2025/26 James Tarkowski

Hahaha Unreal mate

2 teams with a better defence and they sit top of the league.
He's the Kingpin the leader of a mean defence.
Its not even debatable.

Dave? What the hell mate? Like 16 days ago, you were batting away praise for Moyes by saying he'd inherited one of the best CB pairings in the league. I have to assume this was in reference to Tarks and Branthwaite?

I doubt too many would agree that this defence is 'very good'. That's why most demanding a new RB and another LB in the summer...unless you think it's all good in those positions?

We play deep because the defence are slow and clumsy and cant be trusted...not even at corners can they be trusted anymore.

If you put 7 player constantly behind the ball then there's a fairly reasonable chance you concede just 35 goals.

Erm is Tarks leaving? Or dying? This coverage from the os is like obituary vibes

You’ve obviously got Dave on ignore

Defensively, I think they're all pretty sound. It's the technical ability and attacking play of the full backs that is lacking a bit.

And OJ didn't murder his wife because the police didn't catch him.

He's compared him to a murderer twice in a few days. Amazing.

Maybe look up the word analogy in the dictionary.

Not a chance...Mick loves a bit of drama.

They're sound when they play deep. But that limits us in attack. The best defenders can play high and defend 1v1 against pace. If Tawks and Keane do that they get absolutely rinsed by even average strikers. They're good at blocking and heading away in their own 18 yard box though. But we don't want to play like Burnley.

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Well let’s hope our defence is on best behaviour today. That Thiago is a delicate little flower, so gentle & polite.

Done him today to score and get booked, and Braithwaite.

Never done the score mate just done Tarkowski to score anytime and get booked, and a separate bet of the same with Braithwaite.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Not sure if its the camera angle doing a disservice but jeez

Why did they boo him ? He played for them ages ago

Was winding up Igor Tudor - who has scored against Tarkowski five times this season, make of that what you will.

I believe they booed him from the first time he touched the ball
