He will soon be starting a lot of games, IMO. He potentially has it all.

It's not just the quick feet, it's the speed of thought in that moment to finish like that. It really was the only way to finish it but 99.9% of players in that moment just try to hit it goalwards and probably straight into the keeper.

To have the speed of thought to realise the situation and possibility, then the composure and feet to pull it off....I don't think you can teach that.

Hats off to whoever scouted this lad in Norway as a teenager.

That goal reminded me of Messi. And before any giddy **** jumps down my throat I'm not saying he'll be as good as the Argentine. But he's an exceptional young player.

He's already better ;)

Going to the top. Unique set of skills. Great feet and balance.

Pep trusts this boy 100%, the way he subbed on at a crucial moment like this.

Go and get a goal Pep said

It’s not just the control and finish that are impressive, it’s the confidence in himself to make the run in the first place and the confidence in de Bruyne that he will make the pass. There was precious little room for error either way.

Plus, he’s hardly played with KDB.

There was some truth to it when we had Sunderland and Stoke in the PL. Moyes's Everton were also leg bruisers to great extent.

Amended that a bit;)

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

is it his first PL goal or first ever goal for City? I would have said he played a few PL games last season but apparently did not even have a sub app either in 22/23...

anyway great finish and a very important one.

media would start the Macheda style hyping up if he were playing for the quiet neighbours now.

Scored against Red Star in Belgrade too.

How good is this goal

Great balance and quickness of feet, well done young man:)
