Miles off the elite striker we saw last season. It’s hard in this current city team but he gives nothing right now. Can’t believe he fucking missed the ball.

He was completely dominated again today, like in many other big games this season

We have to either revise our slow possession plodding game or just let Haaland go. The two are incompatible without the space Gundogan and Mahrez could create. We sure as hell haven't come close to replacing those two.

He has certain strengths and certain weaknesses. We don't seem able to play to his strengths at the moment which highlights his weaknesses. He'll be fine when the players behind him click again.

I kind of agree but defender get away with soHe was completely dominated again today, like in many other big games this season
Much cos he’s big. Gabriel had full grip of his shirt at the end. How isn’t that a penalty? “Oh he a big lad, that shouldn’t stop him.”
He should do better I agree but also he doesn’t get a fair shake of the stick

The lack of quality service is absolutely criminal.

We are a much better team without him.
We become so predictable when he plays.
He always drifts to the far post, never runs in front across the defender. General contribution in open play is nonexistent.
Blaming KDB , Silva , Foden and Rodri for his poor performances is ridiculous.

He was up against 2 brilliant center half’s today with little support up there with him.
We don’t utilise his runs as they are exceptional, nor do I ever expect us to do so really under Peps set up.
His support play isn’t the greatest though, neither is his strength in the air for his size, I imagine this will come in time.

Whatever the reason is for the decline in his effectiveness, eg teams style of play, injuries etc. This season against decent defences he is often not offering anything but perhaps creating space.
The concern is that without KDB in top form this will be the norm unless something changes .
