Defence is more secure with Lescott partnering Kompany.

Nastasic is good, but doesn't read the game or anticipate the ball as well as Lescott. Besides, Lescott can head the ball far better and is Proactive rather than reactive, hence the return of clean sheets and composure in the defence.

Please do not tamper with the defence again Roberto, this is the best central defence partnership at the club. Nastasic is one for the future.
