2nd half had to be better than the first.

Great quality from Ndombele, pure class with his finish.
And it's why Harry plays, even when he's not playing great, the man scores goals.
GLC has got some boots to fill, Eriksen made a huge difference.

Great result in the end.....COYS!

Thought KWP was excellent. Certainly a step up from Trippier last season.

He did well but IMO he still plays like he's won the lottery.

He needs to be more aggressive in attacking positions and show what he's good at.

Think KWP played well today, really well in fact. I’m not sure about him overall at the highest level but he started to prove me wrong today.

Ok, I see he gave the ball away a few time, so will he get the shit Lamela does? Or do we avoid it?

Weird issues to be raising. From what I could see he was a large part of us controlling the ball higher up the pitch and moving the ball faster. In turn this led to a strong spell of pressure and the eventual goals.

Lamela gets shit because he doesn't produce enough positive play to counteract the misplaced passes normally. Thankfully today though he managed to win the ball back for the 2nd which is more than enough for me.

Seriously! Appreciate your opinion but mine was the team got a lift, N'Dombele and Eriksen together were amazing. By the way before Eriksen 0-1 after 3-1!

I LOVE Eriksen but the formation change and Villa dying (which I'm sure was the plan - it's happened so often with our opposition) freed everyone up and he walked in to that. Either way, I'd love him to stay. There's a lot more football to come from this team this season, and it would be weird for Christian not to be part of it.

I’d rather see Eriksen stay and run down his contract than sell him now . Another season of him and Lo Celso and Ndombele can be bedded in and hopefully ready to be the main men for next season. At the end of the day we paid 11m for him and he will have been with us for 6 years . I don’t see how anyone could complain if that happens.

He needs to stay. We looked so much more cohesive going forward

funny thing today. Im not Lamela's biggest fan - think he's over-rated by a section of this board. Was literally thinking "we can close the book on Lamela" 30 seconds before he robbed Grealish and set up the winner. What the fuck do I know?
