Good result (poor match). Thought Dawson was so much better alongside Zouma (if I can say that today!). The weak link in our back four today was Coufal. He seems to be having a poor season.
Lanzini IMO made all the difference, a real intelligent player, Benrahma should watch him a bit… Unconvincing, but a win is a win, especially after the drama filled day.
Soucek & Coufal were the poorest for me, Antonio couldn’t get in the game & Rice was quiet too. Zouma & Dawson good, Fornals & Lanzini busy, Bowen the pick.
Coufal needs to be replaced by Johnson now. Doesn’t offer us anything going forward. Just checks back & passes backwards every time.

Greate.
He is so clear of Diop right now
Not a great performance
Bowen (and Rice) a class apart
A lot to work on though
Both CBs had a good game, actually. Bowen and Lanzini played well too.
The rest, bang average at best.
Antonio's form is a real worry. It's like playing with 10 at the moment. Makes the decision not to get him some support in January even more baffling.
Poor game, poor performance- 3 points.
Next.

10 games in 41 days now and we're going to be very stretched. Trusting madly to luck that we don't get injuries or suspensions.
