OK. I didn't think he had his best game, that's all. Not going to argue about it but you can tell me what you thought he did well because I just didn't think it was is best game but its early in the season and that's OK he will get better. Not looking for an argument, like you seem to be.

Read my post earlier I did and critiqued as well a balanced post! Also am not making any excuses that he is 18 you start any game go city pep thinks your good enough! It's a forum people have opinions some have a personality of looking at the negatives more than the positives! Some on here ain't city fans see a top class young lad and want to post negatives about it(jealousy)
 
Feel like he isn’t ready yet, but these experiences will do him good in the long run. We need to wait for him to get physically stronger as there is barely a single duel where he doesn’t end up on his arse. And with his back to goal he needs to play it first time more often, as he seems to want an extra touch too often and then doesn’t have the strength to resist the pressure that comes because of it. Just a matter of time but right now I think it’s still too soon for him. Just my opinion.

I am a City fan, have been for 59 years. I agree Rico has done fantastic for us since he has come into the squad and you are right some fans are really negative a lot of the time. I just felt that he had one of his poorer games last night. Not a dig at him I was trying my best to be constructive.

There have been good and bad parts of almost every appearance he's made so far. Defensively he can be weak or caught out of position. Both things he will improve through getting older and more experienced. I don't see him as a defender long term, I like his drive in midfield. He's quick and positive on the ball which is good. But he's been caught a few times - Spurs last season for example, when in that position too. All part of the learning curve for a young player. He's got about 3 full seasons before you'd expect him to completely eliminate mistakes from his game.
 
Played out of his natural position and against a team that cannot be benchmarked until we know where they stand in comparison with the rest of the PL.
