RB Leipzig CL (A) | Man of the Match

[cleavers]

Don't get why he didn't start the last game.

Because he was playing tonight, Pep had him down for that role tonight, and has kep him fresh for it, we saw why.

 

[Blue Pete]

I understand why Rico will win (and he was good), but for me watching Foden play is a joy and the best thing since David Silva left. (Watching Spanish Dave was to see the beauty in football)

Phil was great too, easily one of the best, but voting for Rico isn't knocking Phil.

Alvarez, but Rico now has a big chance of proper making it , little one and goes once he gets that needs to be a little bit sharper/crispy with his passing , cause his sense of the game and positioning for a kid is a pisstake

 

[Vienna_70]

Rico was brilliant but it's Phil for me.
I was surprised he was taken off as he was running the game.
He took his goal really well and everything was going through him especially in the second half.

I think Phil was taken off with an eye on Sunday.

Pep has a very high opinion of Rico, as he showed tonight, but he won't burn him out.

He's definitely a "keeper".

We was referring to Gvardiol LOL. Although I agree Rico is definitely a top draw first team player too. CTID

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Rico and was his best game for us

But Gvardiol and Phil were also top of their game

And to have Julian come off the bench and perform the way he did is fanfuckintastic

 

[Eccles Blue]

You know Pep should sometimes get a chance at MOTM! I bet he runs down and kicks every pass on that pitch in his head and his body! You watch his body language sometimes and he’s exhausted at the end of the game! JMHO :-)

 

[SWPISHOME]

I actually cant believe that Rico Lewis doesn't have 100% of the vote.

He's an absolute gem of a footballer.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Rico all day.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Lewis for me.

Mature performance, way above his years.

 

[eastmanc]

I voted for Rico but I thought that Foden was excellent too.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Rico, left the pitch a man.

To be his age and be head & shoulders the best player on the pitch is fantastic for him, ok maybe not head & shoulders but certainly the main man last night.

 

[Millo]

I went for Lewis, but Alvarez was superb in his short time on the pitch.

 

[trevorriley]

gave it lewis, he never stopped, brilliant show. Perfect game for him as Leizig are not very strong, pretty crap to be honest and wouldnt make the top half of the prem.

thought bernardo was good first half, shows what we miss, better with rodri in.

alvarez and doku, cam on as game changers

 

[city68]

Riccoooooooo

 

[Centurions]

Rico Lewis for me or as the wife refers to him, the excitable puppy :)

 

[noblelord]

Just finished watching the match and it's Rico for me. Thought Phil was good and Alvarez was excellent.
