Tonalis class shines again you mean. 

 

Nar, Howe has played a blinder with him, he could have burned him out by now by playing him every minute, but he's used him perfectly 

[andycap]

The games he started though majority he was dragged off first every match even if Joe or Bruno where having stinkers. 

[Lush Vlad]

That engine. The commentator was saying how we looked leggy around 92 minutes. During which time Tonali had just sprinted back 30 yards or so. Then hounded the Brentford player all the way to the touchline until he pressured him into losing the ball. 
 

Leggy  

[Conjo]

Masterstroke by Howe to ease Tonali into the team after his suspension. Fucking godlike today.

[The Butcher]

Masterstroke? We're 12th.

 

He should've played much more than he has.

[Steve Charlton]

Part of the Caporegime now thats for sure

 

Bruno Captain

Joelinton Enforcer

Time for your bed I think 

[LionOfGosforth]

Could argue if Eddie had eased him in slightly slower, he'd have played a bit better at Chelsea in October, lessons to be learned

or it's, more sensibly, TBD. We'll see where we're at with 58% of the season left.

[Big Geordie]

Top class, bonny lad

[SUPERTOON]

Just try enjoy him playing well, every thread doesn’t need to be an argument.

quelle surprise considering how much ground he covers over the game. He's more match fit than he was, and also generally has played most minutes for Italy.

[Shays Given Tim Flowers]

Both of those goals show how class he is.

As far as I know Tonali was an Italian international earlier in the season aswell. He has been playing like today for them for a while now. It's not like Hall, who was a 19 year old talent.

 

 

 

Well there you go, you've answered it yourself. 

[Holloway]

He's a fucking roller, but carry on bickering if you must 

[AyeDubbleYoo]

Another one who was never going to be a bad signing in a million years.

Post gambling ban obviously

[KaKa]

Making a big difference, and thank God he is, because we really needed it!

 

Hopefully everyone stays fit. We could end up going on a mad run second half of the season.

Very easy to see through this like. You and everyone else knows what the points difference between places is.

[Kid Icarus]

Anyway, it's coming.

 

You can see he still has much more to offer. He'll put in 10x the performance that he did tonight and not score.

[PauloGeordio]

So pleased for him. Off to be now lads to contemplate Toonali! 

[B-more Mag]

Ease in? Nah. Ease back.

I think part of this is the James Bunce influence. Basically, the guy hasn't played regularly for a year so manage his minutes.

True, but I dont think we have dealt with Tonali perfect. Anyway doesnt matter hes back with a bang.

[Myleftboot]

MOTM nearly every game he’s played in that position  Adding goals to his game as well.
