He's an absolute class signing so far, didn't know he was that fast when we first signed him.
Having Welbeck try and mark Pirlo is ridiculous. It's like trying to get a golden retriever to stop a tennis ball machine.Because one is a machine designed for a very specific purpose that it is peerless at, and the other is a fucking dog.

Dealt fantastic with the power and strength of Lukaku. The lad is amazing, a real bargain, best of the summer signings so far.

What a fucking gem we've got! He's immense! He still makes some mistakes, but as soon as he clears those, he'd be up there with the best of the best of the best.

Martinez moved Lukaku to the right hoping he'd be able to dominate jut like he did against Monreal, but Moreno wasn't having any of that. What an absolute boss. Fan favourite already.

Alba is better and Bernat is a similar level as well. They are incredibly similar in style though if you think about it.
In terms of pace Moreno beats Bernat. Much stronger shot too. Bernat is abit tidier though

Would like to see him more in oppo final third making a threat to go on the outside of their fullback. Feels like we don`t have many designed moves involving him playing 1-2s in the final third and then making runs for someone like Coutinho to find him.

 We can see Coutinho struggling to find people as there`s no movement in front of him but if you watch best teams playing against the parked bus you can see a lot of those diagonal passes from the creative players towards their fullbacks. It`s an area we should improve upon significantly as it`s a great tool against the low block and with Moreno and Coutinho we have the tools for it.

Needs to backtrack better. Great attacks, but he shouldn't make so many that he doesn't have the lungs to get back in time. Especially when we're up 2-1. But he will learn.

He's a bit fast :-) Would be fun to see Moreno vs Sterling in a 30 meter sprint.

I don't think chasing the goalie and chasing the ball from player to player and then making Lallana play left back in the dying minutes are ways to kill the game.

I watched City again today and their 2 fullbacks love this. I've seen Moreno and Manquillo attempt to do this, so there is that hope that they are well aware of that, I just think things have been just a bit too nervy to attempt such brazen, confident moves.

If it goes tits-up, there would be enough space for a counter. Lets see what happens when we're on song, fully fit and confidence is soaring again.

I think he's been slightly over-rated so far, to be honest but has clear potential and has generally done well.

City`s constant overlapping is what I was getting at, we gotta do something similar more and more down the line of evolution of our team, it would be a crying shame if we don`t figure out how to incorporate more of the overlapping moves with someone who is made for it like Moreno, because it allows you more space in the box for our runners compared to having our wingers do that.

Yip- I feel that for Moreno, it could be particularly "easy" because of his pace and his skill on the ball. Would love to see that. You can cut quite a few teams open with that. Pellegrini's got a great tactic there and he arguably won the league with that.

Both him and Manquillo were in starting line-up for Spain U21 play-off first leg away in Serbia - the game just finished 0-0. Both were flawless defensively and most importantly haven`t picked up any injuries. Second leg is in Spain on Tuesday.
