I thought last night was one of the first games that Pep’s usage of him made sense. I don’t think it works as well with Doku or Grealish on the left, but it clicked with Foden for sure. Gvardiol being so wide and advanced lets the left attacker stay really central and close to Haaland whilst...

Absolutely deserved

The kid is class

Kavanagh you bent ****

Not a fucking chance Grealish shits out of that tackle

Yes the signings were shit and it was a weird window but we had both FFP and the arrivals of Txiki & Soriano imminent.

Clickbait. RB Leipzig and Salzburg actually played each other in the europa a few seasons ago.

A shame for Laporte because that wasn’t always the case. He was generally lauded on here as the best CB in the league if you go back a few years, and his knee injury the reason for our collapse in the 19-20 season. Maybe he wasn’t the same after that & lost his spot the season after to...

This “rule” where the assistant refuses to put his flag up even when it is an offside is fucking laughable. What is the **** actually there for? To actually then flag whilst stones went down quite literally added insult to injury. Wanker, as was the referee.

That’s what he needs to be doing to fill the KDB void. Great performance.

Yeah but the Everton fans started crying about the foul so the ref had to do as he was told.

Even if we used him in the exact same role we did Ake last season (basically a LCB of a three) he would be fine imo.

Not sure why he couldn’t have swapped the two of them today? During the last 10 we actually had Gvardiol making runs off the shoulder of their RB, with Grealish sat in at LB. Wtf?

Why are both the fullbacks so far up the pitch all game?? If we had proper attacking fullbacks I could understand but Walker is not, and Gvardiol is a CB.

No way. The fella was a free transfer and saved us from going down in 2007 with them goals at Boro and Newcastle.

Both the games v Napoli in 17/18 were fantastic. Barca 16/17 as has been mentioned. Enjoyed the comeback win v PSG a couple of seasons ago too when they had just signed Messi.

Dias always looks better when he has Stones in the defence next to him

Completely agree although without knowing what Gundo was thinking, I don’t think we can completely hang city for that one. There’s no guarantee he would have stayed anyway. Nunes has been the biggest fuck up. Kovacic is evidently a squad signing given we were simultaneously chasing Bellingham...

Hope he goes on to prove me wrong but this looks a baffling signing at the minute. Really don’t see what he offers.

Yeah that’s just plain false mate, see below. https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/s/MO4eBONWNZ
