Too many mistakes every game don't learn stupid tackles lose his head quickly after conceding. Worrying

Needs to be gone this summer imo. His good performances here and there don't make up for the number of games where he is a liability. Doesnt' seem to have a good understanding with the rest of the backline. Maybe its not all down to him, but we need to find a stable CB paring (or back three if that's how we are playing) that works and can play game in and game out.

If we get PEA, CB should be the priority next window.

Some people were laughing at me when I suggested David Luiz a few days ago.

Mustafi is a coward. He offers nothing to our team. He made Nathan ******* Dyer & Ayew look like Messi & Suarez.

People genuinely think Johnny Evans wouldn't improve us :lol:

At the very least Evans doesn't make some of the basic errors that Mustafi makes and is sensible when in possession.

Don't know about him really, believe Otamendi and him were hauled as the best defensive duo in Spain when they both played for Valencia. His ability doesn't just disappear overnight. Think he is not at all comfortable playing the way Wenger wants, like most of our current squad frankly.

Thinking of a horror display from Mustafi and other clowns: Kos, Bellerin, Cech and Monreal, I wonder what has happened to #BouldEffect :)

The biggest part of being a defender is doing the basics and making as few mistakes as possible in critical areas. I'd say that Mustafi is the opposite of that.

He's good on the ball and a decent athlete, but **** me is he rash in the tackle, making poor decisions and generally a bit of a brainfart magnet. Even on a good day he'll make a couple of errors.

He's lucky he plays in Europe, and not in South America or Africa.

He's not good on the ball, he just smashes it at the player he's passing it to. Plays some absolute hospital passes into our midfielders.

I mean that he is comfortable on the ball for a CB, but I completely agree that him dribbling forward and passing the way he does is not good for the team at all.

I reckon if he didn't come with a solid rep/price tag and he wasn't good with the ball at his feet, he'd be considered a lot worse by fans. Like going down with some of Wenger's worst defensive buys - purely as a defender this lad is terrible. People have been comparing him to Vermaelen but Tom wasn't this bad. Even at his worst I don't think he was near as bad.

Would love to see a compilation of goals/chances conceded as Mustafi shouts at someone, completely unaware.

What does this guy smoke before matches? He shouts at everyone, goes sliding in like he gets bonuses for going to ground and is generally annoying to look at now. We spent 70m on him and Xhaka. Looking like terrible business

Can see them both gone in the summer. I had high hopes for Xhaka, there is some real talent there, but he just keeps doing the same ****.

Mustafi has overall been poor since his first few months.
