4-0 FT. Remarkable turnaround in performance from the first half. This was more like the game against Leeds than the Everton game, for me. Lopsided scoreline, but it definitely doesn't tell the whole story. Happy that Lloris got his well-earned clean sheet.
About to post about him. ****ing rolls Royce of a player with that toughness as well you need to make it in the premier league. Him being fit and the other two signings have completely transformed this team. Buzzing
Well happy with that win though based on the second half, much improved from us. Needed to capitalise on earlier results, something we don’t always do. As PNP also said, happy for Hugo getting the clean sheet, he really earned that today. That first or second save was phenomenal and he done what was needed in that first half to keep us in the game for our front three to then take over in the second.
What a 2nd half , but the chances villa had a decent team will spank us , any way hard cheese Gerrard
Maddest thing is I don’t think Son played that well today and yet he got a hattrick. It felt like he only touched the ball about 6 times and 3 of them were goals! I’d say Lloris purely because the front three’s second half would’ve been in vain without him keeping us in it in the first. Kane, Romero and Hojbjerg all with very strong second halves though.
I know the hat trick guy always get the MoM award but for me, it was Hugo. Only one mistake but so many critical saves in the first half!
Quite brutal from Jon Veal but also somewhat correct. Sorry, Lucas. The difference in quality and especially end product between him and Kulusevski (who probably had one of his quietest games today) is very apparent.
I must be critical of Hugo more often. Great performance from him and the near post save!!!! His weakness according to me
