Looked like Dolan stamped on Saka intentionally to me, hopefully it's not as bad as it looked but I reckon he'll be out for a while.Just seen a picture of Sakamotos gash, (ooh matron).
Not nice but probably preferable to a break or ligament damage
Edit - he could have one of them as well, shit
EMC 5?
I'm abroad and watched it on TV , even the wife said the dirty bastard did it on purpose.Looked like Dolan stamped on Saka intentionally to me, hopefully it's not as bad as it looked but I reckon he'll be out for a while.
It was good to see his teammates give him plaudits for his hand in the goal , they know he's a good player and want him to do wellHard to pick a stand out player tonight. Midfield three were brilliant and so was Haji and BTA.
Wilson still gives me a heart attack at times, but I do love how much he grates on the opposition players and even got a yellow card out of one.
EMC still looks a bit off the pace to me and lacking that confidence, but great assist and hopefully he can kick on
And he was frustratingly just in the wrong place for a tap in at times due to a deflection or a badly placed pass/cross .I actually thought EMC played well , can't remember him doing much wrong and got an assist , his best game for city so far
Bit harsh on Sakamoto mate. Thought he looked good until he came off injured.Wilson 8
Van Erwijk 7
Thomas 7
Kitching 6 (better second half but dreadful first)
Bidwell 8
Eccles 8.5 motm
Sheaf 8
Rudoni 8
Sakamoto n/a (gash looks horrific)
Thomas-Asante 8
Wright 7.5
Mason-Clark 7
Latibeudiere 5
Torp 5
Simms 5
I love him , he's one of my favourite players but I thought he still looked tentative tonight . He wasn't alone in that don't get me wrong but it was good to see EMC play well so hopefully will allow Tats time to heal up fullyBit harsh on Sakamoto mate.

I'm pretty sure him being the exact opposite of tentative is what got him injured! Properly went in for a 50/50 and was unlucky to come out with an injury as bad as it is.I love him , he's one of my favourite players but I thought he still looked tentative tonight .

I didn't mean the tackle as he has always punched above his size , was more on his movement and areas he was trying to receive the ballI'm pretty sure him being the exact opposite of tentative is what got him injured!

There were times tonight he reminded me of McAllister with his ability to find time and space to receive the ball .Really hope people will stop questioning Rudoni after that.
He’s already an important player for us and will continue to get better and better, he’s got a big role to play in the future success of our club.
Also, EMC needs to do more.
Surprised at the amount of positive comments, I thought he wasn’t great positionally, his decision making was poor and on the ball he was wasteful.
However, it’s glaringly obvious it’s a confidence thing (isn’t it always) and he obviously has talent, as per his stats last year. He’s going to get a little run in the team and I think that’ll really help him.
Oncre it clicks he’ll come good. He certainly has the physical attributes to be effective at this level which is a great start.
See my Gary Mc comparisons above ,obviously Rudoni has a way to go but his style tonight was very reminiscentThink Rudoni is much better a bit deeper. He’s not a 10 IMO he’s a very good 8 though.
All you can ask for from a player low on confidence/ out of form is to work hard and give their best . EMC did that and with a bit of confidence and a run will hopefully see him come goodHe was better today but I still don’t see it with him in terms of end product.
Yeah agree, although not as bad as I first thought when I saw Eccles reaction. I assume now he just doesn't like blood but the reaction made me think it was a potential career ending injury.Looked like Dolan stamped on Saka intentionally to me, hopefully it's not as bad as it looked but I reckon he'll be out for a while.
Unless he thought a bone was poking out or something?Yeah agree, although not as bad as I first thought when I saw Eccles reaction. I assume now he just doesn't like blood but the reaction made me think it was a potential career ending injury.
Maybe (unless you mean like Liam Kelly of course)Unless he thought a bone was poking out or something?
Watched quite a bit of EMC at Peterborough from January onwards and liked what I saw from him.Also, EMC needs to do more.

Sounds like you have entrenched yourself with an opinion about meI've said it before and I'll say it again , you entrench yourself with an opinion and never yield it .
Are you related to Grendel?
Completely second all of those comments. It was his best showing so far (not hard). I could finally see what he offers to the team. But generally played far too narrow, limited our width on the right and decision making at both ends was bad.Also, EMC needs to do more.
