Say what you need about him, but he turns up, never fakes an injury. But we are talking about Phil Foden.
who did well when he came on last night and has been decent since the turn of the year
I don't think he was, mate. Except the penalty yesterday, he was terrible. Put players under unnecessary pressure with his passing, same as Arsenal when he killed our momentum with that pass.
But what annoyed me was his lack of support for Rico and Akanji. Rico was left alone with arguably the best left side in the world Mendy and the cunt.
we watched a different game then mate
I personally thought he was totally ineffective, he had one shot on target producing a routine save, one run across the edge of the penalty area trying to manufacture a shot and failed, played the ball wide and it came to nothing. Then there was the penalty, it was a foul in the box, he wasn’t going anywhere though. The rest of his play consisted of trying to stop the out ball on the right, I don’t remember him putting in the hard yards, making a stern tackle, just putting some bloody effort in. No, sorry not impressed…..great player obviously but not last night. Grealish was our man of the match and he only played a quarter of the game.
grealish motm? laughable. the pass for the opener aside, he looked heavy legged from the first minute. may well have been carrying an injury but dare i say he looks a bit fat?
