Player Valuation: £100m
I agree, I think knowing he has that cover from Schneiderlin really helps him. Both of them really feed off of eachother, because they know they have a very competent, talented, energetic player behind them it frees them up to go in for more tackles, and press forward a little more. Less thinking, more reacting. I think our midfield bossed the game today, until we got bored of it.
said the same during, they absolutely ran the show. Okay, it was against a leicester team who weren't particularly strong in that department, but all 3 of them cut out so many balls and if we lost it, they would win it back straight away at pace, and laid it off, and then a quick give and go and then fed to the attackers. It was a bit of a masterclass tbh and the form central midfield trio in the league right now you'd say. Davies was a bit tired near the end, but he put in another mammoth shift.
But yeah, leicester's game play was ball over the top on the counter, so we got that 2 goal cushion and just said, we're not going to give another chance to get back into the game so you try and play through us now.
