In the 21st round of the English Premier League, "Manchester City" hosted "Chelsea" and won 3:1. In this competition, our compatriot Abduqadir Husanov participated in the debut game and became the first Uzbek player to play in the Premier League. In the first four minutes, a member of our national team committed a foul that led to a goal, and in the next situation he was punished with a yellow card.
After the match, Jamie Redknapp, an expert of "Sky Sports", "Daily Mail" and a former player of "Liverpool" shared his thoughts about our 20-year-old defender.
"I spoke to Guardiola before the game and said that it was a risk to leave him in the starting line-up compared to Marmus. Given the pressure on the central defender in such a competition, it was clear that the debut would be more difficult.
Abduqadir is only 20 years old, he recently arrived in England. In addition, the team was playing without confidence in defense. Joining the club would have been much easier last season. But now it is not like that. I think Pep made a mistake by throwing him straight into the fray. Perhaps the Spanish specialist will admit that he made a mistake.
True, after the first mistakes, Husanov improved later. But overall, it was a rough day for him. I hope that this will not harm the long-term prospects of the player from Uzbekistan. At the same time, he learns a lesson and comes back stronger. Unfortunately, the first 15-20 minutes were very difficult for Abduqadir. That's why I felt a little sorry for him," said the former English midfielder.
