Agreed completely , we are the kind of club where everyone wants to win and win right now!!, that is demanded of the team, patience shamcience, absolutely need some proven players too, all those young players that get on the pitch and don’t perform at the highest level “immediately” will be slaughtered ( Marco?) that could probably affect them and their career arc for the rest of their lives, and if they don’t get on the pitch, sitting around on the bench could have the same effect, delicate balancing trick is needed, and, most of all a “good coach” to make it all work
One thing that is apparent from highlights and today is that he looks like he's very weak on the ball, needs to work on some lower body strength. You see a lot of nifty touches that end in him being pushed off the ball.
To be honest that's a pretty good eye by @Zidane05 When I've notice him play he tends to be always falling or stumbling. As I said earlier he can have a heavy first touch and pass (mainly passing).
First ever start. Not bad. Not bad at all. pic.twitter.com/FRx64wJfDQ— M•A•J (@Ultra_Suristic) March 31, 2019 Brahim: "We had a good game & personally I'm very content.

Decent game from him yesterday, he looked a bit nervous at times but you could tell the kid has bags of potential. A loan to a team like Betis next season could do wonders for him and us.
1120013427613716480 is not a valid tweet id 1120101906292961281 is not a valid tweet id Zidane on Brahim: "He's a good player. I knew about him before and what I like about Brahim is that when he picks the ball up, h heads for goal. He likes to get on the ball and link up with other. It's a shame that he didn't score the chance he had, I would have like to see him score. It's a shame because he was only out there for 10 or 12 minutes".
One thing I love about this kid is his true two footed-ness....I still don’t know what his strongest foot is.
You can clearly see the kid comes from a Pep team. Always in movement, one touch the ball and he is gone. That first pass on Modric was good as well, 'normal' players would have made the easy pass to Marcelo there. IMO he has huge potential. He and Odegaard would be perfect back-ups for Hazard/VJR. Sell Lucas and Asensio.
Apparently the transfer has bonuses that could see it cost 25 mil. and if we sell the player, Manchester City get 15% of whatever we get, and 40% of whatever we get if we sell him to Manchester United.
I don't agree with the Odegaard part, but I wouldn't mind Brahimi staying, however it would have to be at the cost of another player like Asensio. I could see a trident of Hazard, Benzema and Vinicius being damn good. Then with Brahimi, Jovic and Brahimi backing them up.
This kid oozes class , he deserves a midtable team(or even towards top) where he'll be a starter for a whole year to develop. Getafe,Valencia & Sevilla are fighting for that final UCL spot and there's also Bilbao & Alaves as possible destinations. For example Susaeta had a dreadful season ,being by far their worst player and he players on the right behind the striker in a 4-2-3-1. Not to mention that most of these Spanish teams unfortunately sell away their players.
I don't see what people see in him. A couple of fancy moves here and there, but nothing that separates him from the field. To top it off, he's very weak on the ball. Not enough end product to me, and can definitely benefit from a full season starting somewhere.
Summed well. Whenever I’ve watched him play for City, he has some clever movement on and off the ball. Jinks around here and there, but I can see why City weren’t massively bothered about offering him a significant contract or role.
