Tbf Alonso has responded with some pretty strong performances since being dropped.

He’s been better DL for sure...but we’ll lets just see. I think he’s a wonderfully technical and cultured baller but just doesn’t have the pace at this level in this system

He is a baller!
Favorite player on the current team despite his obvious limitation

Great game for Alonso this. Silva's so scared of Hazard Richarlison isn't allowed to exploit Alonso's space, which is good cos he'd fry him.

And then he gives away a pen lol

Please can we stop this ‘good technically’ ‘baller’ thing. It’s not just that he’s slow, he’s a completely average footballer. Let us down again today. Yellow card the firs time he’s challenged in a game, lost the ball stupidly in run for first goal and now that

Bk I was trying to be objective but I agree

Hate to say I told you so

I burst out laughing when he blatantly pushed Richarlison to avoid being torn apart on yet another counter attack (which I'm convinced the ref saw and took pity on him lol).

Shocking LB. If we return to a back five by all means keeping him, otherwise he's just dead weight.
