Is anyone else besides me excited about Nketiah?

IMO he has really good striker instincts. I hope Unai gives him some minutes instead of Welbeck.

This.

People get so worked up about positions.

They are both smart players and know when to be where.

Both can roam in and out between striker and wing position. Makes harder to defend.

They play well off each other.

Not just you, loved him since that Norwich game. Likeable kid and looks like a natural scorer, can't wait to see more.

It was a much better starting line up than we usually put out against Borehamwood.

Good run out for the boys.

This. Not a single ugly goal in there.

More serious tests coming up against Atlético and PSG on the 26th and 28th.

Aubas first was pick of the day for me followed by Jeff and wilock.

All great goals, although the opposition weren't really great.

I hope Sokratis was just having an off-day. Looked even worse than Mustafi.

Also interesting is Chambers was played as a DM.
