Ballard being suspended


That’s a poor take.
But I did notice from the Forest game onwards that crosses from deep into the far post have been a weakness for us. Almost caught out twice against Chelsea too.
 
Is injury record is a little iffy to be fair to Dan, maybe the suspension was the excuse needed to maybe have a minor surgery so he’s alright for pre-season
That what I have just been saying to the owld fella earlier - out for the last 3 games and no World Cup so probably the ideal time if he was needing an op.
 
And to a certain extent Alderte being injured. With those two in defence together for the last few games we're not making Europe. Gerty and O'Nien have stepped up magnificently. We've been so much more solid and harder to score against in these last few games.
I think they’re all really solid. Wouldn’t be worried if any of them played

Joao Pedro's chance was right in the centre with Mukiele caught out behind.

Conceded in both. Kept a clean sheet against Man Utd and were never troubled in Alderete’s last game. Only side they haven’t scored against under carrick
