Only 10 starts last season and 6 so far this season. Pep has been very stubborn about only playing him wide left in a very limited role. Whereas with Villa he was often more central and made driving runs with the ball.

Southgate, the moron, didn't pick Grealish until after he signed for City then always put him in that wide left role. His club form didn't justify a WC place but Carsley brought him back into the England team and he scored 2 goals in 4 games.
Yeah I want him to be loaned to Tottenham to play as an 8. He's unreal and getting the ball deep and driving through the press or winning a foul, his final ball might not be perfect but use him to get it to the guys who do that.

Doku made some bad decisions at the end then, does all the good work driving and pinning Brighton back so city can load the box but then instead of laying it off to De Bruyne he's trying to make the cross himself.

Even a half dead De Bruyne is a better option to cross it
 
Did Faes and Khusanov attend the same defending seminar?
Khusanovs been really good for us.

But without seeing it again, it was a shocker to concede. Wasn't his best game all round today.

Yeah, that one was poor. But imo he was our best by far today, the bigger problem for us was no-one giving him any options when he did get behind the defence. Time and time again he'd have the ball and rhe rest.of the time were playing catch up.

I would have liked to see him central, particularly pre-Gonzalez. He played a cup game there and was really.good but hasn't really been tried since.

Had a load of fitness problems in the past two years which hasn't helped. And now Doku is performing better.

But I think Pep has probably made up his mind.

He's a bit of paradox sometimes. Almost guaranteed to beat a man, drive to the byline and be threatening every time but often can't find the end product. Partly I think he's so unpredictable his teammates don't know where to go to either. With De Bruyne when he overlapped Haaland could know he'd find him at the back post. Doku is just random.

Good player but I think as he evolves he'll simply his passes
 
Spurs signed Sessegnon for what, 25-30 million?
Yup and played like 5 games and then released on a free

I did a bit of research a little while ago and from about 2019 to 2023 spurs signed like 350m in players and sold those same guys for like 100m

Emerson, Sessengnon, Sanchez, Moura, Lo Celso, Ndombele, Reguillon and a bunch more
