Love to see his Opto stats from last night….he was everywhere!

Re: Magnifico Mafico

There are some available here, but they are less visually appealing than the Analyst website (which doesn't seem to have anything for the League Cup):

You can also find a decent amount of match stats on the FotMob app for players. I've summarised them here:

D. Mafico
Assists: 1
Passes (Accurate): 41 (36 / 87.8%)
Forward zone passes: 15
Long passes (Accurate): 4 (4 / 100%)
Dribbles (successful): 2 (1 / 50%)
Shots on Goal: 0
xG: 0.000
Tackles (Successful): 2 (2 / 100%)
Interceptions: 1
Dispossessed: 2
Fouls Won: 2
Touches: 54 (5th highest on the pitch)

Thanks for that. I thought he was very good and was pleased to see him get a chance to play in his best position.

How many academy players is that now, 9?

Purse, Chesterfield, and the rest deserve a pat on the back!

Re: Magnifico Mafico

I make it 12: Turner, Bagan, Kapakio, Lawler, Giles, R. Colwill, J. Colwill, King, Mafico, Nyakuwah, Davies, and Ashford have all featured this season already!

We could put out a pretty decent 11 and have room for a sub!

Re: Magnifico Mafico

Turner didn’t come through City’s academy.

Re: Magnifico Mafico

Yeah, I got a bit carried away there. Under 21s only. We'll have to play goalie rush or wait for Daniel Higgs to get on the team sheet properly.

Re: Magnifico Mafico

His stature and the way he moves reminded me of Cohen Griffith, totally different type of player though.
