We mostly start the matches slow giving teams early opportunities that lucky for us they haven't taken.
We don't close down teams quick enough.
From throw ins the opposition team always move and receive the ball short!
Our movement is shocking and end up throwing it long.
Not just tonight been all season
We did look tired but still hung on for a good win. Got very lucky with a VAR decision.

Iwobi is poor
Holgate is crap all he does is play it backwards all he's got nothing but a turn of pace.
We rely on doucoures pace soooo much we need to get him attacking further up the pitch hopefully with Allan fit again this may help.

Iwobi has been poor but Holgate has been instrumental in our run of clean sheets. Not sure what you want from him? When we had an attacking right back we shipped goals. Holgate has steadied the ship, yes he's not an attacking right back but he has done a decent job.

I’m not convinced by Holgate.
As previously said always seems to have a foul in him and just looks a little ponderous.

Not sure how you can say he’s been instrumental in our run of clean sheets - think Pickford, Keane and Godfrey have been instrumental.

Holgate as well as the others played when we conceded 3 to city, 2 to Fulham, 4 to spurs and 3 to Man U.

Just my opinion but he’s not improved since those games and feel he’s being carried by the above players I’ve mentioned.

Can’t see him being a first choice in the team once we recruit a right back. He’s not going to get in ahead of Godfrey or Keane at centreback.

Holgate for me is one of the worst right backs I've ever seen. He offers absolutely nothing going forward at all, ever and defensively in that position he gets caught constantly.

However, I think he's a really good CB and when he played in the CM position he done really well. But I can't wait till we get a decent RB.

As he isn't a natural RB I can't say he's rubbish, he's being played out of position and when in his natural positions he's excellent.

So we just have to put up with it for now.

I want him to at least try to attemp to pass it forward.

Smit666 Iwobi is up there as one of the worse players I’ve ever seen in a blue shirt. And I’ve seen some bad ones over the years. We certainly got our keks well and truly pulled down by Arsenal over him.

Gingerdan Holgate didn't play against Spurs and keane and Godfrey played in the other games you mention so as a 4 they are all culpable for letting in or not letting in goals along with the rest of the team.
Hes not a right back I agree but for me he's a better option than anything else we have.
Last season Holgate was arguably our best CB got injured had no preseason and is now working his way back to where he was last season.
Blue John understands whilst some fans just need another scapegoat not Davies is playing well.

All about opinions nothing to do with a scapegoat.
Godfrey and Keane have been really good and seem to be improving game by game.
Holgate hasn’t been really good and at the minute doesn’t seem to be improving, if anything he’s playing worse than last year - I’m sure Carlo will improve him, but like with Tom Davies it won’t be a quick fix.

Wouldn’t say Holgate is currently the best option at rightback as surely Godfrey at rightback would be a better option than Holgate as Godfrey reads the game well and has bags of pace.
