Pickford-5: Guess who's back, back again, Pickford's back, bad again. His kicking was atrocious, the first goal he's off his line so far he's nearly slide tackling DCL and he looked so shaky once again

Coleman-8: Defensively superb once again, bit better going forward, had the beating of Gibbs and didn't do much wrong aside from controlling the ball at times was off

Mina-6: Oh god did he remind me of Funes Mori today, didn't jump for the free kick, for some reason and then starts doing stepovers by our box, for some reason, and backed off for the first goal like the ball was on fire

Keane-8: Much more assured, got a goal and never put a foot wrong, really impressive this season thus far

Digne-8: Some good deliveries and his relationship with Rodríguez is looking really exciting, reliable as usual

Doucoure-6.5: Didn't do much wrong, wish he would've got forward more, he was playing the number 6 role and Allan was further forward

Allan-7.5: Played further forward today which was odd, bit too fat forward for the first goal but other than that did well controlling the game

Gomes-7: General solid game from him today

James-10: Yeah he was great wasn't he, goal and assist and created so much today, always looks threatening whenever he gets the ball, a very special player

Richarlison-6.5: Worked hard and should've scored, would've liked to have seen more of him

DCL-10: Hattrick and overall play was great, he's improving every game and I'm really happy for him

Sigurdsson-6: Did his usual

Iwobi-6: Same as Sigurdsson tbh

Kean-6: Some threatening runs but couldn't do much

Happy with the win of course, we started off way too slow but never let our heads drop, let's keep this momentum going.

Richarlison should do more, yes Pickford bad again.

I will agree with pickfords score but I won't blame him for the 2 goals as the first one Mina gave the guy so much space by back tracking it was unreal then as you pointed out for a guy who's nearly 6,5 to not jump is shocking mina for me today gets a 3.

{Ed025's Note - i will blame pikford BMD, poor positioning for both goals in my book, i agree on mina though mate although you are very generous giving him a 3..

Need a change on our right and for the life of me I cannot think how we can change it. WBA attacked us down our right all game and they had a lot of success. With Rodrigues tendency to come inside (superb once again by the way) it leaves Coleman exposed. As for Pickford, deary me! Mina needs a good talking to as well. Quandry with Allan, led well against Spurs because he was deeper, today further forward he was not able to influence our defence as much. As I say a quandry and no doubt Carlo will sort it. Can't argue two games two wins good plus 4.

need our young CB's back, Mina is not answer. Think Pickford needs a game off to see if he can get is head more consistent. I think you are too hard on Richarlison. He was in the mix and part of three goals. Could have had a few this week just like last. No disrespect to DCL but Richarlison will score a load this season.

Big Bald Blue.

I thought Pickford was awful.
It seems like he's full of confidence when a player is in the box taking a shot, and you believe that Pickford has a great chance of making an excellent save. But the moment a shot comes from distance you just know he's going to let it in. If he thinks about a shot, we're doomed. If it's an instant reflex save then he's excellent. Baffles out of me.
Great to see that were so dangerous going forward now though. And is that DCLs first senior hat trick? Little lucky with his third but still excellent work to be getting into those positions now to take advantage of the luck. Top scorer candidate this year for sure! Very glad i got on him at 66-1 for a cheeky punt.

Pickford is basically 2010-11 Tim Howard

No longer at his best but not quite at his star jumping worst just yet

I hope the Pickford issue is addressed soon because he terrifies me, it’s all well and good making wonder saves for the cameras but when it comes down to the basics of goalkeeping he just can’t do it

Reminds me of another short overrated goalkeeper in the league who just so happens to play for Spurs.

{Ed025's Note - hes awful swan, him and mina are the weak links mate..

Always quick to moan! We’ve won 2 out of 2 league games plus gone through in the cup. All players are not going to be perfect every week! I for one am a happy supporter and very pleased with how things are going. I can accept the odd bad performance for the odd player and won’t get on their back for it!

Ed025, are my eyes deceiving me or did Swan actually give a 10 out of 10 there? haha I agree with most of them scores mate but I think maybe a bit harsh on Richarlison, for me he worked hard all game, didn't go to ground as much as he has in the past, linked the play pretty well. He might not be scoring the goals right now but at least he is setting up others. The best thing about it is that we know he has goals in him, hopefully he will take the mantle when others are firing blanks so we will always have a threat going forwards. Few sloppy performances (JP, Mina) but it's two games in and we have a + goal difference! Liking this new era, long may it continue!

{Ed025's Note - i agree BP richie is working hard and has been a bit unlucky in front of goal, im really enjoying it at the moment mate...and long may it continue..
