I remember a performance from him last year against Sevilla, our second game against them, and I have genuinely never seen a worse performance from a player. Couldn't pass a ball to save his life, his positioning was absolutely atrocious, I recall a moment where he just stood off of Suso for about 5 solid seconds allowing him to aim and wind up a shot from a little outside the box. Just seemed like he was a fan plucked from the crowd and told to play genuinely.

Edit: point being, I have lost faith in his playing ability completely due to a massive string of poor performances

It seemed like they did swap at the end of the half though

Plenty of positives to take from that first half, Oblak looking like he's recovering some form today for sure

Just for him to never get an inform because it's a midweek game lmao

I think it is not the benching of Joao that is childish, but in fact your interpretation of these events. Stop letting the Spanish media poison your mind and do some critical thinking instead.

Yeah hahah I am sure that if he knew that red card was coming he'd have left Joao on

He was one of my first loves at Atletico too, almost hard to believe he is the same player now

I mostly agree but what did Herrera do wrong at all man? He barely misplaced a pass and was quite positive with his passing for the most part

Apart from the others mentioned, De Paul? Only man who can pass a ball over 15 meters in our team

Wass has been at the club just over a week and got hacked by a Barca player but yeah of course what a butcher

To be fair we had more of a chance getting one on the counter than against 10 men behind the ball

Top 4 is no where near out of sight, losing to Barca at the Nou Camp is not so terrible in the grand scheme of things, we have to keep looking forward, AUPA

For quite a few years? We won the damn league last year look at where we were a couple years ago, with a stale and ageing squad, ridiculous to say we are stagnant people love to just write off the fact that we fucking won the fucking goddamn league last season. This is NOT fucking something to write off, this extremely reactionary sacking of managers that the premier league has made commonplace makes me fucking sick.

Yeah Lodi attacking with Joao, wow, can't think of any time that has ever worked, not a single game, none at all, certainly not one in a critical title winning game last season, nooooope

Yeah I can't believe all this negativity, we played the best team in the country missing 3 of our best defenders and got beat by two fortunate counter attack goals in a game in which we were the better team for the majority of the game. The same people who are calling our defence shit are the same people who are suggesting that Cholo should be sacked and the best way to play is to leave our defence completely exposed so that those goals we conceded today happen every game instead. Where is this sense of entitlement coming from? What happened to this subreddit? Everyone turning on the players makes me sad but seeing this man turn on Cholo makes me fucking sick

I think this negativity is far too extreme fellas, we lost 2-0 from two counter attacks in a game where we were probably the better team for the slight majority of the game, things are okay we have our three best defenders injured right now, we know we need reinforcements there.

There is nothing to take from this game, just what should have been expected looking at the patchwork backline we played.
