Doing a lot of chasing, hope we don't tire.

Played Vlaar. 

Just a bit of composure required here.  Different challenge.

Bacuna's role is clearly to help Lowton with Enrique and Coutinho on the right, then help with breaks when he can.

I am hoping it is nerves. Had to give up my tickets for this one, and even at home I am nervous, so guess they are big time. We just seem a bit frantic with the ball.

Good chasing, but they do also need to pass and keep possession as well, partly to save energy. Possession 70/ 30 after 12 mins.

I know it's early days and all that, and I'm not saying he's a world beater or anything, but Luna is a clear improvement on Bennett, I think.

A wardrobe on wheels would be an improvement on Bennett...

Very very frantic Bacuna. Vlaar needs to just get them all to calm a little.

I'm not seeing anyone out there who can really put their foot on the ball and dictate the pace...

I partly agree. He's given possession away 3 times though.

They have come to quieten us and get a hold on the game early.
