Few points. Struggle to pick a MOM there. Great team effort. There seems to be a great spirit at the club at the minute.

Axel looked so calm and composed after so long out, and never put a foot wrong. To be fair the whole defence were immense. Shaw is definitely better in a three. Great game for him. Sure-footed and positive.

Fred's passing scares the clean rubbish out of me, but his energy and attitude brings so much to the middle of the park. Credit to McTom as well for keeping his head after a fairly early yellow card.

And finally, for all Ole gets stick on here for his lack of tactical acumen, his record against the top teams is hard to beat. Spot on tonight again.

Ps. Great strike from Marcus. Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.

They were certainly up for it, even Pogba when he came on. Fred isn’t pretty but the amount of covering he does is immense and sometimes you need that to let others play. Good performance, great result.

Oh, and Telles has a great corner in him. Oh, and I loved the way we kept looking for a winner after they equalised, rather than try and settle for what we had. No negativity. This team are maybe starting to realise they are good enough to compete against the best.

Excellent performance. Axel was fantastic and is the type of athletic centre back we have been crying out for. He is a must start moving forward. It's also incredible that we actually had some quality corners go into the box as well. Telles in particular hit a couple of great ones.

Very very unexpected result in my opinion, I was hoping we could hold on and nick a draw but the win was fully deserved. Credit to the players and to Ole.
