Consistent game time and not just in the CL. I’m not sure that we can continue the policy of waiting until we have a three-goal cushion before introducing McAtee and Nunes earlier in games. If we do, then the senior players will again be exhausted in April/May when Real Madrid appear over the horizon.All he needs is game time.
I really like the way he plays. Aesthetically pleasing on the ball, works hard and has a good sense of positioning. Impossible to not see David Silva at times.
Some good stuff last night and some not so good in terms of a couple of loose passes and touches but happy to put that down to rustiness.
I feel like he's going to have a breakout game where it all clicks and he makes everyone realise how talented he is.
and a striker :)All he needs is game time.
Significant that he wasn't asked to play on the wing.Posters may not agree, but I think the loan to Sheffield United has made a difference. He looked like he’d played proper men’s football, compared to some of the other youngsters.
Training with the first team and becoming integrated in the team is vital now.
It was admittedly a dead rubber, but we started Lewis, Gomez, Phillips, Nunes, Hamilton, and Bobb in Belgrade. We should be comfortable enough to start Nunes, Lewis, and McAtee in Bratislava.I’m hoping that he starts in the next champions league game. Otherwise I just don’t see where the game time is coming from, other than the odd cup game.
Not playing for a month or even coming off the bench isn’t great for his development. Similar for Nunes really. When they do play they lack match sharpness.
First season 100% but the second season was a total wastePosters may not agree, but I think the loan to Sheffield United has made a difference. He looked like he’d played proper men’s football, compared to some of the other youngsters.

I don’t agree. He was playing pretty much every week. Getting used to top flight football. If he didn’t have that season I’m 100% sure the club and posters on here would be saying he doesn’t that premier league experience.First season 100% but the second season was a total waste
He would have been far better at Leicester in the second season where the club wanted him to go.I don’t agree. He was playing pretty much every week. Getting used to top flight football.

He wasn’t going to play at city and a loan move to Sheffield United made sense.
Not necessarily. Leicester were in the championship and he wouldn’t have had any exposure to the premier league. He’d already done it in the championship as well.He would have been far better at Leicester in the second season where the club wanted him to go.
