Soler was good, Pacqueta had his best game of the season IMO (although he gave the ball away too often), but I'd give it to Wan-Bissaka for his all round performance and (run for) his goal.
At last we had a functioning midfield, with Paqueta and Soucek playing to their strengths. And imo that was down to Soler, who glued it all together, and who is my choice for mom.
I make that 5 apiece for Bowen, Wan-Bissaka and Antonio, 2 for Soler and 1 (his first vote of the season, despite a lot of people agreeing he’s had a good season so far) for Soucek.
Interesting that Sky gave MOTM to Paqueta who has no votes on here
It was definitely one of his better performances this season imo, but his decision making at times led to him giving the ball away cheaply in dangerous areas.

buffy said AWB after this summary, so no need for a tie-breaker claret+bluesky.

But could have gone for Antonio or Paqueta.
Coz up to now he has shown me nothing to get excited about.
Soler — happy days
AWB nicks it with 6.
