to the first player in sight, regardless of whether or not he plays for us. I was shitting it tonight before the game - most others on here seemed very confident. We still have a while to go yet and I'm just forgetting today ever happened. UP THE F*UCKING ALBION

The job of third choice emergency left back? Who would you replace him with?

Poor young lad with no experience thrown into the deep end in a game like that. Playing completely out of position as a right footed left back. Felt for him. They tore him a few times early but he improved 2nd half. Need to support the fella IMO.
As I said on other thread, how unlucky were we to have our 3 perfectly capable left backs out in a game like this

Couldn't disagree more, in second half had some good passages of play going forward.

started quite poorly but had a decent second half and didn't make anywhere near as many balls ups as many of our more senior players

He definitely calmed down a lot second half, looked all over the place when he first came on. It did seem that the team were having to cover for him a lot and avoided playing anything through him though, and I do wonder if this had any impact on the final score.
