I asked first!

Who’s wank? And what’s the time scale? Game, week, month, season, career?

You’re telling me a full international, for whom City paid handsomely, in the prime of his career, is playing in the supposed best team in the world, is wank.

I’m sorry, but I’m not having it.

Walker
Lewis
Akanji
Simpson-Pusey
Gundogan
Foden
Bernardo
Kdb

That’s a short list of players who have been playing worse than him in recent games. Now, if you want to include Haaland for the chances he’s missed, I’d argue he’s scored a few, but with the exception of the Brighton game, he’s not been lighting up my life, either.

I’ve omitted both Doku and Savinho, because they’ve shown flashes of brilliance, albeit without end product, and have left out the walking wounded who haven’t played hardly any minutes recently.

No-one has been tearing up trees recently, but it feels slightly personal to even think of highlighting Nunes as wank recently, especially given the dire performances of some players.

I’ll leave it there. It’s late here and sleep beckons. I’m sure I’ll wake up to more “The End is Nigh and Pep is an arrogant twat for suggesting City might let someone else win the League this season!” for Sunday, so I have that to look forward to!

Weird time to be putting the boot into Nunes. He's been working his bollocks off for us lately and one of the few players creating anything. Has he been perfect? No, but he's making the best of it in an underperforming side playing an unfamiliar role.

Unfortunately working his bollocks off is his problem not his strength. When the going gets tough in games his bollocks disappear.
 
What sporting and Brighton games confirmed to me is that this lad has the head loss gene in his locker.

Giving away stupid fouls towards the end of yesterday, along with the penalty in the Sporting game.

One to watch.

In response to your third paragraph Kalvin Phillips says hi.
 
I just can't get buy into him. Two of those free kicks he needlessly gave away late on when we needed to keep the pressure on had me fuming. He just doesn't seem to have much between his ears.

He's got something and is undoubtedly talented but I think he's more suited to a lesser team who will let him do what he wants.
