Worked extremely hard today not his best game in terms of quality but the way United Park the bus makes it difficult to feed balls through consistently in the way he can, just like it's hard for Haaland to have much involvement when they put nine players in the box defendimg and play hoof ball.

games like this are generally set up better for players like Foden to have an effect

Kev never stopped working hard today that's good enough for me
 
Always find it difficult to criticise Kev but he was poor against the Rags , probably still feeling his way back to full match fitness , maybe rest him against Copenhagen we need him fresh for the Dippers.
 
Worked hard. Not his day, but he shapes games with his movement and ability to both dominate and create space.
 
I reckon the 90+ minutes midweek took a lot out of him, as he still isn’t fully match fit, so can’t really criticise his performance today, especially as he still worked very hard for the team.

When he is back up to speed someone is going to get a real spanking in the league (a la Luton).
 
Even though he wasn’t quite at it, the team is always better with him on the pitch.
 
below his high standards, however that has got to be the norm after being out so long, adrenaline would of got him through his first matches back, he looked a bit jaded today, 45 mins on wednesday max
 
Nothing much came off in terms of delivery, but some credit for that has to go to their defenders and the shape they maintained. However, much like Bernardo, and Rodri, de Bruyne’s ability to rotate positions and drift across the pitch ultimately brought on the tiredness in their defence that allowed space to appear.
