His form = one game?

He was fine against Sheff Utd, Stoke and Man City.
 
He can't defend when an old fashioned centre forward and surprisingly that's how Antonio played, pulls on to him. Normally we find solutions to that, occasionally we don't.

Pretty much sums it up doesn't it. Had Nuno not played the back 3 so far apart and had a screening player in front of Coady to stop the passes into Antonio and close those options off this chat wouldn't be happening. It's the same for the team in general, there are a couple of players out of form or had a bad game here and there but that is on the management in the last 2 league games mostly.
 
Boly is out of form, Adama is even more out of form, Vinagre probably isn't good enough (but he's the whipping boy at the moment and gets criticised for stuff that isn't even his fault), Moutinho was good in the first game but not great in the other two. As you say we let Coady get exposed on Sunday, we shouldn't even let it get to that point. Raul was shite on Sunday but this happens sometimes, in fact sometimes he's shite and still scores, eg Norwich away last season. That's about it really.
 
Absolutely loved Curle. Must have been an absolute bastard to play against.

I'd hoped that he'd sorted this out, he dealt with Belotti really well over the two Torino games, and Belotti is a far better player than both Antonio and Mitrovic (though admittedly not as strong, but he is a physical player) the biggest issue for Coady was that he got isolated down the channels, and that doesn't usually happen with the way we set up.

It might just be me but the RCB and LCB seem to be playing closer to the Wing Backs than to Coady this season. Huge gaps between Coady and them. Not sure if that is our tactic or the oppostion doing something to get them out as wide as possible
