That defence

Said this at the start of the season. I would happily rid of them all, plus the keeper Lloris who is 100% finished as a top level keeper. Reguilon, would be the only one I would keep. Unfortunately, I would rid of Toby, who is an absolute legend, but is now a shadow of himself. Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Aurier can all f** off as far as I’m concerned. Give a s** if he scored 2 today, Sanchez is a complete clown 🤡 in defence. Dier isn’t any different and the less I talk about Aurier and Davies the better. Doherty been a pi** poor signing too. Literally would sell the lot and rebuild again. The whole defence needs a complete turnover. Attack wise if we keep Harry, we are never going to have an issue. Defensively, we are achieving nothing with this lot. Just want Jose out now, so a fresh manager can come in and rebuild for next season.

Didn't Jose more or less say he was happy with the squad when he first came in and that he didn't need to change much? So much for his judgement.

he probably didn't believe the defence could be as big a shambles as it is

On paper the squad looked amazing.

Then you realise how average they all are.

Doovde, in particular it’s our awful defence, in which our brilliant attack can’t even dig us out of a grave because when we score 4, we concede 5. Just shambolic. We have 2 fantastic attackers in Son and Kane who continue to drag this team. Ndombele, Hojberg and Reguilon are our only other 3 players worth mentioning. The others are all a heap of s**. Lamela, I love his work rate and tenancy, but he’s far too inconsistent and injury prone. Bergwijn is the most pointless attacker we have. What the f** does he do? GLC the new sick note. Extremely disappointing signing. The less I say about Winks, Dier, Sanchez, Aurier, Davies etc, I think the better

How can Jose not know though? Any blind man could see our defence had problems before Jose even came in. Either Jose was trying to play down how good the squad was when he said it, or his judgement is crap. Remember though, this is the same manager who sold Salah and De Bruyne.

harsh to beat him with that stick, because the squad he kept still won the league no?

de bruyne and salah have only really flourished at their current clubs... salah was good in Italy but didn't set the world alight...

Mourinho: "Don't make me speak too much please about the defensive mistakes we made. I think that's obvious. I don't feel comfortable speaking about that."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Excuse me Mr. Mourinho: "You are the current manager! You are not supposed to be "comfortable" about giving up 5 goals to Everton".

It’s the centre backs that need sorting more than anything, Reggie is good and Aurier has been good but we need to prioritise 2 centre backs in the summer to replace Toby, Sanchez and Dier.

Get rid of them 3 and have Tanganga and Rodon as back up.
