    He nearly scored or assisted the winner when he want to get the ball to his team mate for a tap on but the keeper somehow get a hand on it and Mitoma hits the post with it. Dangerous scene.

    Yeah, he should have a hattrick and an assist to be honest. Not that he missed but he was wide open twice and didn't get the pass. Really strange game as they gifted City a lot of chances but City blew the chances as well.

    Mitoma scored today but sadly after a big celebration party the VAR ruled it offside + Brighton concede in the dying seconds like usual ^^.

    I don't know either but Mitoma can be disappointing. On his day he is brilliant but he really lacks consistency and form.

    Do you think it's a little out of his injurys the last time ? And he needs a little longer to be consistent again ? Cause the last seasons he was often more consistent.

    Yeah but to be fair he is good enough but youre right. Think also ne needs a fresh team to get new impulses.

    I would say he is mostly constant. Last season was his best season ever with 10 goals + 4 assists in the league. He was outstanding and the seasons before also. He could do a little better in terms of scorerpoints but apart from that he is top. This season you're right it's different there he is one game good another average.

    But overall his strength is, that he is the most games dangerous. But his injuries makes it not better if course + I really think he needs a new team but a good team which really wants and need him + trust him.

    By the way he was injured today, hope it's not serious.

    Some players are injury prone and Mitoma seems to be one of them. I think if a player is not physical strong enough the damage that they build up over time can come back to bite them with injuries.
