Honestly, I don't trust any of our CB pairings at the moment. It's almost a case of choosing the right one specifically for the game. Zouma-Christensen, statistically, is the worst pairing, I think.
Given the shady business that goes on in football sometimes, I won't rule out the ban being overturned completely until we know for sure.
Until then, we just need to make sure we don't fuck any of our next 3 games (HA!) before the Liverpool and Wolves games!
IF City's ban sticks, then this 5-point gap over Wolves in 6th could be very important. They go to Sheffield United in midweek, which won't be easy but not that we will make life easy for ourselves either...
Pulisic is so much like Hazard till the point he is even hesitant to take shots! Had 2 good chances late on to shoot and potentially score but didn't do it.
3 of his 4 goals since the restart have come after fouls on Pulisic.
The other was because of Abraham (IIRC) and Pulisic was also involved in that incident.
Willian needs to get Pulisic a present if he gets a new contract...
Just like against Villa and West Ham, Watford are ignoring Kante because they know he is clueless when it comes to passing forward. And Kante himself doesn't want to take any risk and is just passing sideways and backwards. FUCK THIS SHIT!!!
Forget Emerson. If people want to know why we need to replace Alonso, it's games like today's. Sarr is a decent player but he is no Robben or Ribery etc and yet, Lampard doesn't even trust him to do the job on him and has to play a RB in his position.
