27 | Matheus Nunes - 2023/24

[richards30]

Needs to play more now as there is obviously talent there and the way he drives forward on the front foot is something different to what you currently do. I think he`s trying too hard currently when he gets his chance to play but if he gets a goal and a run of games he really adds some pace and power to the midfield.

 

[Alvin-blue-qhd]

Needs a run of games to find some sharpness and rhythm. Hasn't been afforded that by Pep, for whatever reason.

His main issue now is KDB is back soon.

I think Pep didn't give him much time because Pep wanted to reduce his pressure. When Rodri was just suspended, Kova faced a lot of pressure. The same story, Pep may not want it to happen to Nunes. It would destroy him.

He's the type of player who could be really good after 6 months under Pep. He offers something different to most of City's other midfielders. His movement off the ball warrants more shots/goals. He made some great runs yesterday. He should be scoring that header.

Really pleased with his performance last night. That powerful run to set up the first goal was exactly why we signed him. He did similar against Forest back in September for Haaland's goal and a few of these against Red Star last week.

Like Foden being moved central to try and break low blocks apart with dribbling, that sort of ball carrying will be really effective once he's truly settled in.

Needs to be trusted from the start now.

 

[Trojan1962]

Gives us a bit of extra pace and getting better

 

[Haaland94]

He is going to shine for us. Big time.

Another decent little cameo, might even be ahead of whats normally expected in the first few months of joining

Glad to see he's getting some assists hopefully translates it to the league now

 

[diamond geezer]

It'll take some time for him to get used to the team's tactics. But he'll get there if Pep just spends some time with him, you can tell he's a great listener..

 

[Gigant]

I would play him as right back.
