Who was your man of the match vs Brentford?
Good honest review and despite all the changes I thought they did well. Credit where it's due thought Kostas and endo were better
Away from the game what do you know about Lucas beraldo
Nunez in the first half was worth the ticket price for me… cheers
VVD was definately MOTM alongside Salah
Szoboszlai 70 million 🤣
This was the best performance this season. Viva Van Dyke!!!
Really important win looking ahead to our next game. Would hope Gravenberch is back fit for that game. Nunez was decent again today. Salah is so important to us. Will be a huge miss if he leaves in the summer
With players to come back we have got to go for it like chelsea showed against city so come onnnnnnn reds 💯💯💯😎😎😎😁😁😁
quality content as always keep up the great work
Totally agree with your analysis 👍
Nunez… mom for me. Although, VVD could snatch it away?
Cheers 🍻😀
I think Endo had a better than Kostas. Kostas made some errors that could have lead to goals.
It's insane you can disregard how good Endo was today. Better than Macallister ever has been. We would have never been so secure with MacAllister in that position. Why? Because we have seen it. Let's allow MacAllister play higher up with Endo behind hm like today
Our growing injury list worries me, it's full tilt after this international break
The spine of the team got us 3 points today.
The Egyptian King
VVD
Alison
Chelsea has softened up City, just in time for our visit to the Etihad. We stand a realistic chance to take away something. If Nunez gets a bit of luck, we’ll get all 3 points, he’s the one player that seems to create or have the most chances in most games. 💪🙏👏✊
Better from the red's
The defence was all over the place though and they had loads of chances on the counter (saved by Allison) or would you say that's the fault of the midfield not pressing enough?
Agree Van Dyke was at his best. I was sitting level with the back line in the first half and he did not put a foot or head wrong. Also appreciated how vocal he is… a true captain.
For me the MOTM was between Mo, Virgil and possibly Darwin. Darwin becuase he was pretty much EVERYWHERE. One of the best matches I've seen him play to date.
Virgil was outstanding. We do miss Andy Robbo though. We won without getting out of 3rd gear.
We need to win against City otherwise this result means nothing YNWA
I wouldnt go for Gomez against City last season Foden beat him every go with the Greek Scouser
Gonna go Salah motm just over Van D. I'm pitch side Kenny D stand towards Annie road and Mo's confidence was back today, taking in left backs etc. I believe Endo gave more balance today, compared to when Macca is in the 6 role.
VVD was man of the match. Ali Mo and Endo also good. The whole team were good actually. Did Ali have a go at the crowd?
