We need a right back like zabaleta
How is Alvarez "excellent" as a 10? He is a major part of why we lack control in games against half decent opposition. His passing is sub par. 1st touch is a tackle, and generally ghosts games. He may have several goals and assists this season, but his inclusion in the side as a 10 makes us a worse side. The sooner this experiment ends, the better.
Doku is such a good player
You could see how whenever he got the ball the defenders were fearing him
Every time Doku gets on the ball the crowds expects him to do something
Also something underrated
He takes care of the ball he doesn’t lose as much as people think
Agree with the analysis
And even though we lost 4 points in the last 2 games, I'm not disappointed (well a little because of the hatred for Liverpool)
City is still the best in the league
el mejor jugador de la cancha es Julian Alvarez , el problema lo tienen sus compañeros que no le pasan la pelota, ayer estaba muy bien posicionado y entre lineas y todas las pelotas eran para Erling o DOku, silva, Rodrigo re comilones al igual que foden. son muy envidiosos y no juegan para el equipo, julian Alvarez es el unico que juega para el equipo, Sin JULIAN NO SON NADA
Se nota que no sabes nada de futbool dedicate a otra cosa
Well when Bernardo leaves, this team is genuinely f 😮
One thing I learned ur lack of courage to call these players and board out, this team is degraded all thanks to those smarty pants who walked away from Rice deal for 10-15 millions just to look cool, just look at how pivotal Rice is Arsenal success, they are no targeting toney, neto, Douglas Luis, and what this club is doing absolute nothing
Why isn't any Mancity player learning to give through passes? We miss KDB. Haaland was in a lot of promising positions but players were not raising their heads to find him. They have to do better finding Haaland
We need Paquetta
City has to be ready to do without KDB. These injuries at his age, once they start they never stop
We have two must win games. Spurs and Villa games are must win games for us
Alvarez has not lived up to his potential, he's very inconsistent and, misses far too many chances.
Doku is amazing!!
Bernardo is arguably the best player regardless of his age💙🔥
We need a natural no. 10
Attacking Defender
I'm getting sick of these lost opportunities. VAR will be the death of us. Doku did exactly what he needed to do. We needed to have someone to make an effort to get in position to put those crosses in the box. Hopefully KDB won't give to little to late. Don't wait to have change forced on you. Let's get someone in now! You called it Steven ,, Alvarez is playing too much.
Kovacic, Nunez and Philipps do not really help Pep regarding Alvarez's management (through their average performances).
DOKU SMOKED TRENT BERNADO CLASS HAALAND GOALS THE NORM AKE HAD MO SALAD IN HIS POCKET CITY SHOULD OF WON BUT IM OK WITH DRAW SEASON IS LONG
I think people need to understand its not every through ball that City players will make. Against a team like Liverpool, they have more firepower so we try to make sure the game doesn't become chaotic. The chelsea match is a clear example of what happens when the game is chaotic. City will lose. And unfortunately that means missing some key passes. The player who should have made some through passes was Alvarez and he was missing throughout. And despite all that we should have won comfortably by 3 goals if the chances we had were taken. Thats how good the team is
Alvarez had a lacklustre performance but that doesn't mean we should slander him. Thats so reactionary. He has been a bright spark for the first 11 games so far. No one can replace KDB and yet Alvarez has made sure that we still remain the best team and thats taking into account the fact that he is a young player in a role that he has not played before. And yet Pep thinks he is better behind haaland than Foden and the stats and eye test back the fact that he makes things happen. Have some faith ffs
