Best pure defender in the team. Should have started, in the little time he was on the pitch he stopped Mbappe in all 1v1 situations.

Eric at RB and Araujo at CB beside him should be the way to go from now on.

I'll be honest, I still don't know if he's the long-term solution for us, however I do believe he deserves to start over Cubarsi at this point. Not doing so is simply poor management/coaching.

A very good/top class CB is a must this summer regardless. Along with a CF.....and a LB/RB. Gonna be fun when we have 10m to spend for it though.

agreed, and christensen and cubarsi rotate for the 2nd CB spot

kounde should be sold, have no idea why he's starting for barca and france

Christensen need to get his ass out of this club soon too. He's always either injured, hurt his toe or puking somewhere.

Simply unreliable.

Folk alwys say this then inevitably he has major fuck ups in exactly the situations a pure defender shouldnt.

He seem to be learning though :lol:
Could have grabbed Mbappe and gotten sent off a la PSG, but made a recovery run to put him under a bit of pressure and shoot instead.
I hope that continues. I know he has the UCL quarters and semi circled on his calendar though

I hope Flick will try and teach him. Physically, Araujo has everything to be a top3 CB in the world. He's a tank, he's fast and he can score goals. His mind is his biggest weakness, but football is not physics. It should be possible to teach him to play Flick's tactic. I hope Flick sees this, because it's a shame to waste so much potential when your other option is Garcia. It can't be that hard to teach him the offside trap and better positioning, come on Flick.

Lil bro FLICK needs to come up with different tactics that suits the players he has,
But lets be honest. Hes clueless. He has nothing
