Bravo
Sagna Otta Kola Clichy
Yaya
Raheem Silva KDB Sane
Jesus/Kun (could be either, would be happy with any)
Subs: Willy (maybe deserves a start), VK (a day to early for him I think), Stones, Ferna (Yaya playin to well to drop), Delph, Nolito, Kun/Jesus.
IF we get a goal in the first 20 minutes can see us playing some lovely football and winning comfortably, need to be well disciplined as they will target set pieces and balls into the box. Think however though we will score early and dominate the midfield. Sane and Raheem to run them ragid and get 2/3 assists between them.
0-4 - Kun, KDB, Jesus & Yaya
I was pretty much perfect bar a couple in the starting line up and one scorer, throught we were excellent all over the park, the movement and pace going forward is frightening, gives arguably the best 2 creative players in the league so much to aim at. Toure again oozed class and the back 5 good when called upon and very composed, subs worked hard.
Sane for me MOTM the kid is electric and so dangerous but has a great work etchic. Closely followed by Jesus. More of the same on Sunday.
On a side note as well thought we were very disciplined, could have been easy to leave a few late ones in or get caught up with a few of their players when they seemed to be getting away with a lot of bookings.
Maffeo is coming back to be our long term right back. It's at left back where we need to sign a worldy.The key to any season is timing your good run. We could quite easily go on a ten game winning run with the youth and pace of our wonderful front three. Chelsea will have a dip but more importantly for me is we are seeing a glimpse into a Pep team. Replace the fullbacks and Yaya even though I'm chuffed he's having an Indian summer and watch us go - Tonight we were excellent and lets hope they feel it too.
We're building up for it, Sunday is the sort of game......Outstanding performance.
Just wish we'd thrash someone 8 nil and not ease off. Sure that day is not too far round the corner.
Spot on.Great performance but it'll be reported at Wet Sham being shit.
Jesus is adaptable and versatile (can play midfield or anywhere in attack) and from what I've seen so far his natural position looks like left side of a front three - a bit like Robinho (who gave us all a massive lift)....... but a better player. Sane also specialises in that left side of a front three position but in a more direct style. We've now got more quality players than positions available. Fantastic problem for Pep. 18 in 24 for Sergio under Pep. Delivers under the ultimate pressure.
Sergio has 18 in 24 for Pep....OMG this Jesus lad is going to be fucking incredible!
Aguero won't get back in the starting line up now!
