Every goal tonight, while not pretty, was so satisfying.
The first he outmuscled a defender and then got in front of him with rapid movement.
The second he got it on the half turn and played a good ball through to Foden then didn’t just stay still, got into a scoring position.
The third - that standing leap. Christ on a bike.
Add to that he has every goal in his locker and we’ve only really seen the ‘in behind’ goal twice. Frightening ceiling really.
Also, every goal has had importance really. Both in a 2-0 win at West Ham. Started a comeback against Newcastle. Completed a comeback against Palace. Started the scoring at 0-0 tonight against Forest.
