    To be brutal, if his end product has not improved seriously
    by the end of next season, then he has to go.

    Werner has the pace and the workrate to do that, and is making the runs, but nobody seems to be passing to him leaving us reliant on Richy ****ehousing Rodri

    Doesn’t matter. It still is and all to play for.
    And remember, City can’t score at this ground.

    Not even sure about that. He seems to be coasting most of the time and has failed to track back at speed a few times. And as others have said, his game management is poor, so is often in the wrong place or just not seeing the game unfold.

    1. Citeh have sh*te end product.
    2. For all their possession, the pressure is hardly relentless.

    Apart from Vicarios great save before the offside neither keeper has had any save to make.
    With no maddison, son, sarr or Bissouma we are blunted upfront but the quality of the football has been really good.

    Thought we weathered an early storm and settled reasonably. City are always so dangerous, their passing so crisp and their movement so smooth. I think we looked a little disjointed throughout the first half and particularly at the start. Midfield looks a little out of balance and we need to hit the wingers more often and earlier, and of course with accuracy.

    Wouldn’t be surprised to see Kulu move right and Maddison come on for Johnson as soon as possible, just depends on Maddison’s legs and how many minutes we think he has in him.

    Johnson took a knock in first 5 mins...has struggled since...think he'll be off

    Bentancur is not having a great game either. Lot of misplaced passes.

    Rodri is such a class player, never panics and always seems to find a good pass even under massive pressure

    Hojbjerg has been decent tonight, probably our best midfielder to be fair
