Jack is not part of their game at all. He gets the ball every now and then, and passes it sideways. In the first half, he once tried a through pass and failed, and all of city's bench yelled at him for losing the ball. Pep jumped up and showed signs like "what are you doing moron". They showed Jack on the feed thereafter, and at that moment, I felt for Jack. He's in the wrong place, and he knows it. He had a good game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel frustrated not so much for him, but because he's an exciting player to watch when he's being a bit of a wild card. But that's not the Pep way. I think he did well enough as part of their system, but he'll never be the entertainer he could be while at City. I wonder if he cares though.

a m ole Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 From what I saw he had a good game, had Coufal biting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Thought he played well and looked to be driving at players a lot more. Should have got an assist had Haaland not fluffed it. Incredibly powerful header though. would have taken Areola's head off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted August 8, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2022 Ok, well if you guys think that was a good game then fine. To me, he did nothing that a much lesser player couldn't do. Completely wasted in this team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly better than some games last season but very meh and looking nothing like a player like him is but a big standard left sided player.

Pinebro Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 1st half was very poor but he came into life the 2nd half. Huge season for him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted August 9, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2022 He was decent. I imagine he'll need to improve more but not a bad start to his season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MellbergsBeard Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I don’t really recall him getting much of the ball, Cancelo is too attacking for him though, there always in the same place on the pitch. I suppose that’s the downside of having two right footed players on the left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
