I was surprised that Ake did not start today. TBH. He clearly gave more confidence to the wingers ahead of him, no matter Raz or Jack.

No disrespect to Josko but I see him more like a pure center back. Not enough support for the wingers, defensively or offensively. Ake at least offers enough cover and good width, and occasionally offers something forward. I wonder if we can see both of them start and Ake wide.

Yeah Josko was caught sleeping a few times today, generally he’s been fine though. Not a bad start.

Only because we win everything. After Pep goes, it might have a different vibe!

City fans have always given youth a chance though. It’s all we had for decades!

Hmm. Pity Swales didn't give our youth a chance they deserved. And i only mention that because he fucked up what could have been something so exciting.

The Michael Hughes sale still pisses me off. Mostly because it was the first time I was old enough to realise that we’d sold a talent unnecessarily.

I was probably 11 or 12, but it was the first time I felt anger towards Swales.

There’s probably a thread in pinpointing when you were first pissed off by Swales.

Mate, I'd be writing a very long post every time Swales pissed me off! He made so many bad decisions during his tenure, so much so that the scars are still visible, even to this day.

That’s why it should be the first moment he pissed you off. Everyone would have a certain moment.

I was fortunate that my story was late on in his ownership.

I realised Swales was a **** soon as Luton relegated us in 83 but he had his meddling moments before then. Thinking back to that era is like reliving a bad dream, and I'd rather not.

Very exciting player, about time we had a bums off seats type of player on the wing

His goal was Sane-esque. Brilliant.

 

[JOGAMIGMOG]

Great player this kid. May free up Grealish to play inside in a free role similar to his Villa days. No bad thing in my eyes.

 

[Mickeyhoohaa]

Good to see we've finally got a player who will do the griddy as a celebration. We've been stuck in past for far too long.

 

[Giovinco]

His ability to beat players from a starting position is amazing. Great to have that quality to be direct in our squad.
