Clearly behind Keane/Holgate as first choice cbs. Him or Mina can be sold in summer for extra funds. Holgate will get more as he is English.
 

He was totally lost today, it’s not his fault though, it’s one thing to ask him to play as a right back when his primary role will be defending, but, tonight he was expected to play a much more attacking role. He is a defender and just doesn’t have the skill set for an attacking full back role.
I can see that Carlo was trying to keep Coleman and Siggurdson healthy for City in the cup, but, with the injuries we currently have, any attempt at rotation is a gamble. He gambled that the team he selected would have enough to beat Burnley, the injury to Pickford cut down his options for a tactical substitution as he could only make two outfield changes.
A bad day at the office, let’s get the City game over and use the international break to regroup.
 
Not a wing back, ridiculous idea to play him further up there today.

It really was a shocking decision by Ancelotti. It completely hamstrung us before a ball was kicked.

Holgate, Iwobi, Gomes really poor against Chelsea.....yet all 3 get a start and we even changed system to accommodate Iwobi on his preferred position

Abysmal management and I expect well better from a quality manager who is so experienced. It looked like a cobbled together hoping it might work
