sorry but how many do you have to score to be first on MOTD?
The media have it in for us don't you know.

No just himThe media have it in for us don't you know.
You'll get over it.I feel guilty to enjoy watching us winning without Poch being around anymore.
100%. Burnely actually showed up, they tried, they had their chances and in fact early on we were lucky to not concede. Tottenham was just that much better.I’ve just watched the game of the day on Sky. Those who feel the need to say Burnley were woeful really need to soak their collective heads. We didn’t score 5 because Burnley never turned up, we scored 5 because we utterly outclassed them in every area of the pitch.
Our shape was excellent. What I really noticed was the way we controlled space when we didn’t have the ball, closing down passing channels, pressing them back into their own half, hunting in packs without actually overextending ourselves. The off the ball work was, I felt, the most noticeable improvement for me.
As for our movement when we had the ball, absolutely superb. We mixed up the way we attacked, whether it be long ball, build from the back or individual brilliance, we got the full bag of tricks today.
Burnley got schooled today by a superb performance.
He will be absolutely irate that we only had 51% possession.Wish Beece was here after an excellent 5-0 win, furiously eviscerating Alli in long-hand for not playing that easy square pass to Son when both of them went through on goal. Only blemish of an otherwise perfect day is that post not being in this thread to liven things up.
Warms the cockles eh?He will be absolutely irate that we only had 51% possession.
It really was awesome. If Son wasn't firmly on the radar of the big big big teams before, he most certainly is now. Given how much better he's gotten year after year, i can see a Real, Barca, PSG and Bayern all sniffing around and and potentially waving wads of cash at Son and Levy. In today's market he must be a 80 to 100m player... Or more.I loved Harry’s first goal, took me back a few years, and remembered when he was scoring them for fun.
But Son’s goal was extraordinary. I’ve watched it a few times now, and still can’t believe it.

Truly one of the best when he's on song.
Agree with this completely.Ok. Well ive had time to reflect so i didnt overreact to a great win
Gazzaniga - 6 - had nothing to do
Aurier - 6 i mean, i could go back and rewatch and probably count 5 or 6 unnecessary fouls.
Sanchez - 9 - great defensive display. His was a magnet for the ball. Brilliant stuff
Toby - 7 His long balls are his best asset And were key today. But at this point, they are the only thing keeping him in the team for me
Jan - 8 A solid performance at LB.
Dier - 7 Awful give away in the first half aside, finally a solid performance.
Sissoko - 8 HE SCORES WHEN HE WANTS
Lucas - 8 Got a goal. Good performance too
Dele - 8 Played very well even without a goal. Loving this new Dele
Son - 10 Well what is there to say. Simply stunning performance. Caused Burnley fits and wreaked havoc on their defense. Had a sensational goal that might be the best individual goal we’ve seen in quite some time. Incredible. Easy MOTM.
Kane - 9 Two very good goals and a great performance. Would have taken him off as he was taking a ton of knocks but i understand leaving him on to try to get the hat trick
Ok. Well ive had time to reflect so i didnt overreact to a great win
