Two seasons carrying Messi at PSG is showing.He definitely wasn’t as good a footballer the first time around.
It’s like he knows he’s our best player now and demands to have the ball constantly.
He’s brilliant.
A bit over the top but fully agree with the sentiment….he's massively underrated. We struggled to replace him when he went to carry Messi for a few seasons. At the time Man City were losing Fernandes in midfield I thought Pep should have snapped him up….brilliant ball winner. We call him the insurance man.He's one of our best players this century. He might even be the best. It's certainly worth considering. I'll just always love him and what he's done. I think with a little more luck he goes down as one of the best ball winners ever full stop. For me he is, but circumstances and team success will never have him seen as such generally. Phenomenal player.
To be fair the entire team should constantly be fuming at that little beaut as well as Donkey Doucs!Did anyone see how much he was fuming at Jack Harrison 2nd half. Gueye was completely free, asked for the throw in to be passed to him and Harrison threw it 20 yards backwards. Gueye just looked at him, shook his arms in despair as if to say "wtf are you doing".
pretty sure statistically gana is the top midfielder in the prem for ball recoveries or somethingGana had been great but he’s 35, we need a first choice CM imo not someone
Who competes with him and garner,
This squad has been bottom half for a reason,
We need to up our standards
Our best player.
