I loved gundog in his last year, he was so inspirational. When I heard he was returning I was stoked. Some might say don't go back, and I have to agree, Hès been stinking the place out since he returned, though there's more pressure on him with Kevin out. almost as bad as Walker who looks shot. Anyway, up the blues, we are still second!
I would say Nunes should take the role Gvardiol has and the latter should move into central defence. We need Gvardiol to be able to pass forward from the back (no risk takers there means we are slow) and Nunes can also cover defensively.Problem with McAtee is that when he gets a chance, he doesn’t grab it and say you can’t drop me now. His performance against Spurs was lacklustre and I thought he was outshone by O’Reilly.
For me, Nunes needs to move into the middle now to see if he can do it there and Doku can come back in.
Constantly conceding as well. Really need to tighten up.Not sure we have many defenders currently capable of playing consecutive matches (maybe only Akanji/Gvardiol), so the defence is constantly changing.
Agree. A Rodri back up in January is now essential. But we have missed KDB & Foden both of whom have not played well this season. But it’s only 10 games in & we’re still second without many of our top players.We have to buy a CM I just dont think Kovacic is good enough. I realise Gundo and Foden having stinkers but the 6 is essential to our system and he wouldn’t have got in a city first 11 for the last decade now we are reliant on him. Not solely his fault but since we’ve been reliant on him we can’t keep a clean sheet. The happy clappers who said recruitment hadn’t been an issue this yeah have to admit it really is. No Alvarez replacement. No support for Rodri no Walker replacement all proving to be problematic now. I realise that’s our first loss but anyone who’s been going to games will surely admit we haven’t looked great in any game. Not got any pace or power and can’t put games to bed.
Plus Foden out of form.Kevin and Rodders mate. Bridge too far for anyone that tbf.
We’re conceding too many on the break, and teams like Bournemouth are prepared to leave men up because they know our slow midfield won’t be able to catch them.Constantly conceding as well. Really need to tighten up.
I watch football with my eyes- not a stat sheet.
He should have gone last season tbh . Great servant but not what we need and certainly not a captain . Am I wrong ?Ob bloody cene.
Disgraceful comment !!
