Alex Scott and Elliot Anderson are English midfielders who can do any role you ask of them because they are capable

carries/crisp passes to connect final 3rd,win duels,engines to run for 90 mins,receive outside a block,quick decision making/release to raise tempo but can also dictate

—all rounders

Though I want Ederson to stay for more than 5 years but if he decides to leave, Anatoliy Trubin is the Manchester City guy.

Fans against Ederson staying for another season are just deluded.
Imagine kicking out Ederson for Diogo Costa or Lucas Chevalier.

He is the keystone of the Arch.

The best thing I saw today was the combination play of Cherki and Aït-Nouri, one two play and boom
June 23, 2025 at 11:08 AM
Manchester City fans have a common point —to play Cherki at Right Wing drifting inside.

—Locking a player like him to one side should be declared as a crime. You want the best of Cherki,let him roam freely ,accessing all possible zones with his gifted abilities

If Arsenal fails to get Rodrygo,the best available choice would be Eze

Erling Haaland isn't one of the most clinical 9s in the world.

Attack was never the problem for Manchester City,

—defending the space and transitions was the issue
—playing high line but unable to eat up the space behind
—injuries
—small squad means tired legs

Be it PSG or Real Madrid Man City dominated them in the 1H and rest is history

Hansi Flick is one of the best short term managers in the world.

—Started this journey by winning sextuple as an Interim manager for Bayern Munich.

Now Barcelona, his teams are usually an unstoppable force.

Divin Mubama,future is bright Manchester City

—great box movement and instinct
—win duels (aerial and ground),hold up the ball,run the channels and link other attackers
—physically imposing,using upper body strength to hold off allowing attackers to join in
—spatial awareness

Exequiel Palacios🇦🇷 newly linked box to box MF of Bayer Leverkusen

—pressing machine
—line breaker,sharp forward passing
—great sense of timing for making late runs into the opposition area
—versatile and can play a number of MF roles
—tempo setter

All in all a bundle of energy

Angelo Stiller is a phenomenon,a deep lying playmaker who can dictate and direct attacks from multiple positions

—exceptional composure under pressure
—manipulate opposition blocks due to his high technical base
—exploit underloaded zones by dropping deep

Bellingham developed a little striker inside him, plus his quality as an AM.

—Late arrival to meet crosses;
—Sniffs where the ball is gonna land in the box;
—Channel runs;
—Smart positioning;
—Strikes well with his head.

In a nutshell, provides what Joselu offered last season.

Don't know how people hate Adam Wharton🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

—every single touch gives a sense of calmness,
possesses a diverse arsenal of passes in his repertoire

—excellent screening the backline and providing the extra protection they need from the midfield

—second-phase controller,ceiling⬆️

🧵

I prefer Nico Schlotterbeck(25) 🇩🇪above Ousmane Diomande and it's a no brainer.

The right profile centre half Manchester City needs right now
—effective progressor
—cover the space behind easily
—leader
—won 65% of his aerial and 60% duels.
— He plays 7.81 progressive passes
