dunlopp9987 Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Keane. Great passing, looked calm and secure at the back and the winner. Massive shout for Iwobi though. What a game Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Keane. Every header went close to the half way line, other than the one that tucked right in the back of the net. Don't think anyone had a bad performance tonight. No one really stood out either, it wasn’t one of those matches. But we stuck to it and did a proper professional job.

markjazzbassist Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 tough call between keane and iwobi. i'll go iwobi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Went with Keane. Thought he didn't put a foot wrong today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggytop Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Keane, solid and assured in defence, lethal in their box. I said it at half time in the game thread, no one outstanding and no one stinking the place out, another good team performance all round.

Popular Post StevO Posted January 12, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Has anyone improved as much as Keane since Carlo came in? Unbelievable. And, again, give James the ball and he can make things happen, but he needs running. Him and Digne doing a job tonight.

badaids Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Keane was amazing, but Iwobi earned my MOTM vote. Direct and livewire play right out the trap. Great to see him score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly Mina - the pair have ‘matured’ and just become so consistent. Godfrey and Holgate have a huge task to get in, in their preferred roles but both doing brilliantly too. A great problem to have! Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir McGiven Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 I voted for Gomes. If I am not mistaken, he was the one who crossed the ball inside, right? The cross was beautiful and deserves more credit than the score IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 I went with Godfrey as Neto (who I think is a brilliant player) didn’t get a look in all game. For what brilliance Digne did in attack, it was clear he’s not 100% and struggled defending but having Godfrey behind prevented that being an issue. Iwobi was excellent as was James and Digne. Doucoure, once again showed great energy but the stand-out once again was our back 4. Looking at that line-up, I didn’t expect 3 points but there’s always a chance with Ancelotti’s tactical knowledge. A very satisfying win!

Palfy Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Tough choice for me between Iwobi and Keane not just because of the goals, more because how they performed both should class and attitude to win, went for Keane but could have went Iwobi and it wouldn’t have felt wrong.

Romey 1878 Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Keane. He just keeps getting and better, and I'm enjoying watching him be the leader of our defence. StevO and Sibdane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 also gone for Keane. Solid in defence - again, and gets the winning goal. Him and Mina becoming a very good pairing. We have a very solid foundation. but good performances all around. StevO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Keane, Mina, Iwobi or James. Pick your poison. Mine was for Keane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWooney Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 Good performance all round especially after we all looked in bewilderment at the team sheet! We looked really good on the ball, Rodriguez looking really lively constantly looking to pick players out, with Iwobi and Digne really benefiting from his vision and left boot. Our game has really missed that link up of Rodriguez knowing that Digne and Richarlison will be making runs down the left so it's great to have that option from Digne back. The only thing missing was someone i the box most of the time for Digne to pick out. Great defensively as well, the whole team contributing, Iwobi for example had the most tackles with 4 (successful) but Keane, Mina and Godfrey especially kept us strong. Really good to see the way Carlo could make the team adapt to the situation and not look lost with a different set up against a tough side. My pick for man of the match is Iwobi. He was constantly looking to attack them, make runs into the box and working hard up and down the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 Keane for me. Pinging balls all over the place and excellent defending. Iwobi was excellent first half and James played well also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 Could have been any from Keane, Mina, Iwobi and James but think Keane just edged it. Solid defensively, never stopped talking/organising the back four, pinging accurate long range passes all over the park and then comes up with the winning goal Mentions also for Digne, quality of his crosses is unreal and Tom Davies who I thought was decent without the ball ( not so good with it though ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go with that as well, Keane had a great game but I think Iwobi had his best ever game for us and fully deserves my Motm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
