Palfy Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Allan 100% no doubt other votes will be meaningless he took it by a country mile and I know I live in the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunlopp9987 Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Went with Coleman, but could've given it to Doucoure or Mina as well. Allan improved as it went on, but a midfield pairing of he and Doucoure has the potential to be spectacular Btay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggytop Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Pickford, made two vital stops I the first half and took control of his area with good punches in the second. Good all round performance with no one stinking the place out like last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badaids Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 If I had been kind I would have given it to Pickford. He had no right to make those 2 saves. However: COUNT DOUCOU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 James - genuine world class player. He wasn’t always involved but every single touch was top, top quality - we’ve lacked this for so long - SO GOOD! Same can be said for Allan and Doucoure and low and behold Gomes suddenly looks quality, Coleman shines, Gylfi comes on and does well... even Pickford - I’ve criticised him in the past but under less pressure, he did what he needed to do very well. I haven’t felt this good/relaxed watching us for a long time. COYB!!! Shukes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 So many had greats games. All 3 debutants were very impressive and started flawlessly. Shout out to carlo for starting all 3 i was worried at first sight of the starting line up. Pickford had a steady game which is refreshing and the back line as a whole did their job, Coleman coped with the difficult task of coming up with Son also. Dom did well, rusty at times but the header was a classic CF header and i really enjoyed it!, brilliant ball in by Digne too. For me richarlison despite not scoring had his best ever game for us. He rued two really good chances but his overall play was fantastic. His ball control in tight spaces was perfection and got us up the pitch over and over and over again. I actual prefer him on the left and that's why. Also not to get ahead of myself but James is going to be the best player we've had this century.

Elston Gunnn Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Several to chose from, which is a pleasant sensation. I voted Pickford, but Allan, Coleman, Doucoure, Richarlison played well. Gomes, too, first half. Wait, forgot James, who is class, showed it regularly. It’s but a single match, but I like the way Allan influences the game more than Gana’s approach. Palfy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 All of them, a proper team performance, but went for Allan, just from Doucoure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Pickford.... Could have been Coleman, James, Allan, Doucoure. But will go Pickford cos I give him so much shit for things that he actually showed excellent capabilities for today. I think attitude/approach/concentration is everything for him and today he showed it StevO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 I have been Pickfords biggest critic this summer. His save just before half time, gave us the platform to go and win that game in the second half, was as good as a goal. An away win to a top 6 team on the first day of the season will give the team massive confidence. Could off picked half a dozen players, all new signings where great. All three pretty much played the whole game, and look at home in the team. Hats of to Ancelotti. Gwlad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 I think all did well, Gomes did OK but was the “weakest” player. That’s not a reflection on him though, every other player was just better. Was tempted to give it to Doucoure, who was just everywhere and made several crucial tackles. Or Pickford for those saves and some good distribution. Back 2 were solid, Digne, DCL and Richarlison (who really should’ve had a hattrick) worked their asses off. Allan... A few moments where he was thinking he had more time than he did, but my word what an excellent debut. James is just on another level, did a bit too much walking, but when he was on the ball... my word. I cannot wait to see those two up and running at 100% But Coleman gets it. Not only did he nullify their left hand side, he covered for James and helped him so much. Got stuck in after that awful challenge on Richarlison too. Lead by example, as you’d expect, but effectively had 3 roles to play today and he just took it in his stride.

Haiku Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Gave it to Doucoure, because he was stand out in midfield, though everybody did well today even Siggy, which is a huge compliment for our overall performance. It could be anyone really and I'm pleased that it is going Pickford's way, because he was simply flawless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaiah Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Gave it to Pickford because of the psychological aspect to his performance. There was a lot of pressure on him to do well in this game and he rose to the occasion. But really, half the team are worthy of MOTM.

Shukes Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Calvert Lewyn. the lad held the line, created chances, and scored a great goal. Was only overshadowed, because he isn’t a new name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish Steve Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Doucoure. The increase in real talent was like an incoming tide lifting all boats. Doucoure's Prem experience showed, though, among the newcomers. Shukes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Btay Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Glad to have a game where it’s a choice between 5/6 players. No one played poorly, our back 5 were a unit lead excellent by coleman. Mina and Keane dominated everything in the air. Digne - what a ball. World class. Pickford was excellent, commanded his area and kept us in the game with some quality saves. Midfield, energy, efficient and effective. First run out for them so if this is the template, the teaser of what’s the come we can all forgive ourselves for being a little bit excited. Richarlison should have had a few but it’s just good to see chances created. Dom, full of running. Picked out James well and should have gotten an assist. Great header. MOM - Coleman. We talk about James being world class but so is Son. Coleman didn’t give him an inch all game, nullified their threat with ease and allowed our talisman to influence the game in areas we want him. Carlo - brave to start the new boys as well because if we lose, that’s instantly the excuse and criticism. Didn’t mind the role siggy came on into as well.

Cisk Posted September 14, 2020 Report Share Posted September 14, 2020 Joined the Pickford bus.... His saves were crucial to getting that result. Not sure how we would have responded to them taking the lead first. If there was a Professor Carlo option I would have selected that though! Top choices to play all 3 new boys and formation change. Spurs very poor and very defensively set - I did wonder if we had swapped kits with them before kick-off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 100% with both, seems clear to me that the pundits still don’t want to give us any credit when we beat a supposedly higher team, same as when we thumped Man U at Goodison season before last.
