    Harrison will come back in for Alioski and Rodrigo will start ahead of Roberts.

    I think Rodrigo needs time to get up to full fitness.
    I thought Poveda looked sharp. Rodrigo is class and Koch was awesome. I thought Ayling, Dallas and Klich were excellent. I bet Cooper was too but we just didn't see it.
    Costa was a bit lost and got bullied. Philips was under a huge amount of pressure and he struggled a couple of times

    BBC commentator said best game he's seen so far this season. We're definitely gathering admirers.

    Dallas was more or less stationary for the last 15 minutes. I don't know if he picked up a knock but just stood there on the edge of his box whilst others were going charging in.

    Very lucky not to be sent off.

    Rodrigo was great but he looked as tired as the rest at the end despite playing 45 minutes less. I think Harrison will start and it will be same starting 11. Again the only negative was Roberts, not the poor lads fault, he just isn’t good enough.

    Poveda, Harrison and Costa why are we looking for another winger?

    If Rodrigo is fit to start for Spain......

    Every team with a new signing seems to start straight away.

    The Sky Sports pro's were asked whether a team should bring their new players in gradually, and they all said 'what is the point'? 'You want them to get up to speed ASAP and the only way they'll do that is to play them'

    Agree?

    Poveda looked great.

    One point about Costa. I thought he had more pace?

    We had three 1 on 1's.

    Ayling, Rodrigo and Bamford.

    We could have won today!

    Think with Rodrigo it must be not quite up to 90 mins yet, that's why he's only getting a half, but soon he will be one of the first names on the sheet. Poveda had a great game, but atm he's a game changer sub imo.


    Now over to him of little faith, JAMMY <whistle>

    He does look fooking class, Garry Neville I played Rodrego on the wing, I should have played him in the middle.
