Sanchez is such an anomaly.

Sanchez is such a powerful looking individual - You would think that he thrives when game gets physical. But more physical the opponent gets and roughs up Sanchez, more bad he becomes. He was pushed to the edge by Traore. But unlike last season, good thing is, he got though the game unscathed.

Against likes of Lukaku , Toney he will have his task cut out
I don't think he's strong at all. Look thin and gets knocked off the ball a lot

it's super funny, my biggest gripe has been his heading and bravery, today he was hurling himself to block shots and win balls in the air. I have no idea what Nuno has done or if bringing in Romero really made him buckle down but he has looked great. My only concern is how we will react when we actually give up a goal. We haven't yet and eventually will, I hope we can remain brave while defending instead of sulking and completely falling apart like in the past

Did the 1st 15 mins chicken with head cut off routine, but was stellar after that.

His passing range has improved 100%. Skipp And Hojberg being available receive from him takes out the scary moments he gets pressed. His diagonals have been superb, Toby must have taught him on his way out ?

Did Sanchez find a pair of magic boots in Toby's locker or something? Totally different player this season. Still a little questionable under a high ball but everything else has been brilliant.

Faultless. I have no clue where this passing came from either. But the best player on the park and everything is there for him to be an elite defender.

Spot on where did those come from. There were games last season I seriously questioned if he could kick a ball properly. Some great raking balls and MOTM for me.
