I completely agree with this. I have thought for some while that Foden struggles to find the pockets that Silva did, but I think you’re spot on with the other two.
Foden's got such huge potential because of his youth and where he's playing his football. If he could develop the confidence and knowhow to sit himself in those tight pockets Silva did then we're on to a superstar. He's got the technical part down, so hopefully with coaching he can learn to move like a genius too. There are promising signs; when he's on the left he drifts infield just like Silva used to under Mancini.
I don't think he'll ever be quite like Silva was though, but he could be a lot like a Nasri type. Still with brilliant movement but technique that's better than almost anybody's. That would be more than enough to plug the Silva gap though as long as Pep's here at least.

Until then, Jesus it is. Keep an eye on Torres though.

He always plays for the team but in similar situations doesn't always get same response from the teammates.
He is offside in the first one if raz squares it , i think . Kev is endlessly annoyed with him as he is offside so much , perhaps they all assume he will be

The second one was down to him not finishing it himself , that position is meat and drink to strikers

Or have i had too much baileys ? I am too young for sherry

The second was a poor finish from Kev. It was harder to hit the bar than the target.

Why did it get to kev is the question , when the striker has it in a position to score , lack of confidence maybe , pep has said several times he or his mum cant do it for him

That photo still doesn’t show the full picture though. The defender was across and in front of him milliseconds later blocking off his shot option. Laying it back to Kev who was only about 8 yards out with a clear sight of goal was the right choice.
