The Mac Allister transformation’s so notable and funny. You can take the Argentinian out of Argentina, but not the ….. .
18 months ago a young, slight, skilled player, un-Simeone like.
Now that rare combination (Case, Souness) of being a skilful midfielder who’s also a battler with the dark arts.
Impressed by Moder’s pace throughout, too.
In a couple of games awhile back eg Villa away, I was surprised how slow he was in recovery when they attacked. Turns out that wasn’t Moder at his best.
It’s you.
CP targeted him as the danger man, with a couple of players on his case throughout, freeing up space for us elsewhere.
They couldn’t keep it up. In that last 20 minutes, he was a key part of keeping the passing game going, looking for that opening. Great ball retention.
A great...
If only you could’ve been Star Trek transported into the stadium for the game.
Everyone from what I could see and hear was so positive throughout, mass singing of the Maupay chant as we exited the NS.
A night to remember.
Not tonight.
Watching in the stadium, we were quality.
Gross’s shocker prevented a likely win.
Frightened CP packed out their back, bamboozled by our passing game.
Patience, everything Albion is simmering away rather nicely.
Good performance so far.
They seem to be crowding Trossard out of the game, leaving room for others.
Cucurella had a great 45.
One adjustment - we need to shore up our right. They’re countering with 3 pacey players against Veltman and the incredibly slow Gross.
