He played the ball to Rose that gave us the winner. For me he did his job yesterday when he came on which is great! But I am also not going to get carried away and say he is all of a sudden a starting 11 member because I just don't see 90 minutes of him being all that effective. As I stated in the transfer window he is a good bench/squad player for sub appearances at best and yesterday was a good example of that.
But please people don't act like yesterday was some worldy performance. His pass to Rose was simple, if he botched that this board would have a different tone. His long field cross to Son I believe near the end of the game on a counter was also something he had to do. A simple flighted ball that 99% of professional footballers should be able to hit.
So in short yes he helped us yesterday so good on him. But be weary of those saying he should start cause people, this is the Sissoko that has been playing in the PL for years. 90 minutes of him week in and week out will leave you asking for more heroin.
It's quite simple - He's providing more than Son at the moment which is why he should start, I'm not here to score points, i'd rather we go with what's best for the team.
