It's clear to see how Nuno wants us to play with our new wingbacks and Alt Nouri was superb tonight, my MotM. In fact I couldn't fault any of the starting eleven tonight, although Willy Boly still doesn't appear assured as he has been over the last three seasons.

We are a team that has to progress. Fosun demands it and so does Nuno. After what we've achieved over the last two years in the Premier League it was only a matter of time before we frightened the top teams to take us seriously and work out how to play against us. Most of our fans I've seen on Social Media have been questioning us selling Doherty and Jota, claiming we've become weaker. I think tonight proves that's not the case. I believe Nuno has a new dream, a new ride. It might not come altogether as fast as we'd like but come together I'm sure it will.
