[Untouchable]

Votes here please!

I’ve gone for Fabio. Looked sharp in the first half and a very well taken goal.

 

[CTBee]

Fabio did well after a year out with a very serious injury. Expected him to be a bit rusty but not a bit of it.

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Wilson (not the Jim’s dog one).

 

[ziggys_human]

no one jumps out at me

 

[JCMcBee]

...got to be the ref.... failing that...Dams... for putting his foot on the ball.

 

[Baubaul]

Ricoooooooooooooo

 

[North London Bee]

Has to be Rico. Superb in two positions and great last ditch covering tackle.

 

[Jim Rourke]

Rico is just reliable Rico. Even when the short lad plays at centre back.

Long may he give Keith a headache

 

[jonnamanuk]

I thought Dams.

Massive credit to Fab. Kept it simple. Kept things moving. Played well in Dams role.

And a goal

I'm troubled by my choice of Ouattara for his two assist because he was otherwise a miserable failure with any of his own goal attempts... good bits and bad bits.

Otherwise, Carvalho was very mobile buzzing around the front line and Henry did well at CB, reacting quickly and standing out centrally, then putting in a good performance in his natural position. Wilson showed what a good signing he is; that's going to matter over the course of this season.

 

[Simon C]

I didn't expect Rico to be the sort of player to age into being a centre back and I still don't expect to. However he didn't let anyone down and his old fashioned, last ditch moments saved us today

 

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Rico for me

 

[BFC1997]

Someone vote for Carvalho for me. Cheers

 

[callum2468]

Balcombe to start against Chelsea!

 

[Catbee]

Decent team display..have given to Dams as I just love watching him play

 

[Gazza Bee]

Kayode for me, back to his mauruding best tonight

 

[Dribble chop]

Went for Ajar, most composed on the ball.

 

[badgerbee]

Between Rico and Kayode for me.
Gone for MK.

 

[fencer/bee]

It's funny what us fans see when watching, i thought Dams had a poor/avg game by his standards , i voted for Kayode , strong in defence and a massive threat going forward

Yes it is funny how fans watching same game see different aspects. I thought Dams played really well, always looking to receive the ball in tight spaces and looking to play forward. I would like to see his running stats since his pressing and closing down was very impressive.

 

[TW3Bee]

Between Rico and Kayode for me.
Gone for MK.

Same here.
Rico starting at CB, then moving to his regular LB, made one great last ditch tackle, but MK was everywhere, so gets my vote.

 

[Bangor Bee]

Damsgaard started poorly I thought, but as the game went on he linked things together very well, looking much more like his old self. Improvement from Kayode, too.

 

[Edmundo]

Man of the match: Rico Henry (3 points)
