Thought Foden was excellent. Great time to be running back into form.

Nice touch to take Ake off when the points were won, Bournemouth fans gave him a well deserved ovation

Most of you are being blinded by the result imho.

I thought the performance was ok, nothing more.

However, we took our chances and that changes games and results.

Bournemouth we’re comically shit and will go down.

Thought Lewis had yet another really good game and his drifting into midfield suits Gundogan and gives him more licence to play higher up.

3 much needed points and really pleased to get back to winning ways.

First half intent was good. 2 goals from balls over the top, the kind people were calling for, so for me, if that continues is a real positive. 2nd half we switched off which is not a great look but perfectly understandable. It's the intent that I liked the most.

Loved the intensity today. Foden, Lewis, Alvarez and Ake especially. Gundogan was much more positive too. There were more passes splitting the defensive lines, played with pace. A few balls over the top to Haaland, they didn't really work out but the threat puts the shits up the opposition and quite often we end up winning the ball back in a much more threatening area against a disorganised defence. Then numbers in the box to pick up loose balls.

Happy with that performance. Seen us knock the ball about better but it’s being clinical that wins games comfortably.

Lost our way a bit after 5 subs but that happens, and the game was over anyway, so no complaints.

I like Alvarez starting with Haaland. You can still see flashes of rawness in his all round game but not really in a bad way, it gives us more energy.

Check this out.

Didn't take long to prove the Ederson Penalty was not the new normal corrupt fuckers.

Unreal how overt corruption is.

Thought Foden was excellent. Great time to be running back into form.

Yeah he played well, much more direct than Mahrez at times which showed today. Just needs to work on getting caught by the ball inside him when defending.

Do people think that Pep bringing on all the reserves for this game makes it more likely they’ll play Bristol City in the week, or more likely Pep will play the rested first team?

There is only one way to argue the toss about this…..a pre match Bristol City thread :-)

Comfortable win, didn’t stretch ourselves too much. Some nice football, plenty of attacks. Shame about conceding, but a 3 goal win. Penalty on Mahrez at the end. Bizarre decision to call it outside the box.
