Kyle Walker : 2018/19 performances

[Gabriel]

Mendy is supposed to be that guy but can he even play 50% of the season?

You ask too much. ;-)

I love Kyle and was really displeased at the way we turned against him during his "trying times". I feel he is so very important to our very risky style. This explains why even Danilo cannot get in as good as he is.

However, I also feel attacking fullbacks that can go up and down with pace, can defend to a reasonable extent and CAN DELIVER BALLS ACCURATELY into the box is that missing link from our attack being great and being unplayable. Mendy is supposed to be that guy but can he even play 50% of the season?

Zinchenko is a tidy midfield type player not exactly the type of player I described above. If we have dangerous full backs, our attack goes up another gear. I am absolutely convinced about that.

Spot on. Liverpool rely heavily on theirs and they've been so effective. Walker can run all day but generally all he is doing is stretching the pitch. His end product is abysmal.

Mendy has a quality delivery but defensively is a bit suspect and is never fit! I think Walker has one goal and one assist in the league this season from 30 starts.

Delph and Danilo have provided a goal and assist between them. Zinchenko has three assists and Mendy has 6 assists from 10 games.

Shows the complete gulf in what Mendy does for the team in comparison to anyone else.

Walker is worth 4 of Zinchenko (at fullback).

Walker can't cross and most of the time he needs to have one extra touch on the ball before he even considering it. That's one asset he needs to work on as a RB.

Everyone knows that Walker is by far the better full back, all things considered.

I think @supercity88 rolled out the stats to highlight the fact that Walker's attacking prowess isn't there yet. I sincerely believe that if we have dangerous fullbacks, our attack would become unplayable. Its a bit of a dilemma for us because we can hardly do without Walker because his pace bails us out ever so often.

If this City team is to kick on, we need a better RB than Walker in terms of end product.

Well we are short of goals.

I watched Barca v Liverpool, & if they had Walker, they'd be in the final of the Champions League. That also goes for either of Fenandinho & Vincent Kompany.

If they'd had all 3, it would likely have been 0-0.

I think the problem is, he thinks about it too much.

Concentrate on keeping a clean sheet & giving the ball to better players without losing it imo.

Well we are short of goals.

There is always room for improvement.
