there is nothing negative in having the best player in the world in his position (if we did). paul mcgrath is one of my fave players ever.
however, the idea that missing a cb is some kind of an excuse for the shitshow 10h has presented is laughable. have we missed him? sure. should we have coped better without him? undoubtedly.
the fact is that it is the easiest position on the field to cover, both as a player and as a manager. even luke shaw can play cb competently and he's, apparently, a moron.
obviously, it is better to have a world class cb pairing than not. if you have to compromise somewhere, though....

evans is not competent. however, we could have set up better against palace to make it less obvious.
