I refer to serge often starting with Sissoko on the right. Especially during Auriers first few games.

Like I say, if that is the case then I'm sure it's either a coincidence or down to tactical reasons rather than purely because Sissoko speaks French. Not only does Aurier speak a bit of English but like I say, he'd have other French speakers around him even if SIssoko wasn't ther. Off the top of my head, Hugo, Jan, and Dembele all speak perfect French and Toby speaks it as well but I think to a lesser extent (he tends to listen to French questions and then answer in Flemish in the clips I've seen of him so I'm sure he can speak French fine when he wants to/when it's not on camera etc.)

i liked what i saw in that video. Strong on the ball, nice little deft touches and good awareness of space. But it's obvious that it will take some time for our players to get used to him.

MOTM for me in those clips. Brilliant first start. Looks like he’s adapted so quickly to his new surroundings

Good on the ball
Strong in the hips
Holds off players with ease
Great range of passing
Skilful
Quick
Fleet of foot
Great vision
Amazing in the air
Incredible finisher
Nice throw ins
Strong in the tackle
Stupendous shooting ability
Lovely boots
Good dress sense
Top handshake celebration

Amazing what you can pick up from a kick about in the park

Do me a favour, let’s wait until he gets on the bloody pitch in a competitive game situation

Comes here: sees our amazing training ground and our stunning new stadium, we beat manure, scum, advance to next round of cup; we.re still in CL; he's got a good mate here in Aurier, squad full of quality....

Has there ever been a player come here to such a bag full of goodies?

Disappointed to not see him today buy totally understand why he was brought on by Poch.

Hopefully he can play some part against Juve

We're so good that he might start to wonder whether he'll start for us.

Good, it'll make him work harder.


All he needs to do is look at Son. Perform week in, week out from the bench and you'll eventually work your way in to the team be it through injuries or players form dipping. I see Poch as an incredibly fair manager who will give players the chance if they show they're good enough.

Thought he was outstanding tonight.

On a serious note, he was only on a few minutes but he looked sharp, always looked to go forward with the ball and kept composed.

Excited to see his full debut on Sunday.

Hes probably thinking, I heard they were good but I didnt know they were that good.

Oh, and 2 home games in front of 83,000 fans. Cant be bad.

Moura will split opinion for sure. He will dribble for fun some will come off some won’t. But in a game like Swansea at Wembley this season just what we needed.i have my doubts if he is disciplined enough for 90 mins in a game like tonight but we will see if Poch can work his magic.

he had a couple of good direct runs at them in the short time he was on. you can see what he's trying to do and how he might be effective. he wasnt tentative.

Disappointed in him, after being involved in a third of PSG's goals last season I thought he would at least get a hat-trick in 5 minutes. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt though

Liked the little glimpse we got last night. Looked positive, direct; as people expect, he may well be the key we need to open so many of those locks in defensive Prem games.
