If we rest him in this crucial run in it will be hard on other players like Alvarez. I would bring him on in games with 10 or 15 minutes to go and tell him to give it everything.

No room for error boys -get it done.

First item of business Monday morning Pep -start practicing penalties, As sure as eggs are eggs the scum will pull every referee assisted trick in the book to get to that.

Imagine if that had been the rags goal. No chance it would be offside.

We improved when Stones went off . After a shaky start Dias did very well in settling the defence .

I like him but I think he's been run into the ground. A high press is really hard on Phil and Julian. Their stats must be ridiculous.

Give me £1.5 million a year and I'll let you in on my plan

Doku has pace Jack doesn't. He can beat defenders but cannot get clear of them.

We adapt to him and then what- opponents figure out his strengths and weaknesses or gets injured just as they have this season . He ends up like now a peripheral figure in most big games and we are one dimensional having adapted to everything going through him. Sounds like a plan for failure...

Two average games by the player who we now expect miracles from.

Changed the game imo and it gave the team the belief we could find a way to score.

His reflexes and overall agility is much sharper than Eddie.

Oliver wqas shocking . He let so many physical assaults on City players go unpunished.

We dominated them but they had plenty of chances . A really good second half though and Doku swung the balance in our favour imo.

Not sure we have enough on or off the pitch to win this the longer it goes on. Physically and emotionally we looked shot.
