I can't even begin to comprehend how someone who played for Man City and wpuld have trained with them daily can be so hopeless at passing a ball, he must have been the laughing stock of the training ground everyday

Looks strong and confident at times and then out of nowhere passes the ball straight to the oppositions. Think I still prefer Efe...

His passing is poor,but he did a lot right today as well. Made some great challenges and interceptions.

Can't pass
Zero positional sense
Gets pushed around
He creates panic in everyone around him
Has a bit of pace but that's it.
Hope they can get rid of him in the summer as he is pretty useless

There's shampoo passing, and then there's Boyata's passing.

eff sake it's not even funny anymore
The worst thing about his passing for me is that it allows other teams to almost totally shut us down just by allowing him the time and space on the ball. Inverness done that brilliantly in the first half today.
Yep. Other managers have him sussed and set their team up to make sure Boyata is isolated, with the ball, and has to pass it out of defence.

Malmo at home was a good example. It was so obvious.

Didn't see him getting pushed around yesterday.

Those early misplaced passes were caused by Bitton and Brown hiding.
Their showings first half were shocking.

I could see Lustig taking his spot if Janko is back fit
I thought we'd all got over this Lustig should play central defence nonsense :nono:

Two misplaced passes that I can recall last night.
I think that compares more than favourably with the rest of the back 4, who spent the night booting the ball into the stands.

To think we had to fire in appeal to make sure he was available last night!

Bloody hell.

He really is hopeless. His athleticism is his only redeeming feature.

I have wondered whether the passes he plays - often risky ones into midfield - are happening because he's been asked to do it by the manager. Van Dijk and Denayer were capable of bringing the ball out of defence and it seems we've tried to replicate that with Boyata.

I wouldn't even play Lustig at RB when he's back. I'm bored of watching him hit his crosses straight into defenders 5 yards from him.

His appeal has been denied.

Deila said as much in an interview with Sutton earlier in the season.

I think he's a decent defender who's being asked to do too much.
