Did those lads look committed in the tackle to you? I thought I saw a reluctance to engage in the more physical aspects of the game.
Are we breeding snowflakes in football clubs as well as universities?
It is called having an opinion and while some may see it as a crime others don’t.
However my Dutch friend, riddle me this, in place of who (or perhaps whom, I am sure you will correct me in that haughty manner of yours). The German maestro, the Chilean petulant, surely neither of the midfield combatants?
Perhaps we revert to the traditional back 4 and allow him to try and deny midfield space to the magnificent footballing wizardry of the current City team?
The back and forth of football debate, marvellous.
Save for 2 obvious errors in recent matches I think GX has done very well. His pass to Kolasinac on Saturday which lead to the winner, a pre-assist I believe is what Ash would refer to it as, marvellous.
Even the Everton one he was not alone at fault but carried the blame.
Tactically I am unsure if AW has really nailed the current midfield balance but I am not going to blame the Albanian for that.
