When he kicked the ball out of play with half the pitch to run into I thought his confidence might have been dented but shortly after he took the excellent pass from Emi and laid it in a plate for McGinn.

For those who haven't heard his interview, Emi spoke to Sancho at half time and said he'd spotted the space for Sancho to run into and he'd release the ball immediately into Sancho's path to run on to, so be ready. Sancho was ready, Emi delivered. Sancho put the ball on a plate for SJM. The fact Sancho went running back to to find Emi to celebrate rather than SJM says it all.

A wonderful and memorable goal.
I love shit like that

I thought he was generally good last night. Apart from kicking it out of play

He was good, very assured. What pissed me off more than him running it out of play was a later incident when Ollie had done really well to beat his man, looked up to see no-one at all in the box and Jadon meandering goalward at a gentle jog.

I've said it before but what doesn't help him, and he can do nothing about, is that he isn't the type of player we thought we were getting, a thrusting but inconsistent winger, capable of occasionally burning past his marker, he's more a steady wide midfielder who keeps the shape and the ball. Meat and two veg.
