"Massive occasion"? Is he taking the piss?
Did you see his reaction to David not cutting the ball back to him for that chance David put over late on?I liked that the senior players were passing to him constantly when he came on. He must have touched the ball 20 times in the first 10 minutes. Shows they recognise how much it meant for the lad.
Tommy went to him at full time, and they were laughing about it, Phi came over and joined in, such great team spirit that a legend can appreciate the youngsters in that way.Did you see his reaction to David not cutting the ball back to him for that chance David put over late on?
I think the NBCSN commentators described it best:
“He’s going to be asked after the match what is like to have a go at a Manchester City legend. [laughter]”
They will have learned more about what is needed to be a top level player from watching and interacting with David around the city campus, in training, and on the pitch than playing regularly for a lower league team.Tommy went to him at full time, and they were laughing about it, Phi came over and joined in, such great team spirit that a legend can appreciate the youngsters in that way.
And Taylor in defenceGreat to see. We’ve been crying out for local players for years and now we might have a few.
Doyle and foden in midfield is the dream
