Although I was rather frustrated with Flapianski this weekend, after looking at the result more closely I also feel that the defense needs to carry a good portion of the blame as the other team did score 5 goals; two of which were on a better keeper. As much as I like the German duo we are being linked with, players like Mexes or Chiellini would add both talent and experience. The talent is needed to fix the hole in our back 4 but the experience is needed to get the other three defenders working well and together.
