I was surprised, impressed and consequently extremely delighted. We started pretty well and could have scored a beautiful goal had Morata not interefered with the play. We then slowly invited City to the game and let them dictate the rest of the first half forcing Buffon into some great saves and watching their players shoot like amateurs. The second half saw us up our game where we had better understanding of their efforts, we defended in a smarter way and looked to go forward in a less chaotic fashion. What impressed me most was how we kept our cool after conceding until Pogba pulled that superb ball. When Kompany left the field it was just a great opportunity to finish off the game and it couldn't get more beautiful than that sublime strike from Morata. Now all has been said and not a single praise went to Cuadrado but that is because I save the best for last as he was by far our best player out there.
