Had an outstanding game but I ended up hoping playing the full game doesn't mean he's lethargic on Saturday. I just can't see Eddie taking the risk to rest him even if Joelinton and Tonali will be back.

Deserved a penalty, as well.

Agreed all pen calls were soft but in a world where staying in your feet is punished I dont blame them. 

 

The ref was awful for both sides last night but the bar they set for most of the fouls on the pitch didn't allign with what was allowed in the box.

Don’t think it was soft at all. He megs the defender and the defender pulls him back. It’s a very clear foul.

Its soft when you watch it back in terms of Bruno going to ground a little too easy commentators were going on about a lack of leg contact which is a load of shite as its ignoring the arm holding. 

 

I would say its a pen but I am bias.

Meh. It’s a foul, the rest doesn’t matter.

Would need to see it again if Bruno was also doing some holding the ref may have felt it was proportional blame for Bruno going down. 

 

Like I say the ref was awful they just needed to fall over in a duel to get the ref to call a foul. Only thing I was pleased with it didn't result in a load of bookings for us. 

 

Also secretly pleased we won with open play goals not just a pen/s if that makes sense.

His forward play is incredibly underrated and honestly probably a bit underused.

 

to emphasise this, this season so far he's hardly getting the ball (which is normal for the 8s in our system)

but his creative output and progression is very good still:

most through balls per 90 from midfielders in the league also.

We have to work out ways to get him on the ball in the middle third more I think. Nobody else can play the pass that he made for Murphy's cross on the first goal the other night.

He seems to be back to his best lately. I have been quite critical of many of his performances over the past year, but lately he has been great. Not losing the ball cheaply, his passing usually on point, and his shooting has also been better
