“He shouldn’t be allowed back on the training ground next week, he completed just 1 pass and has Zero shots”- Manchester City Fans has warned Pep Guardiola to get rid of one of his players who will not allow him to win the Champions league
After a 2-1 victory over Wolves, Manchester City secured three points at Molinuex thanks to a late goal from John Stones.
After seven games, the host team had only one point to their name. However, they quickly caught the champs off guard and moved into the lead inside seven minutes, allowing Jorgen Strand Larsen to wash past Ederson. Before Josko Gvardiol scored an incredible equalizer, City’s goalie produced yet another excellent save to keep City in the match.
Although Stones’ goal from a Phil Foden corner survived a VAR check, Pep Guardiola’s team had the better of the second half and had to wait until the very end to win. These are the City player ratings from the match.
Ederson: Another crucial stop that kept his team in the game when City was down 1-0. 7.
Lewis: Caught in the neutral zone as Larsen scored the game’s first goal. persistently pushed forward but was unable to make an impact. Six
Dias: Despite a couple mishandled passes, he put on a respectable show and came dangerously close to becoming the hero with a sloppy attempt that Sa tipped wide. 7.
Stones: A solid defensive player who let up the goal and irritated Guardiola with some of his choices, but he also scored the game’s winning goal late on. 7.
Gvardiol: He conceded the goal, but he got up to tie the score with a tremendous effort and contributed a lot of great defensive play. 8
Kovacic: Despite getting better as the game progressed, he still (understandably) does not seem to provide the squad the same control as the elite Rodri. Six
Gundogan: He showed some good passes and off-ball dashes, but not enough to suggest he was closest to Haaland on the field. Six
Silva: Always a menace wherever he went, not only did he do the running but he also created a goal threat that caused Wolves constant problems. 7.
Savinho: One of City’s best players, he plays great defense and poses a danger offensively. However, he could have finished more skillfully. 7.
Doku: Despite having a lot of the ball, he made too many bad mistakes on both wings, even if he earned his position against Fulham with a nice goal. 5.
Haaland: It was a futile day with little ball play, but when he did get a chance to play, he was not at his best. 5.
