Superb. Shame that refs in this country seem to have decided that shoulder barges are fouls now, because he's amazing at them.

He wasn't "jittery" he just started badly, he was otherwise excellent.He’s certainly resilient. Perfect response after his jittery Etihad debut. ‘Pleased for him.

He's shown some great signs. Pace, recoveries, nice solid passing. Be interesting to see him at RB.
Likely to have a lot of ups and downs while he settles.
Could be a beast if he keeps learning from Johnny and big Rubes.

Best compliment I can pay Khus is that he didn’t look out of place next to the imperious Johnny Stones.
Very composed on the ball and strong and quick in the tackle.

Of the 3 new boys obviously Marmoush got the plaudits from the mainstream today for his goals. Well deserved. Nico G was a revelation today for me. We’ve been crying out for a no nonsense, keep it simple, positionally aware DM all season since Rodri’s injury.
But this guy is becoming one of my favourite players to watch and root for at the minute. Obviously not the polished article yet, but even after only a few minutes in a blue shirt you can tell he has all the core attributes to make it in this team. Quick, strong, calm, comfortable on the ball to an extent I genuinely didn’t expect when he signed.
There’ll be future mistakes no doubt, that’s to be expected from a 20 year old centre half, but even after that 10 minute Chelsea horror show I’ve seen enough to know he has something.
Side note, must be a joy to play along side Johnny Stones. I can’t exaggerate how much I love that boy. The perfect partner and mentor for a young lad.

Including one of his own making…His recovery pace is phenomenal. Put out so many fires today.
The Uzbek Kyle Walker!
Seriously, this guy could be pivotal in Pep’s City 3.0
FAKE OR NOT, I LIKE THE RESPONSE:

Impressed with him yesterday
Barely put a foot wrong except Gordan spinning him once, but Gordon is a tricky customer and capable of doing that to anyone once a game.
He was solid all round and will get better. Thought he looked calm on the ball too. Calm simple passes and never looked rushed.
Funny thing is, as the game went on, Gordon didn't fancy his chances at going pace for pace with him. There was a point when Newcastle hit us on the break and Gordon was on the ball, as soon as he saw Khusanov, he cut back on himself and essentially slowed the play down. How often do you see that lesbian looking scouser second guess his own pace in a battle?
His top speed has been clocked at 37km/h , the same top speed as Van Der Ven and Walker have been clocked at. That's the kind of pace we're dealing with. And he's only 20. Most people's pace hits it's peak in their mid 20s.
