Not sure what some saw today. A very short came, with one of the lowest ratings on the team. Didn't do anything worth of mention. Nothing good, nothing bad, we were just cruising. I only remember one bad pass and Pep getting angry he didn't play it better because we would have a 1 on 1.

No hate, I wish him all the best, but it's probably never going to be on our level.

But of course you had to come and tell everyone that he wasn't good, yeah no hate at all.

Hope I’m proven wrong but think his agent has pulled our pants down with Forest ‘interest’ then getting a new contract. Not our level and not sure he will be.

He’s steady. But our midfielders don’t need to be steady, they need to be more than that. He doesn’t get too involved and it’s easy to forget he’s playing sometimes and that’s in the team’s engine room. And at full back he’s too small and gets targeted.

Time will tell, mind, and I hope I’m wrong because the potential is there. But so was McAtee’s.

Criticism doesn't equal hate, if we always say how fantastic everyone is, what is the point of the player forum. We should be sitting top of the league/CL group with all wins, but that's not really the case. It means our players are not perfect. We have some world-class players, some fantastic players, and some good players. The problem is good is not really good enough for us. For me, that's Rico. An okay player doesn't cut it for us, though, and I doubt he will be happy with his limited minutes. If he is, it's a win for us to have depth, but he will want to play regularly, surely. Time will tell.

Obviously came on at the end but hoping thats where we see him when he makes an appearance.

Think he could be used to give Foden and Bernardo a rest. That’s his job this season imo

I think I've only seen him sub for Bernie in the last couple cameos.

No more RB, I agree, have him play as a hard working 8 like Bernie
