Rico Lewis is simply incredible. Palmer needs to step it up then wel have 3 top level academy players in the squad! The stuff of dreams.
I suspect other academy talents may push in front of him.

Not like haven’t been saying that for weeks either, nice of Pep to finally give him a go….Foden. Every. Week.

I think he's been carrying an injury.

Borges must be getting close nowI suspect other academy talents may push in front of him.
Pep is trying to find a way to create more opportunities as all teams sit back and defend deep against usA great result, funnily enough I thought we were better against Forest but the chances just wouldn't go in. We really could and should have scored six that game.
One worry for me is how easy we are to play through. Bournemouth got behind us a fair few times and gave us some hairy moments. They could easily have scored a couple more. Forest did it once last week and scored. A slight concern.
We know we are risking being attacked down our right but we are creating more clear cut chances now.
Also by putting Foden on the right or Mahrez inside and Walker overlapping as against Leipzig he is creating space and speed, that has been missing
I much prefer this system and when Stones is back it will work even better

I am struggling to understand why Akanji is coming in for stick from some quarters.
I think it was the same when Ake first joined.
To me he has looked composed and calm. His distribution is pretty good and I can’t recall him doing anything stupid so far
It’s his first season in the team and PL.
I would say all in all he’s settled in pretty well despite having had to play with a different CB most weeks and hasn’t let us down.
Cut the guy some slack. He looks a good player to me.

Hopefully we crack a new system and beat the bus parkers. We need to be more cautious against fast counter attacking teams like Liverpool's and the rags though.

Phil’s been weighed down by that extra £3mil a year he dragged his contract talks out for:I think he's been carrying an injury.
I hope Phil is back to form. He put in a very good display yesterday and was much improved on his showing at Notts Forest.

I’m getting more and more convinced that this is Walker’s last season with us. He’s been fantastic for 5 years but his level has noticeably dropped.Have no idea why Walker came on at the end, other than to bring on my migraine.
10 minutes of poor football from him.

Well said. Yet another solid performance and reads the game so well.I am struggling to understand why Akanji is coming in for stick from some quarters.
