He got shown up big time, he did grow into it but that header in the 80th minute on the edge of our box..??Some of you are being utter ****s about Sanchez. Nowhere near as bad as you’re making out.
We had no other option as Aurier would have gone today if he’d have started against their front three who would have targeted him. Maybe Poch just felt it was horses for courses today knowing we’d get quite a few decisions go against us for the full 90 mins and played it safe.
For me Lamela, Son, Winks and (cough) Sissoko all put in decent shifts, Sissoko’s work rate is phenomenal and seeing him bailing out Sanchez one minute then being up the other end to hit row Z is pretty impressive!
