Speed and directness really paying off.

It’s a lovely sight but we have been here before…

Today better not be another one of those days.

Yes, not getting too carried away, let's see if this energy and concentration is there in the second half.

Gonzales as everyone's eyes and ears when it's in the first two thirds is so important.

I am so so happy.

We look so much better with him in there, looking forward to seeing him next to Rodri

 

[Gibblue]

Nico holds his position so well. Very promising signs

Couple more and we’ll be fine ;)

This is what Haaland has been needing all season, a second real goal scoring threat. Our wingers in the last 2 seasons haven't been productive enough and it's meant Haaland gets targeted every game.

Now if the defense focuses on Haaland we have Marmoush and vice versa.

And if Phil is firing again that make it even better.

Precisely.
Also good to have Foden in a more central role. Ideal second striker and playmaker rolled in one.
Nico and Rodri together might just be something to look forward to.

So much control. So much happiness.

Nico even telling Gundo where to go. Can see why Pep wanted him.

 

[p.taker]

Lol Eddie what are you doing

 

[Ezy]

Levels above Doku

Agree

 

[Beanhead]

Maybe, just maybe he can do this in this against those twats on Wednesday.

 

[DavidWhitesUnderpants]

Decided to go out shopping to get it out the way and we grab three goals. Thank me later or now if you like. i'll tell you when I go to the loo so you can bet on the fourth.

Yes we actually have players behind the ball when they break

 

[Blue Abroad]

Nico is what facilitates this. Amazing what a decent holding midfielder can do

Especially when it allows Ilkay to play in his best role.

 

[wolviedinho]

All i want to know is have we turned the corner rag style yet?

 

[jamielowndes]

I'm sure the players prefer this quicker, expansive style of playing rather than the ultra safe, ball in the fridge way of playing.

They became something of a self parody late last year. Just passive to a fault. Looking really energised today.

 

[roman totale]

Just got in from a 5K.
Are we back?

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Nico btw showing leadership in the midfield. Telling everyone where to go

Steve Mcmanaman likes this post!

 

[Zenmanc]

Its cliche and it's a reach but Nico moves Rodriesque

 

[super_city_si]

Halls a good player but savio is giving him a torrid time
