Motm - Son - to be under that kind of pressure and score 2 absolutely quality goals tells us how good he really is.
I actually wasn't impressed by anyone in defence. When you play 3 at the back, one should at least be available to cover their partners being one on one. It's basics. But this formation is all about don't be the one that makes the mistake instead of fight for each other.
However, that's the system we play, invites pressure, which puts the defenders more into don't make a mistake mentality instead of defend as a team mentality.
Up until Son came on, I thought Leicester would get the equaliser, but his class was a huge difference maker.
I loved that we went 3-5-2, but not with bissouma, PEH and Bentacur as the three players feeding Son and Kane. We need 433 or 451.
Whilst 6-2 was great, up until 60 mins we made Leicester look better than they are.
