Too slow in possession all over the park, no bite upfront and apologetic defending. If we pick anything up trophy-wise this season it’ll be by luck as much as design. We’re just a busted flush I’m afraid.
We need to shake the squad up and get some fire back. I’ve said it a few times but Fernandinho is the best defensive midfield player this league has ever seen in my opinion and should play there regardless. He’s not a centre back but could play there in an emergency IF he has a quality centre back next to him.
we’re so predictable and, if I’m honest, boring at times this season. Maybe a bit of complacency and definitely some players that simply aren’t good enough. For me, Gundogan is a squad player and should be used as such, Mahrez is far too inconsistent and Mendy is nowhere near the level he needs to be both fitness and ability-wise.
Laporte and Sane can’t come back soon enough and I think things will look differently then. In the meantime, Foden has to play, he’s energetic, creative and above all, he cares. Why can’t Garcia get a game at centre back? He looks a class act and despite being young, he hasn’t been troubled much when he’s played, partly because of the opposition and partly i suspect, because fucking Fernandinho would play in front of him!!
We can get something out of this season. It might not be silverware, but experience in some young players would go a long way to appease a lot of people. If we don’t try that, nothing will change until we spunk 200 million on why could potentially be another couple of Mendy’s. Sorry to single him out a couple of times but he’s fucking gash and I honestly can’t remember a good game he’s had for us.
