DUFFERS

Great resilience from West Brom to come back from one down and get in front early in the second half. After that there was no way back for Burnley. Whitwell and Price were outstanding, Sonne and Humphreys had a tough day in the office dealing with them. I thought the two centre halves, Phillips and Campbell for West Brom looked relatively comfortable and mopped up any danger well for the baggies. Morrison doing an outstanding job so far.

Arsenal dominant throughout and Coventry barely had a sniff. Tzolis looked dangerous and direct as per, as well as Calafiori and White offering a lot from both flanks. Simms will not be starting a premier league game again unless Awoniyi gets injured. Couldn’t trap the ball at all. Big money signing Yirenki looked like a bull in a china shop and Thomas was the only decent performer. Who looks like a proper old school centre half, stuck his body on the line numerous times.

3 moments of pure quality, made the contest seem a lot less even than it was. I thought LASK started better and had a few good opening chances including a disallowed goal. The big lad up top Adeniran was definitely a handful but lacked the killer instinct needed to keep LASK in the game. Nygren was quality and so creative all game, with his lovely half volley putting Celtic in front. As well as his assist for Duran’s second. Camilo Duran was phenomenal from the moment the game kicked off. Direct and rapid he had a few early chances, got himself into areas and I sensed a goal was always going to come. But to get the first in that fashion, An absolute screamer.
