Czech Republic v England | Euro 2020 Group Stage

The ability to win a foul is the new stat

First thing Pep will do if we buy Grealish is tell him to pass quicker if he keeps getting fouled it means he's holding onto the ball too long.

Also it invites injuries - see Jack Wilshere


It is effective for a set piece team like England though.

Dive, Saka! Yer made sure yer leg caught the defender's leg, and then the Stevie Starfish swan dive!

If we don't buy a striker, then just play Sterling as a speed striker for City.

His game isn't really that of a winger anymore, closer to like Salah who is also barely a winger and likes to be in the box.

That has worked so well for us before

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

He crossed the ball and it took a bit of a deflection , it was ok

I think we can still give credit to Grealish as he was positive. It was good play by him, even if there was a slight deflection.

 

[Mancity1980]

It wasn’t simulation by Saka, but it did look a bit iffy from the refs angle.

The ability to win a foul is the new stat

Merlin would’ve been at the top of that list. Actually maybe not as he knew how to spin players or avoid being pressed unlike Grealish (still a good player)

 

[super_city_si]

Or Mount. We do look more threatening with width. Not sure how it'll play out against France/Germany though.

Grealish a million times better in this system than mount

 

[Mayor West]

The more I see Grealish the more I'm absolutely baffled how anyone doesn't want him in a City shirt

 

[Blueknows]

Shaw and maguire fucking about then

 

[ShaunMCFC]

Well, you were talking shite about the first shot to start with.

"'Buzzing for him' lol you couldn't wait to drop your dig in earlier.

Is this how you react everytime someone holds a different opinion to yours?

‘Couldn’t wait to drop your dig in’

You need to realise not everything is agenda driven with Sterling, I thought it was pretty well documented he isn’t the best finisher?
