Nicolas Otamendi - 2017/18 performances

[Gundogan's Moustache]

He's not stupid , he listens , where have them lunging challenges he used to do under Pelegríni gone? Top class this fella

 

[ADegenerate]

I don't think I'd swap him for anyone right now. Different manager, different system and that changes but he seems perfect for what we do.

For his somewhat (false or maybe overstated IMO) bonehead reputation he's incredibly cool on the ball and pretty skillful. I had a soft spot for him because he was relentless and always bet on himself with his decision making...now he's surrounding by an entire team that attacks the ball like he does and plays in a 'hectic' way that he seemed to.

Good god we are so lucky to be in the position we're in.

 

[MarsLlama]

He's just great. Scored one, forced Lukaku to gift us another and, as we now know, should've won a penalty.

Nobody outside of City will give him credit - it's like he's been permanently marked as a weakness. When actually he's been one of our best performers for ages.

I think he's a great Pep player, but he's too mistake-ridden for me. Gives me anxiety every time he touches the ball in our own half: the incident with Herrara is an example. The incident wouldn't have happened had it not been for his heavy touch. One of a number of examples.

Sorry mate, that is bollocks. He is the most assured defender on the ball we have playing at the momet

 

[City_Sean]

The general. He's become one of my favourite players, a warrior and a leader at the back.

 

[Hungarian blue]

I would actually say this was only his 3rd best performance at OT, he loves it there. :)

I was thinking this, he was colossal in the 0-0 a few years ago and great in last year's win too.

Like to see a replay of this and Sky didn't show this again like they did over and over for rags claim
