Nkunku looked good, took his goals well.

I am not sure how to describe that match!!

okay, well I don't. 1st goal he's not covering the attacker, second goal he's not covering the run, 3rd goal he overcommits, mistimes his tackle and leaves space in behind.

It all trickles down. not everything is his fault all the time but our defense as a unit works far worse with him on the pitch. maybe it's lack of experience.

all 3 goals were Ake’s fault. He is absolutely terrible at decision making.

So Ake is the latest wipping boy from City fans
A long line of players have come this sort of idiotic abuse and proved fans wrong
He is a City player & giving his best
What more can we ask for ?
He would be better of if people supported him instead of slagging him.of & wanting to blame him for everything

Agree but he can, and needs to, improve

I'll sum up the general sentiment on here for you:
Grealish great
Ake bad

Ferran Torres’s must hate it when Madonna’s “Borderline” comes on’t wireless.

 

[Blu1]

Pep not happy with the fans. Not surprised to be honest. Thing is it’s just too expensive for so many now. The club really need to look at ways for games like this.

I don't think we can start a right side of Mahrez, De Bruyne and Cancelo in a big game. Not because they're wank but because all 3 are chance creating, mavericks who like to get forward. There's no balance. We need a Jesus (best presser), Bernardo, or Walker in there to break that up.

That plus Ake not playing much (which I think led to some positional or communication breakdown) caused our defense to not be as good.

Just an observation. Could be wrong.
