I thought he played well without scoring,much more of a team performance from him
Really bizarre reading some comments saying he had a poor game.Can't believe some of the comments here.
He's out of form in front of goal, but he put in one hell of a shift today, and one of the reason Sané and Sterling got so many chances was because he was pulling the spurs defence all over the place and they were running into the gaps left behind.
He came deep, ran between the lines of defence and midfield, bombed down the channels, all he's missing is a bit of form in front of goal and I think we can put that down to the fact he's trying to do something new, a new and unfamiliar role.
I think Pep will be very happy with the him today, and will consider our attack pretty much sorted with Sané, Sterling, Sergio and Jesus.

This is the type of performance we want from him.
He had a shot first half when he ran across to the left and shot low at the near post.I can't remember him having a shot today but I the more I think back to the game the more I remember how hard he was working closing down from the front he looked genuinely knackered towards the end of that game, it didn't go unnoticed from me.
