Wow well, I think players in need of praise should be the underrated/maligned ones.
Well done Henderson, he was boss against Arsenal, probably his best game for a very long time.
Gomez – was surprisingly brilliant at left back. Although he did get caught out twice his recovery tackles and ability to come forward and help attack was impressive. We thought we only had one decent right back now Clyne might not get his place back! Also what I loved about Gomez was his ability to help out at the centre as well something Clyne sometimes struggles with.
Well done Matip (and Lovren)! Matip was assured and composed in his defending. Lovren had a good game and the third goal came from his defending header from arsenals corner.
Moreno – was really good too! Can’t believe this is the same guy that gave us the heebie jeebes, the same guy that gave two goals away almost a year ago to Arsenal at the emirates. I’ve been really impressed with him (apart from Hoffenheim away). I think we should consider keeping him as his pace adds to the overall threat as a team.
Winaljdum – I was starting to think Winajdum wasn’t good enough. But today he was really amazing, he showed what he could do with his neat touches and ability to hold and release the ball at the right time keeping the flow of our attacks. He isn’t a spectacular player but when he plays really well he shows a lot of grit and composure that we need.
