Foden really starting to concern me now….. looked poor again tonight

 

[cleavers]

Foden poor. Walker poor. Stones poor. Gareth Southgate has coached their skills out of them!

I'm no fan of southgate, but he's not done anything to them in reality, I don't think Phil really knew what his role was tonight, but he didn't excel in most of what he did, Stones had virtually nothing to do other than baby sit the youngster, not sure he did much wrong, Walker similarly didn't have much to do, but played similar to how he has in other games so far.

Foden needs players ahead of him and because of the system he didn’t have that option a lot of times tonight. He’ll be fine.

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

The game all the 'accross the 6 yard box' crosses are hit, and get by and its the game without a striker. Even a half decent one is walking away with that match ball.

False 9 still sucks.

Thought Phil was pretty dire unfortunately and it's been a bit of a slow start to his season which is understandable.

We've got some very exciting wingers in Doku and Savinho and also looks like Grealish has picked up a bit of urgency in his play last few games.

You have to think the off field issues with Walker are affecting him, his head doesn't look in it at all with a lot of mistakes/rash decisions.

McAtee didn't really show too much either but still had a solid showing.

I know a lot of people don't rate Nunes but theres genuinely something about him that I love watching, his forward runs and the way he glides with the ball is great at times. Still hoping he becomes the player we wish he was.

All in all a fun night!

Ps. Anyone know why there was an absolutely large amount of German? Fans throughout the stadium starting their own chants etc

He had Covid I heard and has not felt 100% since even though it was weeks ago

I like the look of Jacob Wright

 

[JTFactsPlz]

Looks like he's the new boy to slag off! We must have moved on from Jack ;-)

No worries. The usual suspects will still make plenty of time to slag off Jack.

Thought there was much more than twenty of them tbh...
