Glenn Hoddle (former England coach) has slammed David Luiz after his display in last night's game against Barcelona, likening the Brazilian to “an 8-year-old who hasn’t been coached.”

Though David Luiz played as a substitute,he was nutmegged twice by Luis Suarez who scored 2 goals to put Barcelona up late in the game.

Hoddle claimed the €50 million signing from Chelsea should have done much better regardless of the fact he was not fully fit going into the game.
“Even if you’re not 100 per cent fit you can’t show that lack of intent,he is the last man on the pitch when Suarez picks up the ball and starts running at him. He realises he is the last man and the very last thing you should do when you’re the last man is jump in. You bide time for your team to get around you".

“Instead he does what an 8-year-old who hasn’t been coached does: he tries to win it by putting both of his feet together. But when he does that he can’t move anywhere. Suarez nutmegs him again.”

David was his club’s hero in the previous round, heading the extra-time equaliser which made them qualify for the quarter-finals at Chelsea’s expense but his form defensively has been questioned on many occasions, and Hoddle added that he has never been convinced by David Luiz.

“For me he is a liability at the back, and he always has been. You have to find a place for him in midfield or even at right-back,” he continued.
“He’s a footballer who likes to play in the playground when there is no shape to the game. He is a talent but that’s not what top football is about.”
