47 | Phil Foden - 2022/23

[madloaf]

Gundogan chose to shoot last week against Villa when he could have played a simple square ball to Haaland so clearly not every footballer would have done the same

Sorry, meant to type "should" rather then "would".

 

[mosssideblue]

Looked hungry and gave Forest defenders problems. Brain fart when we needed him to be calm marred what was a good return.

Think Mahrez will have the shirt on Wed

He cost us the game today. If he plays Haaland in properly it’s 2-0 and game over

Haaland cost us points if that's the game we're playing.

Went to the ground when he had a 1v1, missed not one but two sitters, didn't put any effort into pressing, etc... Phil played FAR better than Erling today.

Did Haaland cost us the game too from missing from inside the 6 yard box?

Agreed

Unless Earl decides to throw himself on the deck.

Almost certain I would have thought. Mahrez is a CL favourite! Just which one of Grealish or Foden play on the other side.

I thought he played really well..

May be unpopular but all that 'doesn't pass to Haaland' talk looked to be in his head on that sequence. He's a goal scorer and we should all be fine with him taking a shot there. He's earned that right. Some of the comments about him in the PGT are comical..

Agreed, plus there seemed to be a bobble, the fact that it was his first start in weeks and he looked close to his old self, I'm more than happy. KDB was much much worse imho, but appears to be immune to criticism, whereas Phil is now getting slated.

I would argue that had Kev not continually kept wasting chances with awful shots, and been replaced earlier by Alvarez, when it was obvious that he was off the boil, maybe we'd have won anyway...
