Zoo 2.0 Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 So hard to judge this game considering what's just happened to be honest, Dele only played 45 minutes but was excellent. Richarlison was just outstanding again - DCL huffed and puffed but essentially bagged us the goal that's secured our Premier League survival. Anthony Gordon rode challenge after challenge to keep us going up top, Iwobi was the Balon d'Or candidate we always knew he was. My heads totally fell off and I don't know who to pick - give it Rondon. Heath, StevO and MikeO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 The game completely turned on its head once Alli came on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Huge credit to the whole team. They never stopped fighting and that's all we want at the end of the day. Heath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I have gone for Keane. I thought he did well throughout (as did Holgate) but that finish was unreal. I'm not sure I would have backed anyone else to have put that away as well as he did. That goal started everything that came afterwards and was absolutely pivotal to the match and our survival. dunlopp9987, StevO and Heath 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I went for Iwobi, wouldn't surprise me if he was still doing laps around his garden right now. Heath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggytop Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Dele, his confidence and ease on the ball gave us so much more control which was severely lacking in the first half, closely run by Keane, Richy, DCL, Holgate, Pickford and Iwobi. So so happy this morning Heath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Keane - as CB really kept his cool for a great finish that became the catalyst for the turn around. So may others put in a great second half. Heath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWooney Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Tough one, based on that second half everyone worked so hard, ran themselves into the ground and actually played some good football. My main mentions would be Iwobi, was everywhere, always showing for the ball, looking to drive forward, play it and keep going and never stopped. Richarlison, just gives everything every game but some great work to create a few chances that didn't come off. Loved his solo celebration after DCL's goal! In the defence I thought Keane and Holgate both had superb games, Keane with a cracking finish and both defended brilliantly against good attackers. 10 clearences between them. DCL was immense, I know someone said he "huffed and puffed" but we played a lot of direct aerial stuff and he won 15 headers in that game, that's massive! We really need to make sure we get someone backing up those to get someone on it after he wins it but we have seen his value in the last 2 games with someone to aim at up front. The early chance against Brentford was the perfect example of how effective he can be when winning the ball when he won the ball which Gordon got on to and combined with Richarlison to come close. Brilliant header for the goal too. Shouts to Gray for being the only player in the team capable of a decent cross! My man of the match goes to Dele though, he's been knocked a lot and clearly hasn't been fit enough or up for the fight enough to make Frank think he should be getting game time but he put in a real shift when he came on, was calm on the ball, playing it round well, winning fouls and really making things happen when he had the ball.

Heath Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Michael Keane for me for his whole performance, not just because of the goal he scored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 I hope Iwobi continues to play next season as he has played the last 10 games, he could be a big player for us next season. It was close but i had to give it to Dele for an excellent performance. London Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 Was tempted to give it to either Dom or Dele, after all the criticism they've faced, but it had to be Iwobi again. The guy was everywhere and involved in most of the crucial moments. Heath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
