Burnley PL (H) Man of the Match

[laserblue]

Doku. He's on fire at the moment. Keep it up Jezza.

 

[wythenshaweblue£££]

My boy was on fire today

Not many of our own players have got two goals and an assist in a game in the last 12 months. Takes some doing that haha

 

[nico04]

Foden for me. Is developing into an all round midfielder.

Who is The Count?

Not a star wars fan then?



it's not the small green chap either.....

There was a lack of energy and leadership at some points in the game mate. They still look like a new team coming to terms with one another. Great potential but a lot of work to do before we are back to our very best.

genuine question, what's makes you think it's a lack of leadership? Imo Dias, Haaland and Foden are leaders.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Really harsh. I’d have given him at least a 9.8

Doku is unplayable on current form. There’s literally no way to stop him. He’s too fast off the mark for anyone to cope.

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

all played well tbh savinho needs to shoot or pass at the right time

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Thought Gonzo was quietly superb

 

[growl]

Gave my love to Nunes. Smashing goal.

 

[Cellarite]

Doku, but good performances by Foden, Nico and Nico.

I was talking specifically about the game yesterday and contrasting it to the United game. When we went level yesterday I felt some shoulders dropped. Our press was lacking, Erling got really grumpy with his midfield. The contrast in energy and team spirit was, to me, stark. I felt it needed someone to take the game by the scruff of the neck. Thankfully Doku continued to lead by example. Young O’Reilly carried the ball at pace a couple of times which lifted the team. The second and third helped for sure.

To your general point. With Dias, there is more to leadership than high fives and pointing. Phil and Erling are both young but showing increased signs of leadership. My view is as long as he recovers Rodri is the real team leader and hopefully will be captain soon enough. I do like Donna’s energy and total engagement with the team and crowd too. I can see him taking a leadership role in future.

 

[Roachy]

Doku, causing defenders all sorts of problems.

 

[r.soleofsalford]

Watching the highlights the BBC were rooting for Burnley and we were pants according to them. Doku was involved in everything and Haaland took his goals superbly

If you listen to the white noise City only win because the opposition have played badly.

 

[noblelord]

Got to be Doku

 

[Blue Theatre]

Doku our most effective player this season.

I'm giving it Haaland, and not just because he scored. His all round play was excellent, holding it up, starting attacks and defending when needed.
