Reading through the threads here though, everyone needs a rest in midfield according to people. :) I'd say because Bernardo didn't play against Leicester and was subbed off on Tuesday, he is a definite starter on Saturday. I know he played all of Portugal's games but you don't want to risk KdB...

Exactly. Bad finishing, especially by his recent standards - hell yes. Greedy, fuck no.

He obviously won't though.

Yeah I love the man to bits but Rodri's thread would be a carcrash after such a performance.

It's cool that we have a player currently who can keep scoring from such unlikely positions. Used to be De Bruyne with a screamer or two but he stopped with that, and others are incosistent too. Would be cool if he'd save some for the Champions League mind.

His last was against Swansea and he had a good game actually. Against Cheltenham he was a bit shit, yeah, although that was also overblown a bit (could have easily finished the game with a goal and an assist). I think in general Pep doesn't trust him that he can do the same as Zinchenko or...

Even before his goal it was a complete performance already, so deserved that goal.

When he's not that influential in attack (although wasn't bad by any means, his pass to Sterling right at the start was brilliant), he more than makes up for it defensively in recent times.

Looked a casual save live but seeing it in the slow mo replay, wow he really had to get his hand down quick and strong.

Really strong performance from the big lad.

I'm still unsure if there is a realistic chance to offload Mendy. Also, it would probably make no sense, as his resale value is about zero, while at least on paper, his skillset and unique style (in terms of what the other squad options offer) still might have some good impact on us. And we saw...

He is obviously full of shit. What is more problematic, however, is the fact that in the past he has been kind of an unofficial mouthpiece for Aguero or at least someone being very close to his camp. So maybe this is just a 'negotiation tactic' of sorts or trying to wind up the public / the fans...

Thought it was a clear foul honestly, but we were due a break after the manhandling of Jesus or Aubameyang's tackle on Dias was allowed, too. And anyway, as you said it was a thing of beauty.

Yeah his work before Jesus' chance should have received more praise here. Even Cancelo couldn't have done it better. :)

Dias said he is funny 'in his own way' and Stones agreed, so based on that he might be a bit of a weirdo as Ederson. :D

The fact he scored a goal and add to that his workrate even in the last minutes makes these 'bad' performances much more bearable, what a player! But yes, it also kind of proved why having him currently in the front three suits him better for the time being.

Think he's been fucking excellent again, not even sure about the comments on his finishing. He took that chance with his left brilliantly and missed by a margin. It was a chance that even Aguero would only score 5 out of 10 or so. But his constant dropping back caused absolute havoc and he...

I found the crticisim a bit weird even within the match, had he not scored that worldie, it would still have been a good performance. Sure he was helped by Bernardo, whereas the Foden - Sterling partnership lacked that edge, but still. Also, not soure about those comments that he will be gone in...

So, so fucking good. His best game in a City shirt yet? Ah yeah, the Chelsea bossing is a good shout above.

Outrageous sounds a tad optimistic to me, but it definitely improved and he can find the right man from time to time on the opposite left flank. Either he's worked on it since his early days or simply it is a confidence thing too.
