City back to normality. Despite winning last week I thought city were off it against Bournemouth, and if it wasn’t for Rayan Cherki, they would’ve ended up losing last week. Today was something you’d expect to see from City under Pep Guardiola, a real professional performance and they well deservedly smashed Crystal Palace 4-1. I’ll start off by talking about Palace. I worry for them this season. I’ve said this for a while now. You can’t keep selling and losing your best players/best ever manager and not expect things to go south. Despite city being an excellent side I thought palace looked really poor again tonight. Poor up front and even worse they’re so leaky at the back. You can’t expect to lose Guehi and Lacroix and then not to ship goals, tough season ahead for them I think. Onto City. Very convincing, Rayan Cherki has to start every single week. He is single-handedly the most entertaining player in the premier league and one of the most entertaining on the planet. Always forward thinking and the skill and technique he has is unbelievable, 2 assists last week, 2 goals this week (buzzing I have him in my FPL) a wonderful player. I thought Anderson was quietly good tonight. For the position he plays it’s easy to play well and go unnoticed and that’s what he did tonight, won the ball back well, some wonderful sprayed passes and showed city a glimpse of what they paid their money for. Normal service resumed for Erling Haaland, loves to play against palace and he enjoyed himself again tonight. 2 excellent finishes, especially the looping header, what a goal that was. Overall, a very professional classic city performance, and for palace. I worry about them big time.
