I believe in Ferran. Ages ago I watched a training video and the quality of his touch and finishing was brilliant. The movement you see him make in games is good and improving. He’s a first teamer for Spain, he’s on the edge of being a worldy.
I think this is his breakthrough season, I want to see more of him not less of him and then watch him get seduced by Real.

100%.
Get the lad in the team, he still needs a bit more physicality, but he can get there if he's played.

I think Pep should have a 'plan B' formation built around Torres, use him as a more traditional striker, then switch from a false nine formation in the second half (after the half time team talk) just to fuck with the opposition manager's head. We would end up with a few cricket scores.

OP: The original premise of this thread is complete cack. Because a player does not play every minute of every game, they are not wanted? Nah. But you could quite easily get a job with daily mirror or the manchester evening news.
FT is being looked after. He is only 21 and he played all last season, then most of the Euros without a break and then had very little rest this summer. Other players like Stones, Gundogan and Zinchenko are getting their summer holidays in late. Torres is having a little break for his own benefit. Everyone else will at some point before Christmas as well.
City are going to play 50-odd matches this season. We have had nine. There is plenty of time for him, and everyone else, to do the business.

I get that Tokyo, but surely if someone is in form it’s best to play them whilst they’re on a good run? Rather than - they play well but then get benched and by the time they’re back they’ve lost that form?

Thanks to Pep's Barca buddie Enrique, Ferran is out for next 6 weeks - like Sergio last season - injured when we needed him most

That'll be three or four substitute appearances he'll miss
