Match Ratings Ratings vs Forest

[DannyNZ]

Hats off to Forster, Richarlison and Porro.

Skipp was good as well, and so was Hojbjerg.

Kane and Son for the goals.

Only slight disappointment was Lenglet.

Don’t agree regarding Lenglet thought he was fine and equally as good as Dier and Davies.

 

[DannyNZ]

Outstanding performances from Richy, Skipp and Porro. Common denominator they played at pace with energy and passion And fair bit of quality too.

Richarlison by a country mile. He showed great character to not let the ludicrous furor over his midweek comments(people aren’t allowed to have an opinion?) and a disgraceful decision to disallow his goal to affect his performance. He was at the heart of everything we did good today and never stopped battling. He has to start every game from now to the end of the season. The 3rd spot in the front 3 is a battle between Son and Kulusevski but he should be a nailed on starter alongside Kane.

I think that's an exaggeration, since both Son and Kulusevski have shown at extended times a level even higher to what Richarlisson showed today. But I do agree that at the moment he's topping both of them.

Skipp for me. Maybe that will open a few eyes of those that say he's not progressive and can't pass forward. Really glad he's got his chance (and Sarr deserves the same) and quite a travesty they've been overlooked until there was no choice. Shows up how stubborn Conte is.

Both have very high ceilings. In particular, Sarr looks like a very special player in the making.

My MoM was Richy. Showed strong mental resolve. Especially after having his goal disallowed. He’s very emotional. But he kept focused and was very solid. Worked his socks off.

Can you really blame Conte for that? Bentancur was playing at an exceptionally high level before his injury and he was pretty much being our player of the season, Hojbjerg is usually very solid and an established starter (even though I can't stand him at times), and Bissouma costed a lot of money and we need to avoid him becoming another Lo Celso/Ndombele. On the other hand, Skipp just kept getting injured and he needed to be handled with utmost caution and Sarr was supposed to be more of a long term prospect.

This season we have been very unlucky in terms of injuries and external situation regarding the coaching staff, but next season we probably are going to have a very nice problem, with plenty of options to fill in the midfield, specially if Bissouma starts delivering.

Glad to see Foster (8) literally standing tall.
Skipp for me overall (8+)..
Liking the look of Porro (7+) more and more.
Poor opposition but job done
and Liverpool's slip up opportunity grasped for once.

Son is so much better when Perisic is not in the team. Perisic takes up spaces wide and in front of Son, spaces that Son would normally exploit. Davis stays behind Son more.
