Disappointing that Tierney doesn't even make the squad for a game we went into with the intention of inverting Partey from the right.
Honestly, even just so that he's happy he shoulda been on the bench for that game. Can't understand why we would want to bin him off — unless we think that Zinchenko can magically stay fit playing every game this season. Who do we play in the CL for rotation? Even assuming Timber was available which he clearly will not be anymore, if we want to rotate, Tierney has to play. That or we only rotate in part and risk having one injury to our defence make the rest play as much as Saka. It's not like he's a bad player. As versatile as Tomi and Timber are, they can't play all spots at once, and Tomi's had several long injuries that make me worried about his long-term fitness.
