Man City Fans Turn on Kyle Walker After Newcastle Draw: "Get Him Out!"
Manchester City’s draw with Newcastle United has sparked fresh calls for Kyle Walker to be dropped from the team. The right-back has faced intense criticism from fans following a string of costly errors, and today’s result only added fuel to the fire.
Walker was at fault for Anthony Gordon’s equalizing penalty, failing to track the Newcastle star as he made a break through on goal. This isn’t the first time Walker has made a crucial mistake, and it seems some City fans have had enough.
On social media, fans were quick to vent their frustrations. One fan wrote, "Kyle Walker once again playing someone onside because he’s ball watching." Another commented, "Walker is Guardiola’s biggest blind spot. Don’t know how he can possibly be entertaining giving him a start after last weekend’s shambles."
Some fans are now calling for Walker to be sold or replaced, citing his repeated errors and lack of defensive awareness. While others are defending Walker, arguing that he’s a vital part of the team and that he’ll come good with some guidance.
The question is, will Pep Guardiola continue to trust Walker with key matches? The manager has started Walker in recent weeks, but perhaps it’s time to consider alternatives.
