TheGoodJoe: Untested youngsters playing U23 is not the same as first team football. The transition is not that easy, look at Chuba Akpom great at U18 & U21 but couldn't cut it to the next level. Adarabioyo is no where near the standard required City youth players are not ready yet, if at all. The team is not old as you have put it, that is a very weak excuse. Consider the current Balon Dor winner is Ronaldo who is literally 32. 3 Likes |

TheGoodJoe: What policy You argued with me about the youth policy. City have been doing arrangements for donkey years when they were at Platt lane same thing. I have said facilities don't make the best team philosophy, vision good players and good coaches. Until Pep humbles himself and starts to influence the recruitment and coaching process and philosophy at ground level, status quo remains. Compare Brendan Rogers as soon as he came to Liverpool he spent a lot of time at the academy. He Brought forward more players from the youth teams than any other manager in the history of Liverpool modern football. He also sacked with immediate effect Rodolfo and arrangement man Frank McParland in one day. Where did the corrupted Rodolfo end up Manchester city, NUFF SAID. 1 Like |

Bravo has saved 57.41% of shots on target in the Premier League (18 of 31) That puts him 14th overall in save percentage, among keepers to have played 15 games or more Burnley's Tom Heaton has the highest save percentage with 76.32% (87 of 114) Bravo has conceded 14 goals from the last 22 shots on target faced Courtesy:BBC |

tbaba1234:Bravo don suffer ooo. Football playing gone wrong. E don tey I know se this guy won't be able to cope in d EPL considering d leagues's intensity. He was exposed in city's first leg league game against Man-u. He was woeful. But he escaped due man-u players lack of cutting edge in front of goal. Pep should know 1000dribbles, 99% ball possession can never be equated to 'a' goal scored. As someone said "THIS IS EPL" the earlier he understand this d better for him. English fans are not patient. They want result n not philosophy. I won't be suprised if city fails to qualify for champions league. Though TheGoodJoe will not be happy wit this. *takes cover* 2 Likes |

Please those of you who have seen Henry Onyekuru play, how good is he compared to Zim's Karma Billiat? They have same body frame and operate from same wing. Does he have feet as quick as Billiat''s, does he posses same trickery, dribbles, close control, composure and accuracy as Billiat? I saw a sweet young (20) full back in Bouanga of Gabon, quick feet, full of running, good passer of the ball, intelligent crosser and of course clinical tackler. Please compare Tyrone Ebuehi to Bouanga if uv seen Ebuehi play mbok. Tbaba, goodjoe, forgiveness, BascoVanVeli, bigblangston, goldfish80 et al 1 Like |

BascoVanVeli:Errmm, let's not toll that line o. Because Czech conceded 4 against Liverpool is not the bone of contention, bravo is a poor keeper period and he is conceding too many goals o. You can't buy a striker and keep claiming he can defend well while he is failing to score 2 Likes |

ChrisKels: I do not know Karma Billiat but for Onyekuru, he has the potential of being world class if he refines certain parts of his game. He hugs the ball a lot and does not use his teammates enough. For positives, he has lightening pace and great close control and trickery. His goal return shows that he is growing in composure in front of goal. Ebuehi is a traditional right back from what i have seen, not explosive but will do a good job for you at right back or left back. 1 Like |

Segadem: No, don't say that, those goals went in due to the accuracy applied by the Everton players, you can't blame Bravo for that, he is good with his feet not his palms remember. He was bought to use his feet more than his palms. Also don't blame City strikers for failing to score, blame Pep neither but rather blame Everton keeper for being too brilliant... |
