And we would tell him to get fucked.
That would be very, very silly in my opinion
I kinda agree that he hasn't really pushed on since he joined City, and he still needs to be more consistent when striking a ball to shoot. Just a brilliant player already though. Quick and intelligent, strong as an Ox on the ball, unselfish, able to beat 1 or 2 men, tactically flexible. If he was available and wanted to come back I'd be all over it. Imagine having Mane, Salah and Sterling as wide forward options? He could cover the AMC role too. Plus right wing back
Back on topic to Woodburn - I think we'll see him get between 15-25 appearances this season, depending on how he performs when he gets his chances. All the league Cup games - lets take a negative approach and say 3 full 90 minutes. FA Cup, the same, another 3, leaving him between 9 and 19 across: the weaker teams, let's say there are 10 fixtures for him there, games that have already been put to bed, 6? another 10? Then, if he's performed in the chances he's got, maybe he gets a legitimate shot as a rotation option at home against a bottom 12 team, say Stoke. 2/3 here chances here, say, dependent on form.
Yes, the above is all speculation and hypotheticals, but I think the boy has shown some glimpses of top talent. The finish against Bilbao was excellent. First team worthy for sure. Sturridge puts that in, we're all saying it's because he's the best finisher at the club. His awareness, movement, eye for a pass have also stood out. On the flip side, he's at times been careless with his distribution as well as being caught on the ball.
