Reserve Squad
Thiago, Semenyo, N'Diaye, top three. Bowen, and Trossard were close. However, the best player I've seen at the SOL this season is Xhaka

Semenyo, Rice, Bowen first half, Ndiaye and Thiago have been the most impressive to me so far.
Definitely Maybe

Timber hasn't been mentioned but thought him and Saka were excellent together, especially when they were pushing for the 2nd goal in the second half.
Bowen had a good first half against Seelt but was quiet once Alderete came on. Hard to believe Seelt played in the Premier League for us this season.

Thiago and Isaak are probably the only two forwards that have bullied our defence in recent times.Thiago, Semenyo, N'Diaye, top three. Bowen, and Trossard were close. However, the best player I've seen at the SOL this season is Xhaka
10 goals in 13 games, with all due respect for Brentford, is astonishing in the Premier.
Seelt will come good. Look at how Semenyo has developed.

I thought that first half in particular, Evanilson was very good yesterday.

Bowen was excellent in the first half against us. Shame for him that the rest of his team was crap.
Thiago always looked a threat in the Brentford game.

Agree. Great movement.

Re Trossard, Hume had him in his pocket the whole game but the one time he was up against Sadiki he showed his devastating quality if you switch off from him even for a second.
For me I'd go with;
Thiago
Rice
Semenyo - although Bowen runs him close, similar directness
Seen a few of their fans giving him stick on the socials, questioning what he offers. I thought he looked quality.
I thought he was excellent, 2nd half in particular it was like there were 2 of him, he was everywhere!

Thiago
Rice

Very very tidy ,both my son and i were impressed with him.
I thought Evanilson was class yesterday bar his finish attempt for the first and being offside for the disallowed.
In general play, he was superb. Held up the ball against 2/3 players on multiple occasions. First touch extremely good.

The Situation

First half especially, Bowen was superb in the opener.
It was obviously extremely early days but he had me thinking "fuck me, we are miles off having a player like that". He should definitely be playing for a side at the top end of the PL.
Rice is the only CM that has made Xhaka look like a human being so far this season.
Semenyo was only at about 70% yesterday and had me (and even Mukiele to be fair) shitting myself every time he got the ball.
They're probably the 3 for me, in no particular order, with an honorable mention to Ndiaye.

Aye was coming in to suggest zubimendi. Him and rice I thought were excellent.
