chinapig Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Lots of powerful, athletic youngsters from Premier League clubs but none of them have Alex's football brain from what I have seen.

pongo88 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 This tournament has been good if City want to sell Scott but not so good if the club want to keep him for a bit longer. His profile must have increased. I hope NP has a backup plan to sign a replacement / adjust the team formation if Scott goes in the summer.

formerly known as ivan Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Not only is it great to see him scoring but with a header as well. Arguably one of the biggest weaknesses of his from what I have seen. Doesn’t get as many of the plaudits as he doesn’t play for a premier league team but he has looked a level above most in this tournament.

Ivorguy Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Is this our best discovery since Big John? I am beginning to think it is Hope he stays for his own sake. Nige will keep his feet firmly on the ground - well obviously not when he is in the opposition’s penalty box! Could we dream that this is the quality player we have waited for for so long, the one that will take us up? I really think he might be. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely am not fussed about yellow cards for players like Scott and Williams…it’s part of their game, they play on the edge, the right side of the edge, and that’s what makes them stand out. I don’t even mind Williams getting suspended for totting up yellows, because it will probably mean he’s on the pitch a lot! 32 minutes ago, The Bard said: Watching the game earlier, he'd be better at RWB than the 2 who've played there so far.
