27 | Matheus Nunes - 2024/25

[WestGorton]

He did ok. No complaints.

 

[Gabriel]

The missed opportunity was frustrating because he never even looked to square. He also should have been more aggressive when countering before that, instead choosing to pass when there was plenty open space ahead to attack and he had the beating of his pursuers. Defensively, he especially needs to watch for the type of foul he conceded at the start of the second half, right on the byline.

 

[Blu1]

Should not be at city & no better than Phillips

 

[ScottSinclair]

Was fine today

 

[shemnel]

Bad first half, exemplified by the decision not to shoot when one on one, but he did grow in the 2nd half. He needs to work on his self belief too.

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

Thought he was ok. Good at carrying the ball forward, if only he’d had a shot or squared it to Palace that time

 

[OrigamiNinja]

The thing that baffled me about the 1v1 was why was someone who is right footed, trying to cut back on to his left? I cut him some slack because no other RB at the club finds himself in that position. Walker and Rico would have both been 50 yards further back and passing to Akanji.

He is way better than Phillips

Still can’t understand why he never tried to slip it to Haaland; never seemed to look at him nor even sense his presence.

 

[Odd socks]

Missed his mess up as my picture froze but thought he was solid and certainly has a decent cross on him, patience required I think.

 

[youngbob]

Just not good enough, sadly. The comparisons to Phillips are silly but he's miles below what's required.

Never seen him complete a solid 90 minutes. He's good in flashes but always, always has a mistake in him.

Don't think he's strong enough mentally which will always hold him back from reaching his potential.

 

[David White]

Thought he did ok overall a part from that 1 on 1. What the fuck did he think he was doing? I’d have pissed in his shoes in the changing room for that.

He puts that chance away and people would be in here saying he’d had a great game and that he’s an option at right back stepping into midfield now.

 

[Beanhead]

aside from the not shooting debacle I thought he was very good today. An upgrade on rico imo I’d like to see him there now

He’s a far, far better player than Rico and ten times the athlete physically. The only thing he’s not that Rico is, is a local lad from the academy.

 

[carlosthejackal]

So other than the two drop bollocks in twenty seconds against Trafford and his fuck up tonight it’s all going fine ! Or maybe those shit decisions separate great players from bang average.

 

[sarcastico]

Nunes has the right tools, he just needs to improve his football IQ

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

What is he doing in that shooting situation. Incredible. Awful

 

[Stelea]

Best out of the back 4 tonight plus he was playing the inverted role at times.

 

[Ajm1985]

That cross for Haaland was a thing of beauty.

 

[Tevez City]

Once & " IF" he gets his confidence back, he will be good enough

 

[super_city_si]

I thought that was something to build on. Got in some good positions. Just needs the confidence to shoot. Great cross for haaland.

Hell be unsure of himself until he gets a run of games but I don’t mind him there.
