I know he scored but I think we rate Foden more than he rates himself. Sometimes I just need him to just demand the ball, drive thru defenses & hit top bins casually; he’s that good
It is clear to me Foden is not capable of being the main man in City's midfield dictating play and running the show. He is a moments player who consistently disappears for large parts of games. RW is where he belongs
Tbh, I thought Foden was brilliant in the first 30-40 minutes yesterday. He was the main man in every City movement, coming back on defense, dribbling, shooting. At one point during the 2nd half I was convinced Guardiola had taken him off at halftime, because I hadn't seen him or heard his name in 30+ min.
Pep did a lot of good for Foden and his career however I dont think he'll ever master any role because Pep never allowed to just hone his skills and becoma an expert in any role. LW/RW/F9/CAM spells at the age of 24 is something else. Look how Mainoo will develop playing that same position week in week out against the best. Mainoo is also versatile but he can become a specialist
Honestly he does need to be more arrogant but when Haaland wastes atleast 2 of your assists each game and Bernardo doesn’t score either idk what you want him to do. Go Messi mode like last season and score every game
Pep never allowed Foden to become a specialist and acquire the tools to be the Main playmaker in the team. He's capable but you can see he's almost lost. LW/RW/F9 spells didnt allow him to develop as the CAM he promised to be.
@ yea we need players fit and focused, we need a good dm, but that doesnt fix the basic errors. Doesnt stop akanji stepping out for no reason instead of going with the runner to concede the 2nd goal, it doesnt stop the ridiculous challenges for the pens The midfield being too easy to bypass doesnt excuse defenders making basic errors. If those individual errors werent there yesterday we arent talking about the dm today. Its too easy to just blame the midfield for basic bad defending
At this point there’s no real harm in giving Wright or O’ Reilly a chance in the midfield. Barca went into the season with no DM and now they have Cassado and Bernal from their academy’s as their future. Pep needs to give the academy players a chance
What annoys me is that Pep is still going to continue to play the same style of play against Brighton, he's never going to change anything, we'll continue to play the way we are playing and get bad results, and Pep is going to say it's because we don't have Rodri, like why can't we for once play a low block, cause clearly we aren't creative enough, even when we create we don't convert, why don't we for once try to play counter attacking football just for now until January to try and minimize the damage? I know Rico Lewis is a good player and he's been good for a couple of games, but defensive wise he's not good enough, he's slow to come back, Akanji looks like he forgot how to defend, Kova and Gundo, as well as Bernardo we all now they are slow and don't help in Defence, non of them even try to create for Haaland, which is why I think Haaland has been frustrated lately, I think we need to start playing defensive football and hit teams on counter attack, cause we have fast attacking players in Doku, Savio and Haaland, another thing is we don't have a Leader, the team has no one to lead them.
Agree. Should let the enemies play their game and counter with haaland thats what got him the record in the premier league. Also Kevin was missing a lot of games this season again he was one of the creative heads who saw haalands opportunity
We need a refresh, tactically and player-wise. Hate to say it but the hunger in the side has disappeared and to keep it fresh we need to whittle out the deadwood and bring in fresh, the rags used to do that under the Govan pisscan. That's how they kept successful, we've done it a little bit but not enough for the last two years. We won the treble and have been living off reputations. There's at least four players that need to go, let's have a rebuild.
It’s all down to the 115 without it we would of spent big, if we get relegated I’m guessing most of the team can rip up their contracts due to illegal activity. It’s got to be there’s no other reason for our transfer dealings
People dog piling on Foden is funny. Easily our best player last game and the one before that. If Haaland remembered he’s the best striker on the planet and put away Fodens chances it’ll be such a different story. This isn’t a squad issue but more so a recruitment issue. January signing is a MUST.
Foden & Silva & now Rico loose balls far too much . . . one bad pass after another , i.e., everytime initiating counter attacks against City. counters only Kyle can stop.
Feels like pep is sabotaging a move out.. his decision making has been terrible ever since arsenal game.. also players like walker, gundo and foden are clearly not pulling their weight

DM is the problem, we don't have one 😂 Rodri is the glue that makes it work
Think we need to play the low block for while

I think city are starting to lose identity of themselves. But 3 defeats in a row is not a great stat.
This idea of plug and play a new dm and everythings sorted is a nonsense
Agreed
Everyone needs to step up and signing of a dm is necessary
@ yea we need players fit and focused, we need a good dm, but that doesnt fix the basic errors. Doesnt stop akanji stepping out for no reason instead of going with the runner to concede the 2nd goal, it doesnt stop the ridiculous challenges for the pens
The midfield being too easy to bypass doesnt excuse defenders making basic errors. If those individual errors werent there yesterday we arent talking about the dm today. Its too easy to just blame the midfield for basic bad defending
@ even the 1st goal, u could drive a bus, sideways through the middle of our centre backs, thats not down to the dm
Yh but if we dm more protection which means we get exposed
Less

Sometimes we need to get a lost to get that fire in our belly again stay positive guys pep will fix this
Our defence is crap😢
This season feels like it will be a long and painful one. the club HAVE to fix up in the summer.
It’s all down to the 115 without it we would of spent big, if we get relegated I’m guessing most of the team can rip up their contracts due to illegal activity. It’s got to be there’s no other reason for our transfer dealings
Perhaps we should be ask, “What’s actually going right at Manchester City?”
Absolutely nothing
@@TheLiquorShop Yeah. It’s grim. Maybe that Ederson has been our best performing player?
ederson couldn’t save a pen to save his life
Really blaming ederson?
no keeper is saving those 2 pens, hit with pace both.
Yep we know ederson don't save pens
5 out ? 3 from the defence
Uncomfortable conversation is it time to sell stones the guy made out of biscuits can’t even play 5 games in a row

Foden is not the main guy for city
KDB
Walker
Grealish
What is happening with all 3
Foden & Silva & now Rico loose balls far too much . . . one bad pass after another , i.e., everytime initiating counter attacks against City. counters only Kyle can stop.
Feels like pep is sabotaging a move out.. his decision making has been terrible ever since arsenal game.. also players like walker, gundo and foden are clearly not pulling their weight
How is he sabotaging, man won a treble and they gave him Kovacic and nunes as players, when there was rice, guimares, etc in the market.
I love pep and the boys, but it’s time for change.😢 peoples have got to go
How did we manage to win the first few games without Rodri if we can't win without him now?
Thats the baffling thing, those first three games I thought we played really well. What's gone wrong since then?

Luck and Haaland was scoring like his first season here
@@Bongz1eighty7we can be a transition team and possibly get better chances and 1v1s for Haaland but that’s not our identity
