Even though he was partly at fault for their first goal he gets my MotM. Brilliant. That cross field ball near the end almost gave me a heart attack though :lol:
 


Ugarte has made such a massive difference to our midfield. Of the players who were missing at the start against Newcastle, Ugarte was arguably the one we missed most.

The balls to attempt that given the circumstances, certainly not the one to budge under pressure.
 
2nd most important thing we can do in the transfer window after a CF who can score, is getting this guy a backup. We can rotate Mainoo and Bruno in midfield, we have nobody who can rotate Ugarte and given he's a played who likes getting stuck in and puts out a tremendous amount of work... It's needed.
 
Was brilliant today. Not only was he breaking their attacks, he was also doing a wonderful job to retain the ball in tight spaces.
 
I haven't rated him so far but he was superb today.

I actually think he was solid everytime he played. He should be one of the first names in the team sheet. Solid, closes on opponents well, covers well in front of the defenders. Fantastic today
 
Think he's our most important player already. He's Kante like off the ball and is tidy with good feet on it. Just hope we get someone who offers similar off the ball attributes as he's gonna pick up a lot of yellows.

Shades of the blind noscope backheel across City's frontline that led to the Amad winner against City. :lol:
 
Was great today. Only flaw was him trying to get back into position and leaving gakpo free for his goal.
 
The naysayers can do one. Our best signing in the summer.

That volleyed pass in the dying moments that helped setup the Maguire miss was tasty.

It was mad. I was screaming "back to keeper" and then he pulled out this psychic through ball to the wing with his back to goal that nearly created a winner :lol:
 
Technically is as capable as any DM in the league and also has aggression and awareness and never looking phased. And is only 23 years old.

I think it's safe to say we have finally signed a proper defensive midfielder.
 
I need to branch outside of the caf for takes on new transfers.

Most people who watched him at PSG said he was average on the ball and plays it safe at best.

He's not average on the ball - he's very good for a cdm. I'd say he's one of our better players on the ball and has great composure. He and Martinez and Amad.
 
Ander Herrera MKII but a bit tougher.
A bit? Imagine Mark Noble attempting to pick him up and walk him off the pitch? You'd need a forensics team to figure out what happened to his body.

"It appears that the victim suffocated on his own arsehole."

"I guess someone got banged and.... chatted shit."

Yeeeeeeaaaaahhhh
 
This guy is world class. What the feck was Luis Enrique thinking?

What a performance. On the ball he’s actually a very very good player. Press resistant as feck.

Defensively, nothing more to be said. He’s elite.
