If they do lose him, even for a couple of games, that would be bad.
Because I felt he's been looking really good the last couple of months.
He's not sort of, he's walking around the pitch.
He hardly ever breaks out of a walk now.
The mentality, the know-how, the decisions, the technique, you know, everything.
He's always doing the right thing when he's on the ball.
He's not running around the pitch too much.
Not that he ever really was, but he was notably a more physical player when he first arrived at Man City compared to what he now is.
But, yeah, it's going to be an interesting last few weeks at least.
I mean, because we've done a lot of complaining about the Premier League season this year.
And there was, I don't know if you saw that graph towards the end of last week.
I think it was from the Times.
I'm not 100% sure who had put it up, but essentially it was showing that Open Play XG had decreased across the board.
It was like every team was down.
So overall it had been down by like 20, 15, 20%, you know, since last season.
And the only exceptions to this were Manchester United.
Remember, we had a really awful season last year.
And I think Everton maybe were the other ones who were slightly more, but fractionally more.
And every other team was down.
That's been the sort of trend of it.
