Good performance that. Like the pressing, our possession play is improving. Defence looked a bit iffy as usual but we've been unlucky with Evans' injury and of course Maguire is still missing at the minute. We could still use a defensive reinforcement or two...
EDIT - also interesting to see what's going to happen with the RB role. Periera looked useful in a more advanced role today and if Simpson is no longer in the plans then we could surely use a RB.

Look handy going forward and when we are pressing higher up the pitch.
Makes Chilwell look quality when he’s allowed to bomb on.
Quite a few positives really. Nachos form especially important.
Worry about options to change a game. And obviously our defensive frailties. We still have this bad habit of starting games slowly.

He's got some extra time off to recover from piles and pins and needles in his arse from his world cup exploits.

Yes. Stupid bastard should have grown 2 inches taller in the summer break.
It was nothing to do with his height. It was because he jumped in front of where the ball was going.
