52 | Oscar Bobb - 2023/24

[oldius]

He will soon be starting a lot of games, IMO. He potentially has it all.

 

[Crooked_rain]

It's not just the quick feet, it's the speed of thought in that moment to finish like that. It really was the only way to finish it but 99.9% of players in that moment just try to hit it goalwards and probably straight into the keeper.

To have the speed of thought to realise the situation and possibility, then the composure and feet to pull it off....I don't think you can teach that.

Hats off to whoever scouted this lad in Norway as a teenager.

That goal reminded me of Messi. And before any giddy **** jumps down my throat I'm not saying he'll be as good as the Argentine. But he's an exceptional young player.

He's already better ;)

 

[MCFCFanTX]

Going to the top. Unique set of skills. Great feet and balance.

Pep trusts this boy 100%, the way he subbed on at a crucial moment like this.

Go and get a goal Pep said

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

It’s not just the control and finish that are impressive, it’s the confidence in himself to make the run in the first place and the confidence in de Bruyne that he will make the pass. There was precious little room for error either way.

Plus, he’s hardly played with KDB.

 

[normskih]

There was some truth to it when we had Sunderland and Stoke in the PL. Moyes's Everton were also leg bruisers to great extent.

Amended that a bit;)

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

is it his first PL goal or first ever goal for City? I would have said he played a few PL games last season but apparently did not even have a sub app either in 22/23...

anyway great finish and a very important one.

media would start the Macheda style hyping up if he were playing for the quiet neighbours now.

Scored against Red Star in Belgrade too.

 

[normskih]

How good is this goal

Great balance and quickness of feet, well done young man:)

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

How good is this goal

Hooohoohoohoooor

 

[Skrastins]

That was filthy goal

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

Mahrez like first touch and incredibly coolness for the finish. The pass by KDB was great but he created the goal without a doubt.

We are not missing Palmer at all the way he has been playing this season.

 

[Magz]

I don't know what kind of laboratory shit is going on in Norway but I'm all for it.

Antonio Nusa's next up

 

[jamesha]

I had really high hopes for Palmer and McAtee but I think Bobb might be turn out to be better than both of them. He has made important contributions in recents matches and Pep chose him to make the difference when trying to win the game.

The wisdom of our management team is often questioned when deciding on pathways for youngsters but they seem to have kept the jewel in the crown. It looks like he will establish himself as an important player by the end of the season.

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Sublimely taken goal against the Barcodes , looks like we have another gem on our hands.
Cole who ??

 

[David Kloppesh]

proper chuffed for the lad

 

[Xhavenjoe]

We are not missing Palmer at all the way he has been playing this season.

I wouldn't mind having both of them.
Not sure why you think its one or the other.

 

[Ric]

Incredible composure for the goal. He’s an outstanding talent, and I think we’re going to start seeing a lot more of him. He’s now an important squad member, rather than just someone who will only feature in the domestic cups.

Many players would have gone down for a penalty…if he hadn’t scored he probably could have had a case for one….it clearly didn’t even cross his mind

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

What a fucking guy
