He might have enormous talent, but he wasn't good today. I don't care how young he is tbh. I'm judging him on the same merits as every other player and for me he was definitely the worst of them in midfield. I'm not writing him off for the season, but thought he looked very poor today.

Worst player of the weekend. Looks hoirrrbly out of depth FFS, the kid is 19 and playing his first league game against the best team in the country! Looks very comfortable on the ball and well able to get stuck in. A snip for 7 million. Has bags of potential. Genuinely can't believe he's being castigated on here. Thought he was the most confident and brave player on the field for Arsenal. You could see the crowd are already behind him too. That kid will be a star by the end of the season. And everyone on here will be waxing lyrical about him embarrassingly enough. Ramsey was trash, as was Ozil, as was Xhaka. He was better than the three of those jokers combined. Absolutely crazy singling him out. Did you not see his air shot attempted interception that let Aguero in, numerous easy misplaced passes, no good being brave and getting on the ball if you can't pass it. Worst player of the weekend.

He definitely improved a bit in the 2nd half. Thought he was horrible in the first, kept losing possession and making horrible decisions. That missed interception should've led to a goal as well. Thought he improved in the 2nd half though, but his first half was on the same level as the ones James Perch put in for us in his first games. Looked way out of his depth.

Gonna end up on 74 I think. It's alright I guess, considering Aguero and Eriksen didn't perform at all.

Got 10 in 13 last season. Pretty decent.

Mendy looks clumsy to me. Doesn't look good at all.

Which 2 then? ;-) Curious as well.

Looking forward to seeing more of Bernardo this season. That’s a scary lineup, attacking options are mental. Jesus, Sané and de Bruyne on the bench David Silva not even there as well. It's ridiculous. Do think Liverpool has improved enough to give them at least a challenge until april

City XI | Ederson, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Mendy, Fernandinho ©, Gündogan, Bernardo, Mahrez, Sterling, Agüero Sterling from start straight away.

Felipe Anderson is going to struggle in this league.

Personally think Gini has looked a bit invisible. Fabinho will walk into that midfield and Milner has impressed me as well. They do have nice depth there though with Henderson, Gini, Milner, Keita and Fabinho.

Proper shit defending. If their striker is more intelligent he'll leave ''Willo'' behind.

The big central defender for Wolves is horrible.

We looked decent. Might actually finish top 10 again this season.

No way we win this. If we win this, knight Rafa.

Jesus. I thought you were quoting his earlier post from today so for some reason clicked on it, just to end up on the thread from the match from last year. Was scrolling through two-three pages, thinking fuck have I missed with Merino being back and all. Don't remember last time I was this confused.

WHAT? Never? You high?

Looks weak as piss. Never impressed me when I've seen him honestly. He had a great World Cup. He was alright, outshone by his 50 year old defensive partner.

Free kick all day that. Refs been poor.

£50m pass that

Looks weak as piss.

That's a yellow card? For what?

His vision has been horrendously bad at times this evening, why he tried to pass to someone who was about 5 yards offside is beyond me. Doesn't help when Rashford runs like a dumbass and Mata doesn't make a run at all. Not been good, but been better than the other two imo. At least trying to get involved. Mata's been OK imo, had some decent through balls etc etc. I've said this before but Rashford just isn't a CF, he has zero presence, he's a meh finisher and all in all just doesn't make the right runs.

Again Pereira has been very very good tonight. Every other time I've seen him, he's been shit.
