I just checked our formation in whoscored.com and found some interesting facts:
1- Our first loss of the season was with Spurs, we had Zaba & Kolarov as our fullbacks.
2- Then we draw with Everton, we played with 3 at the back !
3- Draw with Southampton with 3 at back
4- Lost to Chelsea with 3 at the back .
The conclusion is, we get better result when we play with 4 at backs with Clichy & Sagna starting.
So you base this on these 4 games? Fantastic.
To go by your four games, one of the best games we had was vs Everton. Created loads of chances and missed two pens. Same playing Chelsea when we were far the better side.
Clichy did ok on Monday and scored a goal that even he probably knew nothing about. Hard worker, great pro, but that's it. On the ball pretty poor and some say he defends better than Kolarov. Well, ask Patrick Roberts that question if you're picking games that suite your point.
