NACHO IS IMPROVING

Post by EMIR KONGI JAFFI JOFFA »

He only played about 17 minutes vs Stoke today but I noticed his first touch has improved quite a bit from what it used to be. He's also hustling more and winning 50/50 balls, hope he can keep it up cos the boy in s gold.

Lol,he's human never the less all this talk of first touch and chances he scores or misses he has committed has anyone bothered to ask why he was chosen ahead of other young players at city be the clubs third/second striker?
He obviously needs to play more games before you can asses anything about his ability but the little time he has been given he has done well,I think the experts at city know what he's capable of!

You heard the sound of a merry bell
Those who were rash and those who were not
Lost and made a spot of cash
He who gave the game away
May he Brynn in hell and rue the day

as mush as whether they buy/wear it might have equaled a flop of ideas but it still does not rewrite city's original reasoning

He played 4mins vs Middlesbrough today and almost scored. Not long enough to assess his hustle game but his movement is still top notch.

Even when he comes on in injury time, he fashions out a goal scoring opportunity. The boy will score plenty goals with playing time.

higher playing time does not equal higher goal score

Yes it does!

No playing time + talent = 0 chance to score goal

More playing time + talent = much better chance to score goals

If nacho gets time he will score, no doubt about that! It's simple arithmetic. :thumbs:
