He looked so good in his cameo against the Spurs.

I believe he was in the preseason squad as well that went oversees.

How has he looked for the youth teams? Anyone have a bit of scouting report?

He might be needed to make a few more appearances in the senior team given the schedule and the injuries in the 1st team squad.
 
I loved the part of his game last night in which Tottenham intercepted the ball in midfield, Kulusevski had the ball with Solanke onside making the run in behind, Simpson-Pusey stepped up in time to ball him offside otherwise Solanke was clean through.

Numerous small details to his game last night that was so impressive, Skipping past Solanke and playing a forward pass into midfield, He tried a few diagonal passes too, A few in which didn't work out but he mixed it up and took risks with the ball at such a young age.
 
He was excellent last night. Did everything that he had to deal with pretty much perfectly.

I have to be honest, when I first saw him two (ish) years ago I said he'd never make it at City. Seemed full of mistakes and was giving away goals every week.

However, after that cameo I'm happy that he's proving me wrong. He's got a chance to build from that and have a good career.
 
A brilliant debut. Very composed defending. Attempted a couple of diagonal balls which didn't quite come off, but had the confidence to try those passes which I always like to see from our youngsters. Whilst doing the basics right is fine, we need our young players to do so much more if they're to make it with us. Read the game well, playing offside or being in a position to get to the ball first. Wouldn't have an issue with him slotting in for us again based on that showing.
