Tek a boo son, tek a fookin boo @Joshua called this shit.

Willian has proven to be a marvelous replacement for Mkhitaryan.

@Darkseid Looking spot on with the call on this one mate. We’ve been had.

I’m not exactly pleased to be correct. We’ll be paying this fool until 2023.

The other forum favourites were no better.

You must be watching different games if you think Saka, Pepe or whoever, are creating chances for fun. No one is getting chances to score and no one is really creating anything.

Seemed like a weird signing from the get go and is proving he’s on the downslide of his career. Be a decent squad player but shouldn’t be a first teamer. These type of signings are the ones that annoy me the most about the club.

If he’s not benched for the Leeds game, Arteta definitely has lost his mind.

It’s so sad the contract we offered this guy and what’s even more Sad is Pepe isn’t deemed good enough to start over him and Pepe cost 70 million.

I think most people would say PĂ©pĂ© is the better option out there but he probably doesn’t provide as much security / ball retention as Willian (in Arteta’s eyes anyway).

I remember when Pep took over, City transformed quite quickly into a very attack-minded side. They conceded a lot but their identity was clear. Arteta has wanted to install a defensive structure first, and he’s too frightened to bring in the risk / attack side of things now.

Not playing Pépé is the biggest example of his lack of balls to actually try and bring the fight to other teams.

He doesnt look good, but nobody does in this system. I mean I wanted Xhaka out and still do but nothing improved in the midfield.

Xhaka out menas less creativity, less technic feet, less vision.

#798

How? Its Arteta first mistake was trying too build around him in the first place.

Ehm
 maybe I used an unproper word. “Have feet” in italian means he’s good with the ball.

Is he though? I watched that bloke for a long time since he plays for my NT. Doesn’t strike me as technically gifted at all.
