Shalllllll… weeeee… stick our fuckin treble up our arse? Shall we stick our fuckin treble up our arse? City! City! City!

Run in Mahrez is back, and we’re going to need him! Excellent today again.

Incredible today.

You’re correct. He definitely didn’t cover himself in glory for their goal. I don’t think he’s ever reaching it if he comes out and reads it correctly (punch at best), but on the other hand, does he stop a header like that from such close range? Not convinced he’s got much chance of effecting...

He certainly has a ceiling when it comes to aiding our attacking play, but his defensive ceiling is far higher than anyone seemed to appreciate when we bought him. Mr Consistency and looking like a truly astute signing - has done for a couple of seasons now.

I couldn’t agree more, and certainly hope my post didn’t read that way?

For all he can be a bit rash sometimes, he doesn’t half bring game changing pieces of defending. I want to see that Stones-Dias tandem back in place. Fantastic defender and leader at the back.

Pep sticks by him and keeps giving him game time. Performances keep improving. Confidence keeps notching up. Goals and assists start to follow. Bloody lovely to see! Jack’s performances weren’t top 5, in the team, any time he played pre-world cup. When half the team came back from Qatar playing...

I wonder how long he’ll stick around here, making runs without players even considering playing him in. I imagine this thread is full of the sentiment.

I think we all know what's just happened there, there's no point even dwelling on it. "Most important of the least important things" mentality required until the next game. Absolutely robbed.

Please don’t say that. I’ll have to give up my season card if I have to watch 90 mins of aimless pointing every other week.

Sadly I’d agree with most of that. Off tonight’s showing though, he’s capable cover for Cancelo’s current standard. That of course is saying nothing.

I’ve seen too many players come in and be garbage first season under Pep, and then go on to become integral, to expect anyone to come in and do it immediately going forward. But I like your optimism! I’m hoping we can claw back the league from Arsenal, but I expected them to wobble before now!

Unfortunately, that’s our issue. When you’re a top 10 side you’ve got matches you’re not expected to win, where players can get minutes without any ramifications. We’ve been fighting on all fronts and it doesn’t leave much room to give players minutes in which they can make mistakes and grow...

It doesn’t happen at many clubs, only those that have established academies. The Spanish clubs have second division sides that allow players to grow whilst maintaining connection with the club. We don’t have that in England, just reserves sides that play other reserve sides and we’ve only...
