Because the situation desperately required a centre half but not a deep centre midfielder & at centre half, you don't have to leg it up and down the pitch for 90 mins, just mainly be alert in one area, so it obviously won't be as much of a problem if you are a bit tired.
And of course there was the option not to use Yaya in a job where part of his game would be tracking back. If he was determind that Yaya should play, then have some athletic cover behind him rather than expecting him to do something he doesn't even do when he is fit, but instead of that we get Nasri.
He fucked up.
Why people are even attempting to pretend he didn't, is a bit baffling. It's like a religion or a political party defending their ideals rather than a bog standard football discussion.
So what about the two own goals ? Joe Hart virtually threw one in his own net and Gaz Baz finished better than Van Pussy ever could.
What do you want me to say about them ?
Say what you want pal , feel free !
