When he brought Ashley on specifically to nullify a threat, it made me  realise that this bloke is good. We've lacked that type of in game management and subs that achieve a specific shape change for years.

OK people stop this fawning over Unai's first week. He did well against  manu at home and today. Got it badly wrong on Thursday. Let's see how things are towards end of Feb.
