Jeremy Doku

In 62 matches (19/20, 20/21), Jack had 30 G+A for Aston Villa. In 75 matches, Doku had 17 G+A for Rennes. Rennes is also higher up the table than Aston Villa and in the French league, so his end product is concerning. Everything else is great though, so hopefully Pep can iron it out.

You do know that a player can only get an assist if another player does their bit and puts the ball in the net?

Chance creation is a much better stat.

The pace on our right hand flank (this Guy and Walker) is going to give opposition left backs nightmares :)

Andy Robertson has just rung his crack dealer and ordered double.

Even the best can struggle take sats game, haaland sorts his feet out and foden comes away with 3 assists

It's as clear as day we need a winger who is fast and can beat a full back one on one.

Take last night for example...Haaland is our major threat, so Navas tucked right in close to the centre back to help nullify any through balls down the sides or between the centre backs (which he cut out on at least one occasion I can remember).

The reason he could afford to do that is because although it left Jack wide open spaces for the switch of play and he was able to get the ball to his feet a lot, Navas always had time/speed to get back out to him knowing he wouldn't be beaten for pace or taken on.

If we have someone who is a threat and proper rapid on the wing (not necessarily saying it has to be the left, was just using last night as an obvious example), then the full back won't be able to risk tucking in and leaving so much space, as they would have to engage much earlier.

Thus in turn, leaving more space for Haaland...

So us having that extra dimension will for sure cause other teams additional headaches on how to negate our attacking threat, which without KdB, is very one dimensional and quite easy to defend against at times.

I agree we need to release some space for Haaland to use. He is double or triple marked so there must be space elsewhere but the slow build up compacts the pitch .

With that username, can’t say I’m surprised by your post…

Ivan Rodriguez was quite the athlete

Those concerned about his stats. I'm sure City have watched him and looked at his stats over a long period of time. If City are confident about him and are happy to buy him, I'm happy.
