[Chi-town blues]

He's a bit clicky.

His focus is bit off and can’t read the depth of field clearly.

 

[Gabriel]

I’m not sure on his position so far he seems to be sitting a bit to deep

I think Guardiola is rotating Kovacic, Lewis, and Nunes into the deeper position, with Stones also coming up. It means two of the first three appear to drift in and out of the game, but they are constantly pulling their opponents hither and thither.

 

[Blu1]

Foden & haaland off for me no need to risk them.

Foden will peak aged 25-32, and the world will tremble before one of his final form, as one of the 5 most complete technical players of all time.

All time? Behave

BBC spot on as always

He's a bit clicky.

I didn't know Morrissey had turned his hand to football management

What a goal. Finally Phil's scored one of them, where he's all limbs and silky touches, gliding along the surface and bouncing off defenders. Normally he slams it straight at the keeper or doesn't quite get the shot off but he finally connected this time. Amazing, amazing technique.

He’s so much better with his left.
He doesn’t trust his right foot sometimes.

Young boys..... swapping shirts..... Foden tucks it inside the goalpost. Marvellous isn't it?

 

[Nascent Blues]

Lovely goal
Decent performance First half though you can tell the midfield haven't played too much together.

Exactly. The midfield has a handful of minutes together, so this will do them the world of good.
