I get the impression that he would rather be back at Leeds.

Was in Leeds in Jan, passed this mural, still up - maybe they'd take him back...?

Most of you are being blinded by the result imho.

I thought the performance was ok, nothing more.

However, we took our chances and that changes games and results.

Bournemouth we’re comically shit and will go down.

Thought Lewis had yet another really good game and his drifting into midfield suits Gundogan and gives him more licence to play higher up.

3 much needed points and really pleased to get back to winning ways.

I thought we played better v Forest.
But like you say it's about taking your chances.

Foden. Every. Week.

Acronym is “few”. We’re only making a few signings in the summer?

Only 35 pages….we must have won

Welldone city, a professional performance all the way through the team. Great to see Phil back and players actually playing Haaland in !!!! wtaf !!!!

Onwards to another title blues !!!

Bang on
You’d have thought that given the opportunity to play 30 min against a demoralised team losing 4-0 would be a great platform to show his talent.
Instead he strolled about looking disinterested. He looked slow and generally not bothered.
Really want him to do well but I fear for his future at City if any more displays like that.

I am normally in the camp of giving players a season to settle, but something seems very off with him at the moment. It's very unlike Pep to not give a player minutes in the way he is doing.

Spot on,
we were never winning the forest game, Just one of them games when if you thought it was going to happen, it did
Yesterday game was a bigger test and the result was the main thing, even yesterday at 1.0 we sort of turned off, and they had a couple of chances, but once the 2nd and 3rd went in it was game over and game management by pep,

Rico Lewis is simply incredible. Palmer needs to step it up then wel have 3 top level academy players in the squad! The stuff of dreams.

I would agree, he gives us much more purpose going fwd when we have full controll of the game

Where he comes unstuck for me is maybe PSG, Real Madrid even Arsenal when we start to lose control & pace becomes a problem

Arsenal FA Cup prime example the game just flown by Ricko & Walker came on & changed the game back in our favour

Walkers days are coming to an end after 1 more year, Rico will be picked more often imo, the kid has so much ability espeacialy supporting & playing with the ball, he also links in around the edges so much better than Walker, for a young lad he's incredible

If Sheff UTD get promoted I expect them to go for Walker?

Wont go back to Leeds in the Championship?

Brighton for MaCallister or Rice replacement if West Ham stay up?

If you mean the assist for Erling's goal apparently it was a " miss-cue " according to female commentator on MOTD!

No mate,I meant Fodens goal.

A good but not great performance. I actually thought we played better and created more vs Forest but we were much more clinical today and had the bit of luck at times that we didn't get last week.

I think a front 4 of Grealish, Fodeen, Haaland and Alvarez has some potential.

It enables us to get more in the box, which didn't happen against Forest.
