Rojo is a player i am not fond of. But on sunday he looked like he was trying to get sent off. Diving in to tackles like a mad man.
There is a difference between effort endeavour and jumping in like a loony .
All our previous 'hard men' were prone to a bit of a mad one from time to time but generally new the time and the place and sunday was neither of those things.
I realise he also nearly scored but he should have been sent off before that😂
Im all for a bit of physicality but even shaw said everyone avoids him in training. Bit of a screw loose if you ask me.
Matic got away with a couple too. One waa in my onion a yellow at least.
Gotta feel sorry for bailly. He just can't stay injury free. Really bad luck.

There are times I watch Rojo and bailly and wonder what went wrong. There are elements to their play I really like. Then they throw a couple of reckless tackles around and go off injured and my memory returns. Jones is the same. They get out of position and dive into some crazy challenge that belongs in the 90s.

Smalling may be limited in his ball playing at times (although he is not as bad as some like to make out) but he is definitely the best of the bunch after Lindelof - who is clearly our stand out CB at the moment.

Both Rojo and Bailly are walking red cards.
Rojo has had enough chances, he has to be moved on.
In the next season, Lindelof and a new top CB have to be first choices.
With Backup options as Bailly, Smalling and Tuanzebe.

Bailly played really well against Chelsea. Injuries and Mourinho destroyed his confidence


Bailly a walking red card?

When VAR is used next season, Smalling will be lucky to end most games the way he continuously grabs players.

TrueRedDevil, that's not quite true. More like limping red cards, judging by their injury history.

Haha Shappy.
The injury record of Jones, Rojo and Bailly combined is staggering.

Mad Hatter - Bailly was decent against Chelsea, but he too made a rash tackle near the edge of the box.
Such rashness will put the whole team in trouble.
He was even sent off for a similar tackle in Ole's second match.

TRD, all our defenders make rash tackles.

Look at the one Herrera made on the edge of the box and got booked for it.

You can't single out Bailly. All out defenders have been hit and miss.

Rojo should be gone this summer with Jones and Bailly following by next summer. And Smalling.

Rojo and Darmian must be a priority to sell this summer, I’d also let Bailly leave. If reports are to be believed, only Lyon want him and that frankly says it all. Trigger Alderweireld’s clause and put him next to Lindelof with Jones/ Smalling in support. Job done. New right back also a must have and we will look more solid.
