Sanchez injured himself at around the 50th minute against Southampton. Yet he's still playing and scoring.
Lovely to be able to sit back and enjoy a game where we're cruising. Haven't been able to say that for a while.
That back three has potential. Monreal did well on the left also. Xhaka was decent too. Possibly our best performance playing a 343.
Monreal and Xhaka deserve a lot of credit for that game. Everybody has improved since the switch to 3-3, but those two in particular have been playing really well. It's great to finally see the player that we thought we had bought in Xhaka.
I have to say. It's really frustrating to watch us play like this at times when you saw how poor we performed from February all the way into April. We've broken the Mourinho, St. Mary's and Britannia Stadium hoodoos in the space of a week. This would never have happened a month back. Why is it when the league is done and dusted that we start to look like a formidable side? Really annoys me.
Agreed, frustrating. But we just have to take what we can from this season now. If we can take this form into the FA cup final, then we have a great chance for some Silverware.
