Strange that the most innocuous character in the squad is provoking such strength of feeling.

He currently doesn't look match fit, understandably, and is therefore unlikely to improve this season, unless we suffer a spate of injuries and he's forced to deputize again at left-back for a prolonged period.
 
We missed this guy on the left tonight. Such a valuable player against opponents like West Brom.
 
Even though he was only there for a short time at the end of the Arsenal match he looked so much more composed in a deep midfield position. Would like to see him playing there for a few games with Fernandiho beside him.

Your statement "I think he's fucking shite & I hate watching him play football" would make a great headline next time some "journalist" wants to slag City or Zinchenko and it's freely available here, just like it would be at a game or on the street. You may have grown up but you still have a few things to learn.

It's happened to all of us after all. A rash post on the Internet, and before you know it, it's a headline in a national newspaper. Wise, wise words.
 
Clear to me that Zinchenko studied his opponents, I saw numerous times when he was defending Hudson-Odoi, he knew he was really right footed, and he wanted to go wide and cross, because he would be weak cutting in, and Zinchenko always blocked the wide option, very smart.

Every team needs a back up to the main players.
We all know he is not a no 1 pick but he can come in and do a job for us. Obviously not ideal when we have a weakened defence but with the 4 centre halves we currently have he can fit in if needed.

Who is the no 1 pick at left back?
It should be Zinchenko. He makes us play better football.

For a player so short of 1st team minutes he played great. Ran out of gas the last 10 minutes what is totally understandable.

I'm thinking that Ake and Cancelo are ahead of him.
I like Zinchenko and have no problem seeing him starting. He's had a few injuries lately but I think he's well worth keeping.

How many years ago was that. Should have been shipped out in the windows since.

He's papering over a huge issue at LB. Nothing against him, he played well today but doesn't change the fact he's not what we need.
