Anyone can miss a pen, so I won’t hold that against him. I am more annoyed at Haaland not taking it.

That being said, I am far from convinced by what I have seen of him so far. He’s had good games but I think he’s had more average to bad ones. Everything seems a bit rushed and chaotic around him. I hope he’s just settling in but at the moment, he looks like another one of these good player, not great player signings we have been consistently purchasing in recent years. I don’t look at him and think ‘wow, he’s an improvement over Jesus and Alavarez’. The clock is ticking.
Jesus? Fucking hell

I get what you are saying but hopefully next season with better players around him he will flourish. He’s been good so far but not as brilliant as some seem to think.
 
Some of the comments here are laughable. He’s been a breath of fresh air since we signed him. We were on a good run while Haaland was out, as soon as he’s fit Marmoush gets fucked off against Southampton. It’s bad management.
 
I think he is a very good player in a very average city side.. the season everyone has played badly which makes it even harder to stand out.. there have been so many games where iv watched him make perfect runs and we decide to pass sideways.. if he was in the team with prime kdb or when we were quick on the counter with sane for example he would be amazing.. unfortunately these tactics of sideways pass to death does not suit him, same as it doesn’t suit haaland. He looks average if not below
 
Plenty of encouraging signs for his career at City but still not enough to get ahead of Haaland in the long term. Was a little unfortunate with his penalty
 
Another poor signing. I wonder why we signed him as he is more counter attack player than a suitable Pep system player !
 
Not convinced but its early days.

Poor penalty and didn't do anything else all game. Seems to be like Jesus, lots of energy but little to show for it.
 
He’s stopped running in behind which is so concerning. His debut against Chelsea was unreal. Everything done at pace and with urgency and eagerness to get in behind their defence.

Not now. Now dropping deep and trying to create that way. That’s not his strength at all.

Hope next season sees a massive change in how to approach games.
 
is it the players like OM that are the problem or a system of play that doesnt bring the best out of a few of them?
