His long passing and crossing is brilliant.

Changed the game.

Keita couldn’t get into it for whatever reason.

I'd imagine he was pissed at not starting yesterday. And you can see where he's coming from.

The most goals outside of the front 3.

I was reading an interview of his yesterday and he was saying how happy he was he had started so many games in a row lately, probably the biggest number in his career and then the lineup dropped

He was exactly was needed yesterday. Really good contribution.

We have to be careful with him and after getting his knee jarred against AM the boss was never going to start him last night.

Ox speed up the game with his running and carrying the ball forward, opening up more spaces for the front 3!

He's amazing as an 8 when the game's more stretched - as is Hendo, for that matter. Interesting post from Yorky in the Keita thread saying the latter excels when there's no space, which I think Oxlade (and indeed Hendo) sometimes struggle with a little as 8s.

He certainly suited the game-state when he came on because he was excellent, really driving at West Ham and always looking to be positive on the ball.

I agree. When there is space for him to drive, and when the game is end to end, it suits him perfectly. he of course can score long rangers, but imo keita against parked buses is a better option as he progresses the ball into the box very well and links up well

He's been doing really well tonight and has been combining well with Salah and Trent on the right hand side. His selfless runs into the final third offer an option to Salah (who is playing much wider tonight) and giving him more license to cause havoc.

Awesome tonight. Loves the CL.

Our best player tonight, was constantly on it and showed real pace and desire throughout. Great performance.

Agree with this. He probably couldn't have done 120 minutes but I was gutted when we subbed him off.

farawayred · « **Reply #3572 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:48:13 pm »

Took proper advantage of the space Bobby made for him and was a constant thorn in their butts. Proper player having a proper game.

Perham · « **Reply #3573 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:48:24 pm »

Best player on the pitch for us tonight

TheShanklyGates · « **Reply #3574 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:48:48 pm »

Back to his best tonight.

DelTrotter · « **Reply #3575 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:49:05 pm »

He was great, loves the big occasion, was a shame he had to go off but he was goosed and taking huge breathers whenever there was a break so was the right decision, especially for him, gotta look after him!

RedEire · « **Reply #3576 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:50:02 pm »

Loved him tonight, great drive and gets himself into great positions. When he gets the ball within shooting range you know the opposition panic. Great shift tonight.

Ste08 · « **Reply #3577 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:50:53 pm »

He was excellent thats what we need every week

Samie · « **Reply #3578 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:52:00 pm »

Smash one in against the bitters Ox.

He was fantastic tonight.

Kashinoda · « **Reply #3579 on:** March 11, 2020, 10:59:30 pm »

Ran himself into the ground, was fantastic.

Harris96 · « **Reply #3580 on:** March 11, 2020, 11:00:18 pm »

Unreal, would say his best performance for us all round.

Wrong.

Played well vs Atletico. Thought he gave us energy and I expect him to start vs Everton after this performance.

Passmaster Molby · « **Reply #3583 on:** March 11, 2020, 11:08:00 pm »

He was brilliant, one of his best games for us.

OOS · « **Reply #3584 on:** March 11, 2020, 11:11:26 pm »

Playing like he never had a year off.

Didn't expect much after this injury, but credit to him, he's fighting to stay in this team. You can't train that mentality.

Captain Kos · « **Reply #3585 on:** March 11, 2020, 11:12:06 pm »

Going into the season I wondered how he would get regular games as the idea of a fabinho gini and hendo midfield seemed pretty concrete. From the showing tonight, on form that is our best midfield

deFacto please, you bastards · « **Reply #3586 on:** March 11, 2020, 11:13:20 pm »

Sensational tonight.

harryc · « **Reply #3588 on:** March 11, 2020, 11:57:12 pm »

MOTM for me shame he ran out of gas but that was understandable considering the effort he put in.

Tony19:6 · « **Reply #3589 on:** March 12, 2020, 12:07:40 am »

Played very well, love the way he takes the ball on the turn and drives forward. Great acceleration and one of the few who can hit them from range.
My Motm tonight.

JackWard33 · « **Reply #3590 on:** March 12, 2020, 12:14:40 am »

his best performance for us post injury

LallanaInPyjamas · « **Reply #3591 on:** March 12, 2020, 12:18:34 am »

Really really good - by far the highest offensive ceiling of any of our midfielders and arguably more importantly he improves Salah too.

Kopenhagen · « **Reply #3592 on:** March 12, 2020, 12:19:22 am »

Not good enough for us, they said.

Take a bow, son.

Fordy · « **Reply #3593 on:** March 12, 2020, 12:30:30 am »

Was quality. Shocked he was subbed off.

Think he ran himself into the ground. They couldn’t handle his pace, power and directness. Was fantastic

ApfelStudel · « **Reply #3595 on:** March 12, 2020, 12:53:10 am »

He is such a good player. A shame he has been so unlucky with injuries. I think he will have a massive next season if he stay can injury free.

rebel23 · « **Reply #3596 on:** March 12, 2020, 05:58:40 am »

Very impressed with the Ox last night.

He really is back to his best.
