Everything seems to be against one Man City player.

There were plenty of positives for Man City to take from their 2-nil win over Brentford in the Carabao Cup tie at the Etihad Stadium last night. Perhaps the biggest one was the performance of Man City’s squad players. Nearly all of City’s fringe players did exactly what they had to do to remind Pep Guardiola that they can contribute across this season. But for Oscar Bobb his night ended early. The young winger suffered a hamstring injury and had to be taken off after 19 minutes. Last night’s match was the ideal time for Bobb to remind everyone of his quality. Instead he hobbled off injured and it seems that everything is against Bobb right now.

Oscar Bobb seems poised to be missing for some time for Man City.
