Kane for me because of the goals, but I thought Kulu really put in a shift and was our best attacking threat. Sanchez and Emerson defended well but were shaky on the ball.
Kulusevski without a doubt, the only one who looked like last season going forward. Kane, not on top of his game but still two goals, bloody enigma. Son needs a little break, Richie did more in his little cameo than Son all game.
Well, this is the system. Soak up pressure, no real chances for rhe opposition, catch on the break or find space to attack. It's completely different to the high intensity of the press or ticky tacka. Would like to see the passing more refined, as can still be sloppy and wasteful. But overall, I thought forest huffed and puffed, fouled across the pitch (was it 6 yellows?) And I thought, despite richi taking the absolute piss, it was a red for the follow up tackle but offered no real threat.
Sanchez was great today. Some criticism in the thread for his poor clearances, but I thought he was very commanding.
Son was better but will be looking over his shoulder now, at richi. Rightly so.
For me it’s Højbjerg and not really that close, but I can see how varied the opinions will be and rightly so. Deki assist and best forward. Kane 2 goals. Sanchez solid. Bentancur everywhere. Perišić classy. Richy a difference maker again.
