We put him in next to Coleman, Baines, and Jagielka and he still looked badly crap.Come on blues - cringing at some comments in here.
Clearly, there's a player in there who can defend and there was just so many mitigating factors last season - management, the inconsistency of the defence he was in and he played under medication/injuries.
Put any defender in that Everton side last season, often next to Cuco Martina, Ashley Williams and a young Kenny and they'd struggle. Later on in the season, he did start to settle/look better when Coleman and Baines come back, and we settled with Jagielka an Keane rather than Williams.
His positioning and marking is up there with the worst I've seen in a blue shirt. The Alcaraz comparison is fair.
