I really don’t think it is a case of consecutive managers not fancying him Under Enzo he was still only 18/19, our defence was doing well and he still got a bit of involvement - he maybe could’ve played a bit more but he was still young with only a couple of “meh” loans under his belt Under Cooper he probably wasn’t quite ready yet for the Prem and a loan was the correct decision and he had a very good loan at Oxford showing he is more than good enough at this level This is the first season where he should be getting proper game time and the manager isn’t giving him any at all so far

The only position he should ever be an option for us this season is behind the striker He has no pace or ability to go past players to play as a winger, we would just end up seeing a lot more of his "winning" free kicks and we would have zero threat down the left because Thomas doesn't overlap, and he always drops way too deep to play as a striker Kick him off set pieces as well ffs

Martí Cifuentes Post Match Cifuentes on the game MC: “It’s always great to get a late goal. I’m happy for Bobby and to be able to celebrate with our fans at the end, it was important emotionally. “It was definitely not the result we wanted. We played against a good team that defended deep and defended well. “It was disappointing to concede this early goal. We started the game really well. It was a strong first half, having control, getting into the last third, perhaps we missed a little in the last third to create more open chances, but I felt the team was growing in the first half. “Unfortunately through the minutes we started to get more emotional and we had some turnovers around minute 70/75 and we started to be more up and down. “We had to chase a result and they got these two situations after the free-kick and on the counter. It feels like we lost a little bit there. “I value the personality of the players to get through the emotions of the game at least to get an important point.” Fourth time in seven games City have been trailing at half-time? MC: “It’s difficult for me to remember other chances than the goal West Brom scored in the first half. For many minutes we were quite good. “So it’s definitely disappointing to concede in a situation where we were trying to pressing high. We should have controlled that better. “But football, like life, is about challenges and getting through these difficult periods, these ups and downs, and when I look back at these games and since I’ve been here, what I value most, because I know we will grow in the way we are playing, it’s the personality and the character the team is showing. It’s not easy to go through all these emotions again and again, and have the energy and the capacity to get something positive from those games.” De Cordova-Reid impact? MC: “He should be disappointed if it’s an own goal! Bobby has shown a lot of good things. He can play in many different positions. It’s important for him to get this goal in terms of confidence. "What I value the fact that players from the bench are adding positive things. It was good to see Victor coming back after a long absence. Everybody is having their moment and helping the team. I’m sure it will be the case on Tuesday. We have a quick turnaround and the fact we have a strong squad will be very important.” Did you get a yellow card? MC: “Hopefully not! Someone on the bench got a yellow card, but I don’t know what happened.” It's since been confirmed that it was Hamza Choudhury who received a yellow.

Coady winner Just not sure which team it will be for

@kingfox GET DYCHE IN!

Soumare somehow gonna get another 90 minutes

Martí needs to wake up ****ing quickly and realise we cannot persist with Ayew as a striker ****ing pack it in mate

Get Carranza on at half time please Martí

Need to drop James into a 3 with Winks and Soumare He is seeing none of the ball

Did we genuinely just play him in a few games to get him to sign a pro deal and then boot him to the bottom of the squad pecking order?

Wouldn’t surprise me if his opportunities are even more limited once Souttar is back as well

I reckon it won’t be long until Ayew starts dropping that deep that Jakub can make runs beyond him

Ayew needs dragging off the pitch instantly tonight if he ends up at right back again whilst we are in possession

He would have Bobby Reid on one of the wings, guaranteed

Would you rather 2 players we know won’t change anything off the bench or two youth players who COULD and also help them develop

Only if you base his ability from one half of football, where he was good the second half and also all his previously ability shown at this level Get Jakub out of goal as well if that is the case

He would need 2 centre backs to be injured or suspended to get a go

The one Jordan James did in the first half vs Cov was one of the worst corner attempts I have seen in years Not sure whether it was a really badly failed attempt at a routine or he just absolutely scuffed it

Really can’t see him dropping back into the Championship, someone in the Prem would definitely pick him up if he was available on loan
