He's been integral to us having any sort of possession!Didn't mean we should sub him for Maddison, I think he's been good, but ineffective in possession.
According to xG, gets 0.8 of a chance, scoresThis is the game we really miss Son. He always turns up against this lot. Gets one chance, scores.
Werner has been in acres of space. Johnson doesn't want the ball.I'm in the South. I can see movement from Werner, Johnson not at all
Screw xG. As long as we score when we get a chance, I don't care. City have had an xG of over 10 in their visits to our ground, and still haven't scored.I'm not one for stats especially xg but I noticed ours was 0.0 for that half. Hopefully we can build on that first half and get Maddison on at some point
Ange never takes him off though.Oh my Kulu is having a nightmare
Johnson is hiding or taking the easy option.Werner has been in acres of space. Johnson doesn't want the ball.
When he does he goes backwards. I'm not he's actually a winger!Werner has been in acres of space. Johnson doesn't want the ball.
We look disjointed, kulu and Bentancur not gelling yet.By his lofty standards, been his most disappointing showing in our shirt for me. Not showing for the ball, not taking it on the turn. Need more from him
Arguably Kulu has been worse but never gets taken off. Could be any of the front three / four tbhhe will be first off for sure.
Thank fudge I’m not mad thenWerner in particular 3/4 times could have been put through....Not saying it's easy to do as City obviously aren't giving us much time on the ball but behind their back line is where the space is and our wide forwards can only exploit it if they are fed.
Pace in behind is city's weakness , Johnson could still cause some damage.Got to get Maddison on the pitch. I reckon take Johnson off, stick Kulu at RW, to have Maddison and Bentancur at CAM ahead of PEH.
It's not because they went to warn weather training. They ARE better passers of the ball than us. They are better passers of the ball than virtually everyone in Europe. We aren't even playing with our first choice midfield. What did you expect?
Kulu has been awfulArguably Kulu has been worse but never gets taken off. Could be any of the front three / four tbh
Ridiculous isn't it. We have Gill and Skipp to save the day.Yes a bit frightening they can bring on Doku, Grealish and De Bruyne
