Bshduduejehddg get in!!!

Been told by a man utd supporter we're losing this 3-0 tomorrow, whatever helps him sleep better tonight I suppose.

That was an horrific match, neither club should be charging supporters to watch that.

I swear if we get purple patch Miggy back we're gonna be flying, great goal

A lot of salt in that thread it wasn't even a dig at them and they take it so personally.

He didn't give a great perception at Everton, was known for diving and really wound me up as an opposition player. I hold my hands up though, although he didn't start well, he held his hands up and worked hard to get to where Howe envisioned him and he's probably surpassed expectation. He's had a great season so far, ran tirelessly, harried and harassed defenses to win the ball back and ran his socks off to get us forward. As I said in another thread he turned the game with his tenacity to win the ball back right across the pitch and fired not only the crowd up but the players too. Typified the change in approach to the game 2nf half today. I wasn't impressed when we got him, wouldn't let him go for anything at the moment. Brilliant attitude on the lad, deserves the plaudits he's getting for the work he's put in, long may it continue.

Back to his bully best and had the measure of that midfield 2nd half. Absolutely unplayable on his day. Hope he stays fit now he's back to this level.

Most importantly it can't be understated how the last week has turned out for us, the confidence of an 8-0 victory followed by beating one of the best teams in the world, even with the changes. Our players will feel they can beat anyone right now.

Ti's a thing of beauty!

Gordon is turning into some player like, almost single handedly turned our performance round, the mood changed when he sprinted the width of the field to make sure he stopped City in their tracks, then continued to run the entire game. Livramento had a beast of a game, had Grealish in his back pocket, struggled a little against the fresh legs of Doku, but still didn't let much get past him. What a 2nd half masterstroke that was, not only did we halt City in their tracks but we deserved it, it wasn't a smash and grab, we were good for it. Who'd have thought a backline of Dummett and Lascelles would be a brick wall?? Absolutely buzzing at that.

Targett with the Dummett slide

Love a Dummett power slide

Played Miggy

Tino has been absolutely solid, more than a worthy deputy to Tripps

Commentators positively downtrodden by this on ESPN, hardly said a word for the past 10 minutes

Proper fired up here

Gettttt innnnnn!!!!!

Great tracking by Gordon, the guy is a dynamo! We look much better so far and putting City under pressure. Need to make this count though before Pep plays his trump cards.

We've got the higher xG

You'd think City were winning 6-0 the way ESPN are going on, truth is they've been all fart, dull as dishwater.

Had to score there Murphy

Northern rail coming in clutch!

Tbf I expected them to keep it tight and try and go over the top of us but they came out windmilling and promptly tasted the floor.

I feel attacked

Go on Bruno lad!!
