Would make absolute sense as he's one of few outfield players who has been around for a couple of seasons likely to play until Romero or Madison (vice captains ) are back fit - other prominent candidates :
- Davies : Likely to be dropped when Van de Ven comes back from injury v ManU
- Bentancur - May not complete 90 mins tonight, better to have captain playing 90 mins
Really dictated the game once moved inside tonight.
Not with the ball though, he saw fuck all of that, he did it with mind control.

Yet another awful game against a 2nd string Burnley team. Managed to provide the square root of fuck all for anything.
Absolutely no point playing him on the right, all though, he did managed a couple of crosses with his right foot.
Moved into the middle and beggers belief.
He is a work horse, but his ability to link play up, think fast and play the ball fast is beyond him.
Appauling game tonight.

Really poor tonight and has been off it for a wee while. He must have played some of the most minutes of any of our outfield players, probably suffering from a bit of burnout. Would be good to give him a rest, but our squad won't really allow it.
9 days rest, warm weather training - get him back to the creative demon we saw glimpses of this season.
I’m not gonna get on Kulu’s back too much, I think he’s a good player, technically very sound and has an excellent work ethic.
But we clearly have an inverted wide player issue in certain games (particularly against sides that defend deep) and he compounds it by cutting into the congested area every fucking time.
As I say I’m not one of those that dislike the bloke, he’s an asset for us, but if he’s going to play a lot of games on the right he needs to add another trick or 2 into his repertoire and find a way to be able to go both inside and outside his man.

Work rate of a God. But he is no winger and needs to play more centrally... also needs to think quicker and player the ball a lot faster.

Dragu done, now we can get back to being right about Kulusevski
The big difference being, Bernado Silva is doing all those things from midfield. As in proper midfield. Not floating around like a turtle in a windsock second strikery or right wingy “midfield”.
Aaaaand back to being wrong.
We missed every single one of our AMs: Maddison; Kulusevski; Lo Celso. Not to forget we missed Sarr and Bissouma in midfield as well, which would help in that department too.
Lots of 5s and 6s in the player ratings for the City FAC game. Talk about fucking grade inflation!!!!
But if that's a 5 or 6 I can see why some of the more deluded of you think he's such a good player. But from that 5 or 6 I can easily see him performing at a 7 or 8 without actually achieving a PL level performance.
