Martinez - not a lot to do but so cool with ball at his feet - probably the best there is at that part of the game - interesting how every time he had it in his hands WH players would do everything to stop him getting a kick away.
Cash - Such a good player he has become - very disciplined in his role (Not suprising when he has SUE in his ear hole all 2nd half)
Konsa - i really thought Lindelof was unlucky not to keep the position but Ezri had a very easy afternoon.
Torres - one mis controlled pass aside was his usual self and some great forward passing.
Digne - great shot (although possibly going wide) and i had to check that Bowen was actually playing - he marked him that well. Great to have him and Maatsen as options
Onana - My MOTM was everywhere and was actually getting stuck into some meaty challenges - patrolled centre really well and was instrumental in 2nd goal
Barclay - Close to being MOTM - very experienced and tidy footballer - kept our engine moving
McGinn - just a force of nature - i cannot think of any other player in the world who does what he does and how he does it - he needs to lift a trophy to cement his name in our history.
Sancho - another decent game, another couple of challenges bottled
Hope he keeps this form up till end of season but really hope we spend our money elsewhere rather than sign him up - he would be a costlier mistake that Coutiniho i fear.
Rogers - Was finding space due to us stretching their midfield - great drive for the 2nd goal - maybe should of had at least one for himself.
Watkins - worked his socks off and deserved a goal - maybe the pressure of having to re prove himself for England will fire him up (although how a donkey like Solanki is picked over him is bizarre) Very sharp to pounce on keepers fumble.
Subs:
Bailey - thought he held the line well and really stretched them
Tielemans - just oozes class
Luiz - did ok
Tammy - awful long attempt ( to be fair they only look good when they actually go in)
Buendia - showed a bit of fire
SUE
We all can question and even moan but this guy is the real deal. The old adage of "Have to be in it to win it"
European football in first season
Conference league semi final
Champions league qualification by finishing 4th
Qtr final of Champions league - beating Bayern / PSG along the way (nights that will stay in memory for ever)
FA Cup semi
Finishing 2nd in Europa league
Europa League Qtr final
And here in March after a really dodgy spell sit in a solidified position (i actually think we will finish 3rd )
Teams can win one off games but we are showing a level of being at the very top of the game season after season and earning our right to be considered a real challenger to the scum 6 - if only we were getting the credit we deserve.
