One of my best mate is part of Gary Rowett’s coaching staff that he takes with him to his managerial posts. He’s due to start with him at Leicester next week. I’ve told him not to spoil Mukasa and that I want weekly updates on how good he really is. I’ll keep you informed ;)

Been getting quite a lot of pelters from Leicester fans with his attitude and approach to things. He isn’t impacted by the relegation so probably not as invested but hopefully he just sees out the season there and can get a stronger loan move next year.
Followed him there from a distance, looks like he started off on fire, got dropped for no reason, and did nothing since then.
Not a surprise that would drain your motivation/confidence and I doubt the dressing room environment there is particularly nurturing, but it would have been nice if he could have stood up and been counted a bit more.
Hopefully a good learning experience though.

Stats can be very misleading, very poor performance from him tonight.
He has to change his attitude or he will become another Sancho.
He cannot stroll around the pitch,which is a trait he was also showing at City before his loan.
He has a talent, he needs to harness it with work rate ,if he doesn't he be drifting down to a lower level .

Relegated tonight.
The stats aren't misleading, they cover a general trend rather than what you are doing which is singling out a one game performance.
Its a fact, he has been an excellent creator for them.
I said nothing about his attitude, but as a 10, he is doing his creativity job.
Even in today's game I saw he made 4 chances.
I don't think he played badly one or two things did'nt come of for him his passing needs to improve it was alittle off but he's only 18 and it can't be an easy place to be at the moment .But the rest of your post could'nt agree more on 40 minutes he lost the ball and jogged back as hull broke forward that's gonna have to change

can't see him being city ready for a while but he is still very young
Doesn’t look like my mate will be there long enough to comment on him haha
Hi. Leicester fan here. I’ve watched a lot of Mukasa and haven’t been impressed at all. He slows the play down and isn’t composed on the ball at all. Gets outmuscled and is poor defensively.
I know he’s been playing in a poor side and is probably low on confidence - but he won’t be making it as a Man City player. Hope he proves me wrong of course and he’s still young but I don’t get the hype.

He has only played 851 minutes for Leicester but I think this youtube highlight video does a good job showing his strengths.
I think he can be a great 8 for us.
His weakest part is defensively but he is willing to make a tackle and challenge.
But his passing is levels above, he is always looking to get teammates involved, with precision.
He will go to the top with this passing range and he can use his weak foot too!

Decent player but wont be premier league standard
Have to agree to disagree.
18 year old doing this stuff show very high potential.
Premier league standard? He will be that at a minimum.
Im hoping he can be City standard, and I think he can be.
