A poor man's Gareth Barry for me.

Does the dirty work and gives the ball to players who can make things happen but that's it!

A 105M poor man’s Gary Megson for me

Barry is one of my favorite player and very underrated by most of our fans .Read the game like a camp and his positional awareness was fantastic.What a player .

Magnificent player, the most underrated player in the Sheiks era.

So you think Rice isn't good enough to get in the City team ? Not to replace Rodri of course but in addition.

Personally I wouldn’t dump 100 million for english fernando .

20 fouls and only 1 booking. The other was the keeper time wasting.

The other booking was for time wasting.

We do that when eddie is playing between the sticks . Any city fan should know pros and cons of our two goalies .Im sure pep and his team know a thing or two about mixing stuffs , you know like cabinet full of hardwares . Also pep team should have a hard drive full of haalands strengths and weaknesses .

I’m well aware of our goalkeepers pros and con thanks. I was talking about the back 4 getting their heads up and trying it occasionally instead of playing it along the line and back again.

The 1 booking other than that one was also for time wasting. He didn’t book anyone for fouls which was bizarre. We also got away with a blatant booking for similar. Very odd.

No.

Not everything has to to be a conspiracy.

The City players could have spoke to the manager and declined playing two games before the Arsenal match. They didn't.

Maybe, but Southgate should be thinking about himself even if he doesn’t care about the clubs, ,he needs these players for the summer, risking them when he has nothing to learn about them is just idiotic.

They are instructed not to would be the main reason. Possession and positional are priorities for him.Plus it’s rare for oppostion defences to stray too far forward and leave gaps behind,mostly they keep 8 back and leave 2 up for a breakaway.
Arsenal used to but have stopped leaving those spaces behind.
