Defending is not the job of one person.
Naturally, he would be aided by Stones, and/or Lewis.
In addition, Grealish/McAtee are able to defend from the front.
The issue, if there is one, is KDB/Foden and whether there is enough tracking from them of runners. That's where Nunes' legs come in, and Ajanji on the right of central defence.

Whatever team we put out, we can always say that an individual cannot do something. We cannot replace Nunes with Kovacic - he is out. Gundo and Bernardo have shown that they are not able to deal with athletic runners, so that means a different solution. I would have no problem sitting Nico alongside Nunes and making a more conventional flat line ahead, with just one No.10.

Id like to see Nico and Nunes together aswell tonight. They will bring the athleticism in the middle of the park we badly need. Kevin Grealish and Savinho behind the big man in front of them. Like the sound of that myself.
 
Was near shambles square an hour ago. Very lively atmosphere.

Come 9:45 they’ll be quiet.

3-0 City this.

the players just got the run around on a heavy pitch in terrible weather 3 days ago. if they arent injured or unfit then they’re also knackered.
No such things as heavy pitches in the PL these days.

I would be knackered but a professional athlete shouldn’t be.

We have defended dreadfully, not controlled the mid-field and missed chance after chance. Can’t see that improving overnight.

And what the hell is wrong with Foden? He has gone from footballer of the year to local park player in 3 months.
 
20.5% went for loss ,,,
we never win at home
we never win away
mcfc ok



come on city
 
I don’t know the answer to the defensive midfield problems. At half time against spurs I mused whether Kev and Jack on would allow us to control the ball better, but wouldn’t solve the problem of our midfield being ran through. Hopefully Pep can come up with an answer
 
I really hope McAtee starts tonight and plays well because I think Pep has treated him unfairly since bringing him back from Sheffield. He bigged him up in the close season but has hardly played the lad. If he doesn't get starts soon he might ask to leave and I don't blame him if he does.
Shame Pep renewed - we could have made good use of your player knowledge
 
Barring Rodri all the other injuries are starting to come back now, as for players underperforming, the players need to have a hard look at themselves. What do you mean and? Like it’s just “oh well” the players are being paid millions but performing like a mid table side but it’s just and?
You sound like an ungrateful mother fucker

My knowledge is McAtee wanted to stay at Sheff utd and Pep wanted him to come back here telling him his future is here yet he won't play him even though we've been depleted with injuries.
His future is here but we’re going through a tricky period & shouldn’t place such huge responsibility on him at this stage.
