His goal would have been amazing.

And is there a clip of the skill on touch line??
This is the best I can find;

Can't wait to see him in a full strength team, hopefully with the team in the Champions league. He's settled in the most difficult circumstances so when the level goes up around him, he'll be even more awesome to watch!

I want to see the angle in which the Burnley player has to play to get back in.

Loved his little celebration when he won that free kick. Be nice if the oppo got some reds for the constant assaults on him.

He’s going to be unreal next season. Feel like he’s fully adopted to the pace and tempo of the game now and next year with big Virgil behind him as well as having hendo back in midfield will allow him to concentrate more on bossing the game. His defensive part of his game has been so much better lately as well. Not giving away those stupid fouls that he was giving away a few months ago

Plus no sulking, no acting like he regrets coming here or body language saying 'What have I come into? Get me outta here'. He's rolled up his sleeves and taken responsibility and left everything out there to bring us the best close to the season possible.

He is like 90% of the reason we got into top 4. He has been insane these past 8 games. Only reason we drew against Newcastle was because we took him off at the end.

Runs the show and brings others into it.

The last ten games have been exactly what we needed from him and from the team in general. He's grown into it and starting to play with the assurance and borderline arrogance that you expect when you bring someone of his quality in.

The title was gone in February. Since then it's been about building some momentum for next season and that's what we've got. Thiago has been a big part of it and he's been leading by example.

Think it's fair to say that Thiago has looked like the ultimate luxury player in midfield first half of the season, and maybe the 'give it Thiago' for the 2nd half. Or a blurring between these two distinct realities.

In short, he can stay.
