All better than Saka because they do stepovers and because football's brightest pundit, Rio Ferdinand, said so.

He's basically our Rodri, or the Rodri of attackers - he's become so good, so consistent that what he does is normalized and expected. That's been working against Rodri for ages and it's happening with Saka now.
Country: Norway
I think he needs more competition for his spot. That would also be helpful for him in terms of rotation.
Has nothing to do with personality. It's his style of play. He is not the most explosive or technically gifted. Most people watching the game don't understand nuance and judge everything from a shallow perspective. If he was more technical and explosive, he'd be the best player in the world because he understands the game at an elite level already. He really always did even from the academy. So cognitively and physically he is elite (in terms of balance and strength for his size), but he doesn't have that extra gear of explosiveness and agility or the elite touch, close control and shooting techniques that players like RVP, Bergkamp, Messi had. Messi was a freak cause when he was younger he had both elite physical gifts and elite technique, elite spatial awareness and vision. Only thing he was missing was size and upper body strength.

Hmmm bit of a random comparison. Vastly different roles in their respective teams. Rodri influences almost every defensive and offensive aspect of City’s play. Saka’s remit and influence is far more compartmentalised. I still don’t think he’s reached anything like his true potential but Rodri is the closest you can get to faultless consistency.
Country: Canada
My comparison to Rodri was regarding Saka's consistency and the fact that their excellence in their roles are normalized and expected such is their consistent performances.

Rodri actually gets his flowers though…

Not sure about this. I love him, but Saka does have bad games. Numbers are decent this season but i've definitely seen better seasons from him if we are talking the eye test.
Country: Canada
This is the best season he's ever had mate.

I've seen him look better. For me, he's spent half of the games looking injured or at least not fully fit and not in full flight. He's certainly got me off my seat more in the past.
Country: Canada
Yeah see this is the thing we've been talking about the last few pages my friend; you're judging him based on nebulous criteria when you look at his numbers and underlying statistics, he's one of the best wingers in the game this season.
There's no stats for "xLimping" - maybe he limps around because opposition defenders are allowed to kick the guy with impunity?

I'm not having a go at his limping, i'm saying to me its looked like he's played a lot of games not fully fit. Like i said, his numbers are impressive this season and he had a brilliant 1st CL campaign, but just going off the eye test, he's certainly lost some of his explosive pace, and illusiveness, maybe its because he's put on a little more muscle, maybe its the number of games catching up with him, maybe its teams playing differently against us, i don't know.

The cope in the last few pages, I see A-M is now focusing on the defensive numbers and crying about everyone hating him. Funny guys 
Meanwhile the guy I got pelted for rating on a similar level is about to sweep the player of the season awards.
