Right back options

Nunes has taken 3 seasons to finally start looking decent. Been very good this season but his first 2 were disastrous. We don’t have time / wiggle room for a similar signing again.

If we’re honest about Gonzalez, he’s not good enough to boss a PL midfield and wouldn’t have gotten within a mile of any of our previous squads. A poor signing imo.

I love Lewis’ attitude and heart and the fact he’s an academy product. But again, he’s nowhere near good enough for a team wanting to win leagues and other trophies. If City put him on the market tomorrow, there wouldn’t be a single top side who’d bat an eyelid. He’d end up at a bottom half side as a squad player or abroad.
Is that the same Gonzalez who played a big part of City regaining form this season? I don’t think it’s a coincidence since his knock against Sunderland and Brighton we’ve been poor in nearly every game we’ve played.
 
Recency bias is mad. Nico played as a one man midfield and bossed the likes of Dortmund, Madrid and Liverpool. He played a few bad games and all of a sudden he was a poor signing. He’s not a poor signing if you consider that he’s an 8 that was bought to deputise for Rodri. He’s done a very good job.

Nothing recent about it. In my view he hasn’t bossed any game since signing, let alone the ones you reference.

I liked him at Porto and was intrigued when we signed him but imo he absolutely would not get in any of our Pep era midfields.

I mean yes because those players were world class and in their prime. Nico’s prime is at least two years away. At least let him develop before calling him a poor signing. He’s been good too not Philips level

Don’t worry, mate. As soon as Rodri is back we’ll be pissing games!
In all seriousness, I’d love to see Rodri and Gonzalez start together as I think that will give us a really solid base.
