He’s been below par for a couple of games, and we have an elite left back rotting away on the bench.He's had like one bad game. Why would he need to sit down?

I remember him being: great vs Sp**s and united, bit poor vs everton and poor today.He’s been below par for a couple of games, and we have an elite left back rotting away on the bench.
Tierney is not elite. He's made of glass and offers nothing going forward but putting his head down and smashing woeful crosses that lead to nothing, a role Martinelli is filling quite well. He's a nice lad and he might present a good alternative to Zinchenko at LB against certain opponents and in certain scenarios but at no point has he ever been elite. You can't be injured all the time and elite. The lack of impact Zinchenko has had in the last 2 matches is about Tierney's average impact.He’s been below par for a couple of games, and we have an elite left back rotting away on the bench.
I think the problem is he is playing wayyyy too forward right now.He trying hard in this role and at home game is just unnecessary to use him like this he asked to fullback and number 8 as same time its just unnecessary away from home maybe it'll work because we have more space

I did think this, he was making decisions that didn't seem like him. Rushing shots/passes and shooting when he should pass, passing when he should shoot and so on.He is a wonderful player in our 3rd of the pitch, the middle 3rd of the pitch, but when it comes to the final 3rd- he shouldn’t be getting as many touches there as he is.
He was our best player against Newcastle.Against structured teams (Newcastle,
In my opinion he’s still been just as composed, but in much more deep positions.I did think this, he was making decisions that didn't seem like him. Rushing shots/passes and shooting when he should pass, passing when he should shoot and so on.
Looked a far cry from the guy who was the most composed player in the team in prior weeks.
