    I mentioned it yesterday how good his pass for the third was but having watched it back quite a bit it's seriously one of the best passes I've ever seen , there is very few players who could make that type of pass . He cuts it back with the top/outside of his right foot whilst on the move with 2 huns touch tight. Footballing IQ is off the chart.

    He is on fire at the moment, going from strength to strength.

    He came in for the game against them in January and never looked out of place and since then grew into a first team starter and yesterday’s performance shows just how good he is becoming.

    That assist for Jota was De Bruyne-esque

    Riley McGee not signing is one of the best things that has happened.

    Although Abada deservedly won MOTM yesterday I think the big handsome *'s first half performance was pivotal to our win.

    Twas interesting that he was the person leading most of the pressing the full game. He must have ran some distance by the time he was taken off. He might not be the quickest but he covers some amount of ground

    He was unbelievably good yesterday. Coming into some form now after a slow-ish start by his standards.

    Sky's the limit for him.

    Raises his game when it’s needed, so much ability and covers that midfield area brilliantly.

    I give him all 3. He touched the 3rd on for Abada.

    Started the season slowly for me, but what a performance yesterday.

    Was my MOTM.

    Think officially he got two, he didn’t get the first one because it deflected from his cross.


    Giakoumakis also should have scored from an O’Riley cross.
