First season in the PL and the entire team’s been woeful for 2 months straight. People need to remember he’s 4 years younger than Foden, 2 years younger than McAtee and only the same age as Rico. He needs time like most signings do

Literally everything.What exactly has Bobb done? Doing well in preseason? This guy was the 2nd best winger in La Liga last season. What exactly has Bobb done better than him? I am curious.
Absolute nonsense.Literally everything.

Tonight against Forest he played a sublime far post cross towards Haaland in the last moments of the game when coming on late for City. Haaland had been wanting balls like that coming in to him all night.
Currently our best winger, delivers better on the left when given a chance, but Pep plays him mainly on the right due to being our best player option on the right. Given the choice I think he prefers the left, seems to free him up to play a better game.

I was hoping we’d see him earlier and he gave us that little moment when finally on. Doku played well today though. Both have bags of potential.Tonight against Forest he played a sublime far post cross towards Haaland in the last moments of the game when coming on late for City.

So you're saying he should have played instead of Doku, okTonight against Forest he played a sublime far post cross towards Haaland in the last moments of the game when coming on late for City. Haaland had been wanting balls like that coming in to him all night.

No I am not saying that. They both deserve a chance to show what they can do Savinho has played a lot more than Doku due to his availability this season. A rest for Savinho was fair and see what Doku can bring. Doku played ok and scored a good goal.So you're saying he should have played instead of Doku, ok
Savinho will have a better career than Doku though as Savinho is the better player overall.
In your opinion, they are both good players, so why turn it into a dualNo I am not saying that.

My original comment didn’t mention Doku as I was commenting on the Savio thread, you brought up Doku in response to my comment.In your opinion, they are both good players, so why turn it into a dual
You said best wingr, so I guess Doku isn't a wingerMy original comment didn’t mention Doku as I was commenting on the Savio thread, you brought up Doku in response to my comment.

You must have missed the couple of belting balls Doku put across the 6 yard box in the 2nd half. As well as assisting and scoring a belting goal. Not a dig at Savio either as that kid has also got itTonight against Forest he played a sublime far post cross towards Haaland in the last moments of the game when coming on late for City.

Dokus best position is LW.
And Savios best is RW. He is a Mahrez like player.
They are both at their best as cut inside wingers.
Classical wingers have pretty much died in football.
On Savio, im not at all worried when some performances are dips, thats normal, he has time and clearly the potential.

If pep continues to play Grealish on LM then it might be something to see what will hapeen if Savio LW + Grealish LM. Their attributions should work out together on paper. Especially against teams a little bit open in back. given how many games we have and Doku's injury history we will have opportunities to try these out.Dokus best position is LW.

In an ideal world he'd have been eased in like all new players. We've had to use him more than Pep probably wanted to initially. Now we have players back the pressure can be taken off him and he can settle into the side. He's a talented player and very young so he's going to be inconsistent but the signs are positive - just needs that first goal.

Some fans just like to criticize certain players regardless of their performance.
You can have your favourite player and that's okay. But please stop criticising other when they are down.
ALL of them needs our support.
A fellow Blues at Lisbon was walking out after we went 4-1 down and asked me to come along. I refused and stayed back to support the team until the final whistle.
If you only support a player/team when they are winning, then maybe football is probably not for you.
When Oscar is back, and Echeverri arrives, we will have a range of options out wide, which has the added benefit of Foden and Grealish more central, permanently. I always thought that a central midfield of Rodri, Grealish and Phil had enormous potential.
Good that Echeverri is a pure 10 and has nothing to do with the wings. It actually adds more benefit to put Grealish and Foden on the wings.When Oscar is back, and Echeverri arrives, we will have a range of options out wide, which has the added benefit of Foden and Grealish more central, permanently.
