Comfortable win, 3 goals, clean sheet, job done today

We looked very good up front, particularly Salah and Coutinho.
Mane did OK coming back, maybe lacking a bit of sharpness, and Firmino worked hard as usual.
Thought Hendo and Gini did well enough, maybe not offering huge amount going forward, but with Cou in the middle, to get a balance onus is on those two guys to keep it relatively simple, win balls, protect the back 4 etc. There was at least one audible groan after a Hendo pass backward in the 2nd half, but am not gonna complain too much bout them two on the day.
Klavan did well, looked more composed than Dejan, and the FBs did well. Migs had very little to do.
Once Cou, Mane and Salah went off, we looked less dangerous as you'd expect. Of the 3 that came on, thought Can looked the rustiest.
We'll have sterner tests than that coming up, but well done Jürgen, very nice to see us put a little run together, long may it continue...
