Cup Final Winners man of the match

[smudgedj]

Hard one this. I voted for Jesus in the end.

15 minutes after KdB came on yesterday, I said to my lad, "this is a man of the match performance", at the end of it, when it was announced he was, I was not in the least surprised.

I put the vote up last night, and usually vote right away, but I decided to sleep on it before voting.

We were struggling a bit when he came on, and he grabbed us the ball, and we never looked back. Others deserve plaudits too, Ederson for the early save, and the header clear, Vinny for being, well Vinny, Zinchenko gave us a great attacking threat after a shaky start, Jesus and Bernardo for their incredible work rate.

I didn't change my mind.

Hard to look beyond Kev, but it was just 35 mins.
The whole team were excellent.
I give it to Jesus who was perfect. A real team player.

KDB was just class when he came on, 35 mins of genius. Hope he can stay fit and plays a full season next year if so we will be so strong in midfield. Thought Bernardo gave his usual 8 out of 10 minimum performance and Sterling had a great 2nd half..

Mahrez MOTM for me.

What match are you talking about?

yes yes yes another person who sees what Jesus really is, twice the player Mahrez dreams of being, If we can keep Jesus, only 22 years old, brazil international, he will be Aguero's replacement as sergio winds down and will be blue star for a long time.

Bernardo.
His movement and pure genius on the ball are phenomenal to watch.
POTS never mind MoTM.

bernardo is player of the season
motm today was jesus
kev was unreal for 35 minutes
loads of others very good, bernie, vinny, gundy, zinny, davey,Laporte.
Raz as well though a tad selfish for me, and not talking about the goal line thing.
mahrez looked ok, but as stated elsewhere on forum, not a lot of end product, i agree.
walker needs to touch the ball less in our attacks.

 

[york away to this!]

I went for Raheem. Just to score three (or four..) in an FACup final caps off a wonderful season.

They were all magnificent.

 

[mikemcfc]

6-0 in a cup final after such a demanding season.

This team is fucking ridiculous.

Mahrez MOTM for me. Getting his mojo and confidence back. Bodes very well for next season.

i don't root against mahrez, i wish him the best, he is part of our family,
but in the motm poll above mahrez is 8th place, the majority know.
i had him 9th as zinchenko had a better game as well imo.
decent football for portions of a couple games after the start he's had, and especially for what we paid for him,
it's easy to say that this gravitation to a mahrez circle jerk
is a premature proclamation...

Hard as Debruyne came on and showed that the league missed its best player all season. Bernie is always good, Raz too and Mahrez was good first half and showing glimpses of his old self as his confidence returns but Jesus... was bloody amazing, worked his socks off battled with great hold up play, interplay and finishing. Perfect strikers performance and was made up for him as Aguero’s relentless form has limited his opportunities this season. That said 21 goals is a remarkable return considering.

Also is it me or since he joined us It seems that more often than not when we totally destroy a team by a monstrous scoreline he’s playing and very involved.
