The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

For a centre-forward, you think, I mean, come on, it's not as if he's been a regular.

Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

And then he does really well and then you're left out.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

But then, obviously, he realised he'd made a huge mistake in making the changes and had to change it again.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

And he was able to spot that and do that.

And then Pedro comes on and gets a goal, gets an assist and just helped turn it around for Chelsea.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

But it was a brilliant game.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

I mean, West Ham were...

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

superb in the first half and they were really dangerous, particularly down the right-hand side, which is why Garmaccio got took off at half-time because he couldn't cope with Wan-Bissaka going down the right-hand side.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

But that was a big, big game for Chelsea and a right kick in the nuts for West Ham, that was.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

He's had a really, really good start, hasn't he?

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

That was the first one when the Premier League started, yeah.

Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

leeway if you like yeah and also for him I guess because he's how young he is and hasn't I know he's been at Hull and Strasbourg and what have you but hasn't managed in it at that higher level yet so the quicker he got the wins behind him then it was going to be the better it is for him and in front of his you always want to make an impression in players and the first time you walk into the dressing room and you want to do this and say this so whatever he's saying then you can back it up

with the results, then it gives you more power as a coach or as a manager, doesn't it?

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

They've got some options, haven't they?

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

It's unbelievable, haven't they?

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

You have to get Cole Palmer in that team.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

Obviously, there's no doubt.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

For me, it's him and 10 others.

The Rest Is Football
Ekitike Shines, Carrick Keeps Winning & Man City Drop Points Again

Yeah.

That was also a big result, by the way, for Forest and Leeds and Palace with Chelsea win as well.
