I notice we’re pushing far more up when going forward, same as midweek.

Or to show faith and belief and trying to man manage the situation.

Mahrez had a great season last year.

I'm not saying I would have started him over Foden either, but he's the boss and has some success in the game at what he does.

However, to suggest it cannot ALSO be about what you wrote is also naive as his City career is on the line.

Looking like Wednesday performance was a one off and he has reverted to type.

Back passing and ballistic crosses that invariably end up going out of play far side...

That makes no sense. He’s showing “belief and faith” in Mahrez, but at the same time showing he has no belief or faith in Foden (who will be at the club longer than Mahrez hopefully).

Please stop making excuses. It’s embarrassing

TBH Stones is starting to look quite reassured and him and Diaz look good

Hope I don’t put the kiss of death on him

Totally individual goal though, doesn't even look to see of there is someone better off than him. Never a team player.
