The accolade of cult hero is banded about on here far too easily.

Nacho scored 8 goals for City last season in all competitions. 8 goals.. 

Cult hero my arse

Yeah he was also top scorer the year before, calm down

[Beechey]

My god, Youri's passing

[KFS]

Why does Praet always shoot against the defender? 

[StriderHiryu]

Tielemans cutting passes have been great in this game. 

[The Quick Brown Fox]

Youri, showing what we will be missing when he goes.

Why did Dan try to close the cross down?

He’s not a right back. He should have though. He got caught in open space and basically did nothing. 
 

Having watched it again, Vestergaard was marking space and was slow to react, however that isn’t exactly his strong point. If we’re playing Vestergaard, we can’t allow those sort of crosses to come in.

Slows the game down doing it as well.

Another player you think is a cult hero?

😂

Incredible how many excuses people dig up for Vestergaard, the bloke is just so so bad man, regardless of set up. ~£25 million between him and Danny Ward and folk wonder why we've got no one coming in

[Sampson]

Like how Praet drives the ball forward. So much more positive compared to Mendy constantly passing sideways and backwards.

[Claridge]

Elliott spot on with preat, gets in the right positions, but rarely does anything with it

[Staff]

Give the young lads a go Davies

You clearly don't understand what a cult hero is 😂. Also just pointing out you've used last seasons stats but ignored the season he outscored Vardy

You would almost excuse him for his lack of out and out defensive ability (yes I know he can press), if he could shoot on target and get more goals. His passing and movement are great but he’s not b2b because he can’t tackle or shoot.

Give the young lads a go Davies you disabled

He is basically the definition of a footballing cult hero

[Bourbon Fox]

Thought Tielemans could have got a shot off there

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Kel also scored the only goal of our FA Cup semi against Southampton the season we won it.

[glebe_sydneyfox]

Sit on your sofa and whinge about Nacho all you want. He's doritos

Cos he’s rubbish?

 

Even attempting to pressure the crosser, just applies a bit of pressure stops it being so perfect.
