52 | Oscar Bobb - 2024/25

[Man_City_Loyal]

Can see Oscar starting next weekend against the odd lot and even Chelsea after

 

[Vienna_70]

The press seem quite keen on selling him to Chelsea. I don't get the feeling they like us having very good young players .

It’s been going on for years.

"Foden has to go out on loan," ad nauseum.

Yep doesn't happen for say Mainoo or any half decent rag players. Also they must gave a very nice micro climate over in Trafford because their players never seen fussed about movung because of the weather ...

I think it's because on the surface City have got a fantastic team full of class players that it's difficult to see a pathway into the team for talented youngsters. Please don't kill me but I was one of those people who used to say Foden needs to either leave or go on loan for his own good because City had KDB and both Silvas ahead of him at one point, but Pep and Foden proved I completely underestimated City's ability to integrate their youth prospects. Bobb appears to be on that wonderkid level of prospect, so I have no doubts he'll find his way into the starting line up sooner rather than later, and his obstacles are way less daunting than what Foden had to fight through.

At United, if you're half decent you're straight into the first team, as proven by Mainoo. Foden had to work extremely hard for his chances, Mainoo was thrown straight in there.

Saying Foden should have left for a loan wasn't an outlandish statement at all, especially back then, when the team was even more loaded with talent than it has been in recent years. Foden is/was absolutely the exception. Palmer would have one, too. Hopefully, Bobb falls into the same category. I believe he will, but the jury is certainly still out.

According to City newsnow we are selling the entire first team, so Oscar will definitely get a start.

Are you Derek or Clive ? Which ?

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

I know it's only pre-season, but that RW spot should be his until he loses it. He's such a great player.

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

As soon as hes around the box defenders are toast

Cash in on Alvarez. Play Bobb instead

 

[city warrior]

I'll be honest. I feel like Pep played him less than what he deserved last season. Bernardo as a RW was not particularly great. I really hope Bob starts the season in our first 11, and that he has a more active role, because what a player...
