For 80 odd minutes, his game management was absolutely first class. He’s again proven to be a good manager especially when it comes to big games.
He lost in the end coupled by a mistake from keeper and his hunch that adding more energy will help protect the lead, which is not a very insensible call. He got the call right with Davis though.
I would have taken him earlier and after today, as well. He knows how to win, and not a fraud like some others.
On a different note, Laimer was so good today, we need someone of that mold, and will fit in as the combative midfielder we dearly need. Will be affordable too maybe.
