In short: no we haven't defended fine.
individual errors are mostly variance, although that goon Lovren does make more than most.
Even though Mig does make an error v Norwich, that ****house Russel Martin probably scores 5% of the time in that spot.
For the Gestede goal, Hutton, on the stretch and without looking plays a perfect ball across. Was Can ball watching, yes, and is our defence too error prone, again, yes, but we are not conceding a drastic number of chances nor chances to make chances.
I would be a lot more worried if your defence was structurally unsound and am more worried by our seeming inability to create enough chances - although I think having the second best striker in the league back will mitigate that a bit
