With Sandro settling in it's starting to feel a little less like the whole team rests on Bruno's shoulders, which is a good thing and hopefully can help Bruno get back to his best (saw some of that tonight!) - ThreadSky

Only the 2 assists for Bruno tonight, brilliant touch taking the ball round macallister, perfectly weighted ball for Isak, 2nd assist hmmm, but he is still our best player for me.

I think he is too, but too often it felt like everything rested on his shoulders in midfield, just happy to see someone share the load consistently - covering ground like Longstaff and putting in tackles like Joelinton and sprinting like Willock. Perfect foil for BG39 IMO

Couldn't agree more, when we were injury ravaged last season, he went so many games without a booking to avoid suspension and he maybe lost that aggressive edge, but tonali oozes class and Eddie might have found that balance on how to play them both, the old switcheroo 🤣🤣

He was colossus last season for us & the only reason we finished near European spots

He just crying 4 quality around him

previous season Willock, Joelinton and Longstaff all had periods of good form, but he needs players that are always at a good level even when form dips & Sandro looks that type

We have seen how good he is for a couple of seasons now and if he misplaces 1 pass then some berate him, we all know he probably is in the top 5 toon players of all time and need him, no-one does or can do what he does. Yes!! I'm a massive fan of his 🤣🤣

yeah, I don't think you're wrong. There's a reason so many folks thought Arsenal/City/Barca were gonna spend £100m on him this summer

He's started a little cold this season but he seems to be warming up now

Gordon Isak and Tonali all finding some form around him also.. bodes well I hope 😁
