I would have said Phil before I thought of Bernie.

Sorry no
sorry no player comes close to ffs…..I would have said Phil before I thought of Bernie.
It is a different game for us.
The times we are exposed is when someone in possession loses the ball. We have the ball constantly, and the players play high. Ball retention is vital. Match of the Day wants mavericks - Le Tissier for the 21st century - but it cannot happen if your role is primarily to keep the ball. Whether it's the game that Jack loves to play is another matter. When you are winning trophies, and game after game, nobody talks about it. The moment points are dropped, everyone does.

Agreed. Foden undoubtedly has a great touch but he does actually miss control it a fair bit in games for someone so naturally gifted. Mahrez was on another level. Grealish and Bernie also have superb first touches.Sorry no

No one had a first touch like Edin.
Erling can give him competition some days! Was weird with him as if he started well his touch could be good but if his first couple were shite it carried on all gameNo one had a first touch like Edin.

If he doesn't start today I'd say he's no longer a first choice starter at City. Needs to step up big time on what he's done so far this season.

Well he’s been injured for the most of the season so hasn’t really had chance to do anything has he? It’s clear he’s at his best when given a run of games but if he’s not given the chance to actually play and get fit (Gareth Shitgate was hardly going to help with that…) then it’s exceptionally harsh on him. Doku has shown good flashes but I was unimpressed with his cameo vs Arsenal where he kept losing the ball - would much rather Grealish be starting against a side like Brighton.If he doesn't start today I'd say he's no longer a first choice starter at City.

Notwithstanding coming back from injury, it all depends on what tactics Pep wants on the wings. Doku and Grealish offer different skills.

Not starting today either. I'd say hes going to have to fight his way back into the side. Might not be a bad thing.Nonsense.
