Shocking, just shocking!https://twitter.com/matt_walker96/status/1480140061811294212?s=21
I feel a bit worried for him, and quite sorry for him. There’s no way on earth he’s as bad as he currently looks, and no way he wants to be this bad either. As has been pointed out above, he came through the Manchester City academy, has represented England at youth level and has had a decent goalscoring career in the EFL. Many of us remember him looking impressive against us. Something is clearly wrong at the moment. That horror touch yesterday is something you wouldn’t see on a Sunday morning, he’s clearly not as bad as that made him look or he’d never have been a footballer, rather like most of those they hurl abuse at him. I can see why McSheffrey picked him again as we all know there’s something there, we saw occasional flashes of it earlier in the season and the team is crying out for that now. But it’s not happening for him at all and he looks totally lost and disillusioned. I hope the club are helping him, and I hope he helps himself too. Probably needs time out of the team now and I hope when he comes back he gets encouragement and that he justifies that.
Hiwula's reaction to that awful touch, as frustrating as it was at the time, is quite alarming. I have to say I'm a bit worried about him too. Either it's confidence, effects of covid/injury or he simply has something else going on that we aren't privy to.He has had a good career up to this point, I thought it was a proper signing when he arrived, but of all the players struggling this season it is Hiwula who just doesn't look like a capable footballer anymore.Along with Cukur maybe but there's doubts over whether he would or has ever looked up to it.
Alternatively he could be on bad form and not putting in the work he should? If he was suffering that badly mentally and it was known to the coaching staff do you think he'd be starting week in week out?

He needs to be sat down and have a good chat and get things off his chest
