Howe was saying a few weeks back he's been working on his strength in the gym, and he was blown away by it.

Also, playing Gordon upfront a bit to try and get him a goal and some confidence in his finishing, might not be the worst idea!

A lot of these subs are probably now taking into account fatigue and workload data from Bunce to be fair.

Think Osula will still come on for Gordon too.

Very very impressive showing so far at Brentford who have been a headache at home. Wow.

Isak hatty!!!

Would have struggled the way we were going early this season. Think Southampton are worse and should have beaten us first game of the season at home!

Bruno goal scoring box threat now unlocked! Going to go from strength to strength in this position.

That Murphy, Longstaff and Tino right side man Was so dysfunctional. Bruno has made a big difference there. Still think Murphy tries to get involved in the build up phase a tad too much, as it's not his strength. He is so good making forward runs and in the final third will whip it in first time or get a decent shot away. Should look to play on the shoulder of the defence more and let Bruno, Tino and Schar do most of the build up down the right. Still much improved showings from him, so can't complain too much. Fair play to him. Bruno has helped a lot on that side.

Despite still missing some glaring chances, Tonali coming in has given us extra to create much more, and so it's now not as big of an issue. Has also made us better defensively. This was the frustrating thing earlier on this season when we were missing these chances and losing because the midfield wasn't good enough to keep creating more as well as not being good enough defensively to help keep the other team out.

Fantastic mix of both gritty and technical qualities.

Tonali coming in has got us cooking! Creating far more pressure and overwhelming teams now. Murphy proving to be a handy squad player going forward. Just needs to focus on staying high up the pitch and letting those behind him do the build up and progression forward.

Come on boys get a second and let's coast through the rest of the game.

Willock always so inconsistent. Just can't be relied upon to start regularly.

Not in the least bit surprised he didn't come through at Man City under Pep. He doesn't know what to do with this sort of powerful, rumbling, driving midfield ball carrier. He's currently making a mess of Matheus Nunes and even going way back, sent Yaya Toure on his way from Barca, and we saw how he terrorised the Prem in the same sort of manner.

Not sure actually. Maybe.

What a scummy goal. Foden been so anonymous. If he can't get it on the half turn for a shot, he doesn't really seem to do much else.

Unreal football. Rodgers has been exceptional. Lovely final ball from McGinn.

How shit is Cash?! Ridiculously poor decision making just then.

Hopefully.

Rogers has been really good.

Gorgeous initial ball from Tielemans. Great composed and unselfish ball from Rogers. Fantastic goal.

Frankenstein Fraser Forster made far worse errors, and was the bigger mess on the day. And you still lost! He gifted you two direct goals, hence the xg you're so proud of. Terrible stuff.

I'm glad you're happy with those levels man. They were playing Archie Gray at centre back and Frankenstein in goal and you created no chances. Good luck!
