Nice partnership developing between him and Rodders.

 

[Akira]

Very good at what he does. Always felt we are a better team with him next to Rodri.

 

[youngbob]

I like him. Still unbeaten with him and Rodri in the team.

 

[samuelyeboah]

Excellent again and really starts to expose those without ball knowledge from those with..

 

[grim up north]

you may laugh you have your opinion i have mine

watch newcastle first goal. Yes Walker was stupid but how could the ball come so easily? Watch how Kova slowly jogged back and had no idea of where he should be...

Doku and Josko certainly did not do well but you will expect something more from an experienced player to command the movement around in this kind of situation but no every time like this Kova will gracefully disappear and blend himself into the backstage. Well that is some experience to avoid blame...

Lol watch City,s 3rd goal

Yep as long as making some contribution to a goal, all will be forgiven.

If you actually know anything about football you will get what he contributes to the team

I am not saying he does not contribute. I am only saying I hope that we invest game time in another No 8 option or buy a new one who is capable of chasing up Lewis Miley when we nearly lost a 3rd goal.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Kovacic has the intelligence to move into spaces and shapes that pull opponents open and create room for the likes of Rodri, Foden, and de Bruyne to exploit.

 

[Gabriel]

Pah! Drawing four players to the ball and slipping it through is easy-peasy stuff. He needs to curl it into the top corner from there if he wants to win over the Bluemoon boffins.
