Kurt Zouma

It was the performance in general. He dominated. Not seen a performance like that from a defender since Luiz against Palace in 2017. 

Should be our first choice moving forward. Even well into next season.

He also wins every header you can win.

Yes it is not only tackle. He was great all game!

Getting back to his pre injury level

To give Zouma credit, he has done well in the last 2 games but pardon me for maybe being cynical, but teams like Watford and Palace suit his game style. I don't trust him at all against the more tricky, pacey kind of attackers.

Yeah, this is the problem. He looks great here but once you put him in against a City or any team that presses well he falls apart. He is kind of like the opposite of AC, where AC is a wimp, he is strong, where he cannot read the game, AC can etc, etc.

Last night I actually gave him MotM in the poll as I love nothing more than the type of tackle he put in on Benteke, however when watching the highlights, the only reason he had to do that was because of his positioning which allowed Benteke in. Further, for the first goal he really needs to be stepping out and closing Zaha down as he has Dave and AC in position either side of him. Kepa and James where obviously more at fault for that goal but Zouma did have some blame as he did look to go then for some reason decided not too.

He's always shit vs united as is christensen.

If we were just going on individual strengths I would play rudiger and tomori against united in the cup to cope with their speed.

Of course that's in the abstract. Given tomori's lack of game time he shouldn't be an option for that game.

So I'd go with zouma and rudiger for the cup final.

May as well play then together from here on out to continue to build understanding.

According to ESPN, Zouma is likely be sold this summer and Mourinho is keen on signing him.

He was not even at fault for the goals. First goal was because Mount could not clear the ball, second goal was Willian RJ and AC doing nothing and third goal was Rüdiger and Jorgi masterclass.

The back line is just shit.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Our backline is crap, but he is our best defender since the break.

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

was quality today, a few very important recoveries.

[killer1257 3,282]

Best CB we have. Rüdiger still very clumsy lol

If we get Rice in I think Zouma should be partnering him until a further upgrade is brought.
