My heart sank when i saw he was being readied to come on yesterday,and as it proved,that feeling was justified.Another woeful Pellegrini decision.
It was the correct decision when he told him to warm up - we were getting joy down the left and Clichy providing a great cross was unexpected - he's not exactly a threat in attack - while Kolarov has been reasonable in patches as an attacking option.
However when Clichy did provide the goal, Pellegrini should have cancelled the substitution immediately. That was his only mistake yesterday, in an otherwise good match for Pellegrini, but it cost us at least a point.
