    He was playing very well when he got subbed. Don’t think it was based on his performance because he was easily better than Arne.

    I wanted to see him in the deeper role as the back-up to McGregor.

    But I don't like him in it so far, I think he goes too high up the pitch so he's never involved in bringing the ball out the back. He does use the ball well and is quality in tight spaces and at winning the ball but he needs to play about 15 yards deeper for me to help us progress the ball out the back quicker.

    Engels I thought was much better when he was moved there, just as he sat deeper and used the ball from the back better. He looks more natural in that role.

    He's not a sitting player, nah.

    Think you see the best from him on the turn and driving at the opposition. For me he's an archetypal no.8.

    Really liking him this season now.

    Much like Engels, gonna have some hot and cold moments. But the pair of them for the next two or three years with McGregor and Mccowan doesn't look too bad at all.

    Then we still have Hatate!

    That touch in the build up for the 6th was special

    When he first came on he couldn’t do anything right then clicked into his usual classy self. Great touch in build up to goal 6.

    For in our midfield we have

    McGregor
    Engels or Bernardo
    Hatate or McCowan

    You could possibly play Engels as the alternative to McGregor and play Bernardo in his more attacking place.

    Showcased his incredible awareness a few times, most noticably for the goal; but he had a few bad touches and passes that lost the ball too. Seems weird to say this about someone that's come through Benfica's academy; but he needs to work on his close control and short passing IMO.

    One of my favourite players at the moment. He is so classy with his touches in the ball.

    Rewatching the game again. He was brilliant when he came on.

    Btw I've noticed he's replaced Starfelt for Michael Stewart. * is never done criticising him.
