Yeahn hes played lw/rw and as a 10 at somepoint so far.Can he play on both sides?
After Mahrez, I don't want us tieing ourselves down to attacking players that can only play in one position, it forces us into some terribly balanced lineups when rotating.
Not that i think he'll be moving anytime soon

He is a bit of a mirror image to a Mahrez. Does all his tricky stuff with his right foot and likes to start from the left side coming on to his right. Has a bit of fight in him. He's descent but he would have to adapt in the same way Grealish does. He basically wants to run the ball every time and has license to lose it a fair bit. If you change his mentality so he has to pass more and lose it less then there might not be much of his game left.Yeahn hes played lw/rw and as a 10 at somepoint so far.

Getting him to adapt and not lose much at 21 might be easier than Grealish at 26/27 though. Learning when rather than not tooHe is a bit of a mirror image to a Mahrez.

He hasn't played RW for Napoli, maybe he did at his prior club.Can he play on both sides?

But clearly he is impressing on the LW and if we wanted him I'd hope we put him in the position he is impressing.
I think the RW is fine though even if you don't fancy Mahrez, I trust Foden and Palmer to play there.
Mebude, Ndala and Borges have all also played RW and are perhaps closer to what your looking for in terms of players on either wings (though they have a preference). Typical at youth level as they aren't allowed to fully play one way quite yet.

the more i watch of him he looks very similar to grealish - left sided right footed, skillfull.
id say we dont need two of them
If Gundogan and Bernardo go in the summer then Jack can move inside?
He wouldn’t get the space he is getting at Napoli. And that’s where it starts. It has been a problem for Grealish too. But he seems to be a guy who can always score a that’s the different to someone like Grealish.
can he though. people keep saying the same thing about foden but he never plays thereIf Gundogan and Bernardo go in the summer then Jack can move inside?

Foden will end up central imo mate, I think pep just respects hierarchy in a sense? De Bruyne, Bernardo and Gundogan are all senior players compared to him but Phil in a few years will be more central, hopefully alongside Jude ;-)

Could have a midfield 3 of Foden, Rodri and Bellingham. Sounds like bliss to meFoden will end up central imo mate, I think pep just respects hierarchy in a sense?

Yep!
Except Kvaratskhelia is good and Grealish is not.the more i watch of him he looks very similar to grealish - left sided right footed, skillfull.

If we don't have space for both, ship Grealish off, there's no point keeping him around when he offers nothing.
we cant realistically ship Grealish off or replace him with another £100m signing. he’s doing fine for the style we now play.Except Kvaratskhelia is good and Grealish is not.

Kvara will be told exactly what Grealish and Foden doing right now, there's no telling what effect it might be if Pep reign him and not giving the freedom on what he have right now at Napoli.
i appreciate all these comments but why hasnt Pep done it yet?Could have a midfield 3 of Foden, Rodri and Bellingham. Sounds like bliss to me
You could also say Foden is too good a goal threat to drop him back

Goal threat and tempo control. Foden still wants to attack and play forward 100% of the time (no bad thing) but yet to learn when to step on it and dictate as David Silva or Gundo would do. Still learning that side for Pep
He's at the very top of the list of players I'd like to see here.What a player Kvaratskhelia is. Tearing Juve apart, 1 goal and 2 assists. Almost scored a bicycle kick as well. Shame he plays for Napoli
