    We didn’t look nearly as bad as when Duffy has been in. Plus Laxalt is in too now.

    I never said there wasn't did I? We still need another CB in january to replace Duffy and help those two out, but more often than not they're both solid, Ajer has improved this season too.

    Im worried that the two players he dropped were playing again after only missing half a game and i suspect they will be right back into the team after the break.

    Jullien might have had a slowish start this season but he was excellent last season and showed that 95% of the time..

    He has plenty credit in the bank and some..

    Jullien has been very consistent, I remember 2 poor games from him in his whole times hes been here. Duffy's had 2 good games

    I am not putting him in any bracket or saying he is crap,it was more a case of pointing out the mistakes are there no matter who plays. The problem imo is with the way we set up or play games. More than a few times part of our defence is way up front after a move breaks down and we are scrabbling at the back getting our arses kicked. We are to gung ho regardless of who we are playing.

    Even if it was 1 or 2 more, he's been a rock for us..

    A leader who has produced in big moment's at both end's numerous time's..

    His distribution with both feet is very underrated as well..

    Faster and could carry the ball out of defense, but was a mistake machine. Boyata only improved when he realized his downing of tools cost him a summer transfer. We just tend to sign error-prone CB-s.

    He was,but there was still a point where he cost us goals in game after game and never got dropped.

    Aye the setup definitely leaves us exposed sometimes..

    I think we could have Van Dijk back and we'd still get skinned defensively:fear:

    How many left to right cross field balls to our back post did Motherwell hit today? I genuinely lost count. Nearly everyone of them found their man.

    A better team would have punished that yet its basic route one football ripping us open.

    Still worried.
