[Kinkladze 1]

Looked well up for it last night and didn’t put a foot wrong.

Zinchenko being solid is the best we can hope for without an good attacking LB. Been good since he came into the side.

This good attacking fullback doesn't work, we lose control far too easily, Pep's football is all about possession and Zinchenko is the perfect fit. If you haven't noticed, this City turnaround has been since his return.

Zinchenko’s versatility is what’ll help keep him here for a while. Being able to play left back, centre mid and even on the wing is the kinda thing pep likes. Also helps he’s acc fairly decent

 

[Delphinho]

He has really stepped up. Hope we keep him as a backup for a new LB instead of Mendy

He seems to be buying into Dias' clean sheet mentality a lot. It's always the first thing he mentions on social media after a game.

He's very versatile. He slotted into midfield comfortably when Laporte went onto the left side. He keeps it simple and keeps the ball. Two skills that Pep likes.

 

[shemnel]

the overhaul of the system has played into Zinchenko's hands, as he suits the inverted fullback role more than Mendy. and he generally grafts and performs at a very very steady level, he rarely excels or flops, which helps when experimenting with the formation a bit.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

His performances over the last few games has been really good and he looks a much better player in the current system. I noticed last night how many times he headed clearances which I would not have expected him to get.

Hopefully his wife is also happy with Pep's selections and tactics of late.
