MikeO Posted August 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Even with ten minutes left, whatever the result, DCL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter H Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Pickford but could have given it to Jags and Holgate. Rooney and DCL not far behind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 DCL. I've been very critical of him but he was excellent worked hard and great counter attacks and assist for the goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 One of the best performances I've seen in recent seasons tonight. DCL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isaiah Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 DCL. Holgate was great too, minus the poor header. Very solid core of young English players we've put together here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 DCL. Enjoyed watching him tonight. I though he did brilliantly and is growing with each game. I think many times he was let down by his supporting players not getting up with him quick enough. He took it to City with no fear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 DCL... Rooney took the opportunity to praise him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Holgate if he hasn't messed up. DCL looked a first team player today,very mature for his age. Jags the most composed of the back three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 DCL will win it but I thought Holgate was immense (bar the header for the goal), very solid defensively and good going forward, it was DCL and him that created Rooney's goal. DCL was great, with performances like that we may not need another striker, actually we do but now we need a mature striker to help him learn, and take the pressure off.

Maybe give him until January to show what he can do. But on second thought we need to compete with the big boys this year and giving DCL the first choice striker role could be suicide.

I agree so get an experienced one who wont stand in DCL's way next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Jags - solid and composed. Special mention to Calvert-Lewin - tireless effort. We do need a more experienced target man but DCL will get plenty of opportunities and on recent evidence it's looking really positive.

Bill Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 We have a very talented player in DCL, stood out as MOTM tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Without a shadow of a doubt, DCL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Calvert Lewin strikes me as one of those players (Vaughan/Anichebe esc) that are a chairmans dream. Let's get by for a season without buying a proper number 9. I think the lad will win hearts on shear effort but no way he should be leading the line for us this season. Koeman does seem to have a fetish for him though! Edited August 21, 2017 by MC11 aaron 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 But as many have pointed out before, play DCL in his natural position and you'll see what he can do. We all saw what has capable of up top. Well done dude for knuckling down and terrorising a £150m+ back line. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) DCL all day, Holgate had a great game (apart from the one mistake). Pickford's distribution was shite last night though. Edited August 22, 2017 by aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 Pickford's distribution was shite last night though. Seems he's a lot weaker on his right foot. Some of the balls back to him didn't help but overall it wasn't his usual standard... still pinged a few beauties though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just some of them went wayward more times than hitting the target. MC11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 DCL for me today too. Superb performance in the context of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
