To be honest judging by many fans reaction to him during his time and now he's leaving, would you honestly say most city fans connected with him in their hearts? Surely it works both ways. If some can view his time at the club as merely someone who served the club well in winning trophies and...

I don't think there's anymore that can be added from both sides of his view as a player that haven't been said already. For me his highs far outweighed any of the lows(misses). One memory of his is the 17/18 season where he scored 3 late game winners consecutively in the same week against...

Not to derail the thread further but would just like to add this last thing on the sterling point. There was an unnecessary disparaging comment even if jokingly about sterling when discussing alvarez that led to this back and forth, yes it's all opinions but when that is happening even on...

I was one of those who wasn't that enamoured with his signing as some were and thought the hype needed to be calmed a bit but the season is done now and he played some part no matter how small in the league win. What anyone else can do now is hope that the form/confidence he seemed to be gaining...

For villa he played in a more counter attacking team meaning he normally received the ball from deep during a transition play running at defenders on the back foot or retreating. You can see how that will be totally different to receiving the ball outwide against a deep block. Of course there'll...

Some seem to be conflating the sterling that we've seen the past year or so as who he has always been as a player or most of his career. A player who seems indecisive, can't seem to carry or dribble the ball for much distance without losing control, poor touch/control etc. I won't disagree that...

I don't know what's there to be baffled about. While I don't think he was brilliant or is playing anywhere close to his best, he still played a role in an impressive victory against a good side and considering his last few months or so of course people will be positive. Looking at his...

He's running rodri and bernardo close for players of the season so far. I don't know what's happened to him this season but long may it continue.

Once certain narratives takes over for certain players, all objective analysis seems to go out the window. You say something enough times it becomes true to you even if there's little to no basis for it. It's like some have purposefully chosen to forget that he was a consistent feature during...

The thing is I actually feel a bit for him, coming into a new team with teammates much superior to what you previously had, in a new system requiring more discipline in positional play than you've ever been used to and under a manager more meticulous and demanding than any you would ever play...

For the sake of argument, seeing as whenever he gets any form of criticism his chance created/key passes stats gets used as a rebuttal of how good he's been. A stat which by its definition doesn't take into account the quality of the chance created. Let's take a look at a more reflective(though...

I wasn't that fussed about his signing but it is what it is and the price tag means nothing as long as he improves the squad and helps the team in achieving its goals. He's done ok so far all things considered as its taken some time for new signings to bed into the team and how pep wants them to...

While I agree that he came into circumstances that gave him little to no room to make any impact with how negative the tactics were. He wasn't any different in the two friendly games before the tournament where he started and the team looked just as uninspiring so I'm not getting the excuses...

Before I start I would like to say I believe him to be a good player who can possibly go up another level especially if the move were to happen in this city side with pep coaching him. Although I don't personally believe he's currently better than any in his position at the club right now the...

It's shiny new toy syndrome. No doubt he's a talented player but how high he's rated by some here is certainly baffling. His best attribute is being able to dribble and carry the ball well, an attribute perfect for a counter-attacking side that exploits teams who commit. That and good passing...
