It may be a tad stronger but it's not light and day different.
I'm only going on the videos and show-reel, but he looks an exciting prospect. He looks like a marriage between Gross and Knockaert in terms of Gross' vision, creativity but also good quick feet and a good dribbler like Knockaert...
Although it is hard to speculate exactly how he will be utilised by GP, he looks to me to be perfectly suited to playing in a CAM or CF position. He looks to have vision, good passer, good finisher, both footed, quick. All the signs from the stats/show-reel are good. I'm far more confident on...
Wow, really!?
The same Mahrez that was voted the best player in the league a couple years back?
Zaha is a very good player no doubt, but he isn't as good as what City currently have. There are rumours that Sane may be off to Bayern though, so if that happens then there is a chance. Think...
Remember wactching him for Deportivo a few times last season on Sky. Against Real Madrid, he gave Sergio Ramos a torrid time and he should have scored a couple in that game. Of all the names of players we were linked with last January, he was the one I was genuinely excited about.
Two goals...
The only way to approach away to Man City is damage limitation. It's a defensive drill trying to concede as few as possible and hope to poach something on the break. Our goal difference thus far is great compared to others around us already and will be worth another point later on in the season...
We were really really bad. Like, woeful.
One positive to take from it is that Bissouma looked very good when he came on, he could be an absolute gem and in my opinion must start the next game.
Oh well, lots more games to go!

A very familiar looking team, would have been nice to have seen Alireza in there from the start
I used to cut my sons toast into quarters, but now he's 10 years old he's progressed onto big boy rectangle halves.
For myself, it depends on my mood. If I fancy hot toast straight from the toaster then I tend to drench in butter and leave it whole. If however I'm having my toast as part of a...
Quintero of Colombia. He looks like a real quality player and has me worried about tonights game.
I also really like Banega of Argentina. Although he is playing I think for Sevilla in Spain so could be classed as a 'usual suspect'.
I think it has already been mentioned, but he didn't look fit to me. He is a very good player but not on the same level as the Messi's and Ronaldo's of this world. Looked like he was trying to do it by himself yesterday when actually if the team generally were more patient (and he let Coutinho...
Messi in my opinion is the best footballer to have ever lived. The only thing letting him down is 'failure' at international level (despite reaching a world cup final), but no one player makes a team.
I thought the outcry was with him winking/laughing as Salah was going off? Whether it was a foul or not, you can't suggest that he was intentionally trying to injure him. It was the awkward way he fell that injured him, not a dirty tackle.
Messi is a better footballer than Ronaldo. He has a bigger impact on the game generally, always involved in build up play, more assists, better from set pieces, better vision. Barca were 2-0 down away to Sevilla at the weekend without Messi on the pitch, he comes on with 20 minutes to go being...
I think if Southgate wants to take a 'plan b' style target man on the plane as part of the squad as back up to the world class Kane, then there is no better player available of this type than Glenn Murray.
Sadly I don't think he will take him, favouring the tried and tested Welbeck despite not...
I think he's far from the best English keeper we have, but experience counts for a lot in a world cup. I'd pick Butland if it were me as he's at least been to a big tournament as part of the squad before.Sorry state of affairs though on the keeper front at the moment!
