    The shot was not powerfull enough. Thats the issue. R

    That is not a simple square pass.

    I dont think many players have that pass in them in the prem.

    I do rhink that most strikers get more behind the shot amd score.

    Mbueno from brentford probabl buries that.

    Work on shot power.

      This. I don’t mind my striker being selfish the issue was it was a horrible shot.

      Needed both power and curve.

      He has Trossard, who is a wizard in the penalty box, making a run, a simple little pass into him. He can pass to Saka early. He can still try the tight pass, put a little pace on it, it’s doable. Really, he should be looking to get the ball to almost anybody else, especially Trossard and Saka who can both dribble, shoot, and pass, and get himself into position to receive a pass or knock in a rebound.

        Lets agree to disagree.

        I had another look at this vid and another angle.

        Leo’s run there is more of a space maker imho. I would preffer the #9 take a shot rather than move the ball out wide.

        Despite the commentry there was no square pass.

        I think eddie needed a better strike on the ball

      Yeah on second watch that’s a really hard pass to make. Could easily get cut out

      The issue is how bad the shot was……

    It’s not a terrible decision but was just an absolute horror shot. No way you’re choosing bottom corner with the keeper positioned like that. Lift it at least

    You just know, as soon as the ball lands on his feet, all he has in mind is “shoot”

    Tunnel vision, selfish, lack of teamwork

    That’s Eddie

    Granted he’s a striker and sure he has every right to try and score

    But that selfishness is what separates him from a decent striker to a good striker

    Eddie would be the equivalent of Haaland in the EFL Championship. 😬 Not good enough for PL.

    Not even a good attempt. If you’re going for the selfish move, at least try to score. He shot weak and to the center. Try to lob it to the corner or something.

    Eddie ain’t elite even though he thinks he is. He ain’t a player that’s gonna lead us to the title like Haaland of City would and can do. We really need to get an out and out striker that bangs in goals for fun.
