How did that stand?

Safe to say City won't come to play us on Wednsday feeling too tired.

These Saudi league games are mad, 4-3 with the trailing side having a full go at it. Ronaldo's boys won at the end .

I still get really upset when i think about that Liverpool game, this week i heard that Klopp said something in the lines of it being the most sanctifying win of his career and it just amplified the feeling, I remember not too far back with Ashley and Bruce in charge i had no problem skipping a game in favor of doing something else and would quickly move on after a shit performance. Now i would cancel any plan/meeting if it conflicts with one of our games. And also, with the takeover and the success that came with it also brought back some really fond memories, i went to sleep on Tuesday feeling so happy that i got to witness our boys in the Champions League again, something about it reminded me of 13 year old me staying up and watching Shearer and the boys in our last champions league campaign, Bellamy's goal against Feynoord was the goal i celebrated the most in my life and at some point during Ashley i thought i'll never get to re-live those days. i think with getting older and having kids and other priorities you try not to invest too much emotional energy in football but i must admit it got a lot harder after the takeover.

Aside from his debut hatrick Firmino has been terrible in the Saudi League

On paper the most exciting game happening today

Its bad for us overseas too, least ideal time to watch a game for me.

Had that one went in!! he had his shaky moments but also worked very hard and almost won us the game stopping that attacking then getting a chance of his own, again our midfield looks better with him in it.

Well done to him today and a deserved clean sheet.

From Bristol Rovers to San Siro Looked very good when he came on.

Terrible game from him today, was bullied by their defenders and hardly did anything on the left, i understand the decision to put him on the left but after 75th minute he looked totally knackered and should've been taken off. He'll have better games for sure.

His Experience showed today, superb performance.

It was his first start of the season and it was against AC Milan in San Siro, i think starting him ahead of Miggy was the right idea and hopefully he'll only get better from here.

He's a really weird one, you don't want him to be playing but you also don't want to be playing without him

Obviously will take him time but i'm not sure we know where his best position is in that team, even Anderson and Longstaff seem to have a more clear role.

We were lucky to get a point but i thought his changes and even initial line-up was actually good today, only thing i would say is that Isak looked fucked from about the 75th minute and we could've paid a price for not bringing Barnes on earlier.

Very happy with that to be honest, we were fighting relegation not so long ago and now we've gone and taken a point at San Siro with most of the players from that team.

Its crazy that this is actually happening, hope he keeps Gordan on the right though as i can't stand the thought of Almiron playing against Theo Hernandez.

Scored his first goal for them and it proved to be the winner on the night.

Back to his best today.

I don't really know how he does it but we are so much more balanced with him in midfield.

A Monster today, still useless going forward but nothing got past him at the back.

What a character he is, always out to prove people wrong when he's doubted and was a nightmare to play against today.

Far better option than Miggy on the right and did very well to win that penalty.

He did very well, he was unlucky to not start the season having been our best player in pre-season and very pleased by his performance today. i am 50/50 of wither we should start him in Milan but next week he should be starting in the league for sure.
