If the team was purring like most of the last 2 seasons he would shine. Every player was dump this evening.

Looked shite, another one who won't hit the ground running. £30m and £90k a week.

Come on, you can't already say that. I thought he was poor, but it was 45 fucking minutes. Everyone was shit.

Yeah, I'm going to write him off after his first start. He didn't score or assist, it's just never going to work. Get rid in Jan.

I honestly didn’t think he was that bad, and was very surprised when he was the one that went off. He stays wide well, clearly has good foot work and beat his man a couple of times. He was way stronger on the ball than anyone else across the front. He had a decent shot as well.

It was no surprise to anyone on our row that he came off at half time, not because of what he did with the ball, but what he didn't do without it. A team selection Im glad we tried, but it didn't work, that not to say it wont when he's a bit more up to speed.

I was surprised he didn't get sixty minutes. Just because we are so lacking in numbers.

Going forward he showed flashes of promise but looked easily shoved off the ball, when we didn't have the ball he looked like a schoolboy, didn't know where his runner was, didn't get anywhere near the right defensive shape and his tackling was weak.

Overall, he could have done better. Decent shot mind.

Yup it was the physicality and off the ball work (or lack of) that was the biggest problem. Hopefully that’ll be addressed as he adapts.

If you aren't physical and don't work off the ball the Premier League isn't for you. Another one who hits the ground crawling.

It doesn’t help when he’s coming into a team with no attacking intent and a group of players that aren’t really arsed. Bet he’s wondering what the fuck he’s signed up for.

Mo Salah hasn’t done too bad.

Malen was worse in the first half.
