Former Manchester City and England international forward Rodney Marsh has suggested on Twitter that Benjamin Mendy will not play for Manchester City again
The made the comment during City’s 2-1 defeat to Chelsea away from home at Stamford Bridge in London in the Premier League on Thursday evening after a calamitous mistake by Mendy.
As Chelsea cleared the ball the Frenchman went to gather it but then he played a wayward pass which was intercepted by Christian Pulisic, who broke with pace
Mendy attempted to chase the American down but he was left in the dust as Pulisic slotted past Ederson.
Benjamin Mendy simply had an outing to forget. His crossing was hit and miss, too, rendering him a liability on the day. He was subbed off for Oleksandr Zinchenko before the hour mark.
Rodney Marsh as well as some City Fans reacted to the 25-year-old’s mistake and the huge impact it could have on Manchester City’s season.
>Think Mendy may have played his last game for Manchester City😱— Rodney Marsh (@RodneyMarsh10) June 25, 2020
on the goal he made 4 separate errors in a few seconds. Continued to run to the ball, then played it, then attempted tackle when should have just held up/forced inside then challenged lamely with wrong foot. 90k/wk lovely.— Phoenix Prince (@Phoenixprince9) June 25, 2020
Such a disappointment after a good start to his CITY career pre-injury.— DC (@DanCurran77) June 26, 2020
Agreed – poor decision making when it really matters— Steve Cox (@stevecox68) June 25, 2020
Oh Rodney Rodney… he’ll start against Newcastle, in the Cup, on Sunday & then play the majority of games through to the Champions League final in Lisbon. Where he’ll lead the post match celebrations, after running Bayern ragged…

Manchester City now have little to play for in the Premier League now and must shift their focus to the cup competitions.
- Manchester City think £50m bid will be enough to sign player who Manchester United cannot afford this summer
- Man City’s biggest game-changer vs Everton was actually £55m player, not Nico O’Reilly or Mateo Kovacic
- Man City are willing to £50 million to sign Diogo Costa.
- In the end Man City did what they had to do at Goodison Park.
- Man City fans react as Kevin De Bruyne now admits he was shocked about suddenly not getting a new contract
- Two post-game quotes indicate that Man City have turned a corner.
- What Phil Foden did after going up to Nico O’Reilly right after Man City’s 2-0 win vs Everton
- Man City had to make a tough call on De Bruyne’s future.
- Man City player who has been ‘much maligned’ now branded ‘outstanding’ in 2-0 win over Everton
- One Man City defender was outstanding against Everton.
