I know this post may get me a lot of stick but I have to say Davide Zappacosta has been doing well for us recently. He has been impressive in the Europa league games. Against Bate he was so impressive, he controlled the right side. He is improving defensively and if he becomes reliable then may be he can push Azpi. Obviously Azpi got leadership qualities that makes it even harder. But fair play to Zappa, unlike Moses his been pretty good.
Also Emerson is quality, he has impressed me every time he plays. He is so good on the ball and the Sarri tactics suits him perfectly. He interlinks with our attackers naturally and his getting better defensively. It's hard for him at the minute because Alonso is doing well but if his levels drop then you know Emerson is waiting. He was so highly regarded in Italy before his injury, hopefully we can hear the fruits of his potential.
Good on Andreas Christensen, despite his father's gob he put his head down and played a good game too. It's tough for him at the moment but he has to remember when his chance comes he has to take it.

Think you’re looking too much into it, it was really poor opposition. Play Zappacosta against a better side and he struggles. I do like Emerson though.

I agree with KingFrank. Emerson has impressed me considerably more in the games they've played together than Zappacosta, but the opposition has not been very strong.

Sarri said that Alonso is best left-back in Europe so I think Emerson will struggls tk get game time in PL.
Though he will probably play most games in Europa league.
