You play to his strengths within the team. Aguero was a better footballer than Erling. Earling scores more goals. You don't learn all round ability his ability is putting it in the net.That is rather the point. It is arguable that Pep’s style does not easily tolerate an out and out goal scorer. We won the title after all without a striker at all. When Aguero was left out to develop his all round game, he returned a much better player. Haaland needs to do the same.
You are just arguing for no change, no improvement, no nuance. Fine, if you feel that way, but plenty don’t. Not even Pep.You play to his strengths within the team.

He will never be thevplayer you want him to be .You are just arguing for no change, no improvement, no nuance. Fine, if you feel that way, but plenty don’t. Not even Pep.
The answer then is to ‘do a Sterling’. Pep thought he could improve in front of goal; when he didn’t, he was sold.He will never be thevplayer you want him to be .
The European cup was much easier to win in those days hence Villa and Forest and the dippers beating the likes of malmo and even getting byes in some roundsBeen to villa park many times over the years and their support is utter wank, culminating in the FA cuo game the other year when there were probably as many city fans in the ground as villa fans. Their away support isn't much better.
Made me laugh when they were singinig you used to play for a big club to Grealish - fuck me, talk about delusions of grandeur, unless Jack used to play for someone else.
Yeah, these players are not like the FOCS in CBL3, old dogs who won't tolerate learning a new trick. These are young lads, new dogs. They'll soak up anything!You are just arguing for no change, no improvement, no nuance. Fine, if you feel that way, but plenty don’t. Not even Pep.
Fair play - still to me had the Laporte feel re pace - then i thought what a buy..exactly like Gvardiol i feel - what an immense week he has hadDias signed at the end of September 2020. Won City’s player of the month in November 2020. Played 50 games in the season including 32 league matches on the way to winning the PL. Won the Football Writers Player of the Year award at the end of his first season. He was also City's player of the season and the PL player of the season.
I wonder whether we sometimes have sacrificed a system that could have conservatively scored 6 last night for a less goal heavy one just to accommodate Haaland.
I was gobsmacked by the statement:”You can’t improve your all round game.” I give you Mr. Kevin Keegan, twice European footballer of the year.Yeah, these players are not like the FOCS in CBL3, old dogs who won't tolerate learning a new trick. These are young lads, new dogs. They'll soak up anything!
