I don't know about atrocious. I think this forum goes too far in saying how far Licht has declined. It's not like the guy was ever the best technical player even in his prime. He still runs up the field, overlaps like a madman. Still smashes junk into the box. Still irritates opponents. We would all still trust him over MDS.

Oh I would trust him in a heartbeat over De Sciglio, but I would not trust him to start any games if we had someone better. The guy is past it, and is a massive liability defensively and offers nothing in attack anymore. There's the occasional game against bad opposition where he plays well, like against Cagliari, but if he actually has to create something against good defenders or defend against a real striker he gets overrun. Usually all his moves end up blocked over the line or him getting dispossessed. A team vying to win the Champions league simply should not have players of his level in their starting XI.

He had a good game. His cover tackle at 2-1 was incredible and stopped a clear goalscoring opportunity by making up a huge amount of yards and reading the play perfectly. He also covered a lot of dangerous defensive situations with Laxalt and Taarabt.
He probably shouldn't be a starter for us anymore. But he looks by far the best option at RB out of our current options.

He is such an asshole, thank God he is playing for us, otherwise, I'd never stand a personality like his! Most of his yellow cards he gets from arguing with linesmen.
