So glad he got one over his former rat-employers. Great finish, nice to have another set-piece specialist in the team. Can see why we spent that €40m on him, has that special touch of class on the ball about him.

He may if just cemented his place as a starter for the next few games at least. Another great performance. I wish he took a shot instead of trying to play Pjanic in i was sure he was going to score again.

I just cant see how allegri can leave him out whilst dybala is injured..clearly he makes things happen and we need that. He is ready to seriously start ongoing and become the next big italian name player.

He should be hard to keep out even if and when Dybala ia fit. I wuld sacrifice either Khedira or Manbro. Dependng on the opponent and tactics of course.

This guy is really starting to look like a bargain.

He isn't the flair player some may have wanted in a winger but the guy is really versatile and a lot better than many of the versatile utility attackers we've had over the past few years. Can play a variety of positions, two footed, skillful enough, is physically large enough to fend for himself in the air or 50-50s, tracks back and has a mean left foot for striking the ball when passing and especially finishing. And while he may have barely played so far his numbers are fantastic. Looks like we might finally have that winger who has end product instead of just pace or workrate :p

Yup. He is not flair and fancy (and yes he has some of it but he doesnt abuse or depends on it)... but what i like is his no nonsensical style of play.

Gets the ball, passes it or tries something with his left if he see it worth. No tiki taka, step overs or crazy runs into no mans land. Straight to the point and very intelligent
