Agree. He schooled the Watford attack.

Also remember this is Nuno's 5th competitive game. Five games, four wins, one goal conceded and one defeat (that one was a very poor second XI and youth on the bench).
If you can't see the solid foundations being put in place I have no hope for you.

Long way to go but it's a solid start to the season with plenty of promise for more to come. COYS!

Skipp and Dele excellent
The team were on the front foot and won the 50 50's - keep it going

I thought we carried Satchel for most of the game!

Very happy with three wins out of three. That's an excellent start and a great foundation to build on. That said, I'm not entirely convinced about Hojbjerg in the box-to-box role. He looks a bit lost in the final third and I don't think he has the subtlety of passing to be great there. Obviously puts in 100% work rate though.
Feel we definitely need reinforcements though especially if two of our supposed first teamers (NDombele and Aurier) aren't going to get s look in. Let's see what the next 48 hours holds eh?

Why is Sherwood so bitter
It’s a win. Jammy goal disguises a pretty drab performance. Hard to argue with 3 wins out of 3 but we were crying out for greater control and creativity there. May as well sell GLC if not getting a run in a game like this.
Good peformances by Sanchez, Skipp and PEH. Not convinced Tangaganga is the answer at RB.

Won first three games for the first time, beat City, not conceded a goal, kept Kane, top of the league.
8 shots on target.
Still people moaning.
Youre right, and personally im ecstatic. However we have been here before, last season I think where we top of the table playing poor football... i dont think we are poor and its certainly a bit more attacking than Jose ball but I can see why some are hesitant.
Our next fixtures after the break are tough

With respect, we held onto a few wins like this early on last season too but it didn't last. Eventually, you can't keep riding your luck and hanging onto 1-0 leads in this league. The lack of any progressive substitutions was poor from Nuno and was the exact move (or lack thereof) that Mourinho got slaughtered for last season.
We might have won but it could have been so, so much easier. Not every game needs to be a horrendous slog to the finish. We have the technical quality to simply outclass teams - why drop to their level by not playing these players and choosing instead to scrap to the win?
