These quarter finals have been absolute class, tomorrow should be fun.

So stupid from Cancelo, absolutely no need for that.

Massive dive but think it’s a red, Araujo had his arm on Barcola’s shoulder.

Please do explain why his xA numbers are 4-5x better than they were at Leicester during five seasons if his general play has always been so good.

Based on the 10000 league minutes he played at Leicester, yes. His xA numbers were not that different to Almiron. As I said, I don't know what has happened this season but it's a massive outlier to his previous career.

I don't really get your logic at all, just plain dumb. If you want to disregard five seasons worth of data with 537 minutes with us you can do that but I really don't see what's funny about that. Oh look, his xA numbers have taken a massive jump this season too! It's a really small sample size but either his attributes fit Howe's system better, his role was different at Leicester or he links up really well with Isak and Gordon (or it's a really small sample size). I've definitely been positively surprised with his overall contributions and not just his finishing, hope he can keep it up. 0.95 non-penalty xG+xA per 90 would mean he's an absolute elite player statistically in this league. Isak is at 0.78 and Gordon at 0.58 just for reference.

Rare Branko sighting.

Andersen is class but would cost too much considering his age.

They’ve been really good and should have scored more than 1.

What a game!

Jota has to score there.

Nah, both Robertson and Anderson were claiming for pens way too enthusiastically.

Anyone claiming for a pen for those should get booked. Anderson did it yesterday too.

Anderson and Murphy as wingbacks?

Scamacca!
