Sorry Mick, Nothing against Sanchez. If you rate him, Great. My preconceived ideas were formulated over the past 4 years. Now he has 1 game in which he is average, you believe he is good enough.

Do you want to win a league? Do you really believe Sanchez will help us win a trophy? I suppose like many, your answer will be in the line of, "Conté's boring football limited Sanchez as a player, he fits in with Ange better. Bullshit, he is not good enough, period.
That's not what I said. So don't Condemn me for what you imagine I might be thinking - particularly when it was never what crossed my mind. You spend so long criticising players, that when they turn in the kind of performance that they were bought in for, you can't bring yourself to praise them, for fear it might taint your previous uber critical condemnation.
I simply said that today he played well, which he did.
The rest you invented
 
thought it was ok for a first match.

Players seemed hesitant to pull the trigger on shots or risky passes. Hope Ange has a few words.

Little surprised Ange didn’t make more subs. The guys worked hard. Energy level noticeably dropped. Lo Celso and Solomon could’ve been useful.
 
Isn’t modern football shit? No, really. Have only read the last couple of pages, not the match thread but we can’t celebrate anything or relax after a collision in the box without fretting for 2 mins after. And 11 fucking minutes??

The game and us: Bissouma was mustard. Really buoyed by that as must he be (what a cunt Conte is!). Maddison not far behind him. Thought Udogie and Emerson were more than competent. Like the cut of Micky’s jib (unfortunate OG aside). Sanchez hardly put a foot wrong.

Minus points / worry: Richarlison (will he come good? I’m not sure). Son still bumbling around - though against a defence that have him no room. The keeper worries me. Skipp not convincing as an 8 (if that’s where he was playing).

Man Utd a huge test next Saturday
 
Just watched the full match replay. Bissouma class. Maddison what we been crying out for for years. If only Richie or son could finish. Udogie, vdv looked really good. Unlucky with the deflection. Total dive for the pen.
Vicario worries me tho. It's like Hugo all over again. Stay in your box FFS. Why he always charging out and making a hash of it. Even when defenders are there
