Football

Great atmosphere last night, never really got going in an attacking sense, seemed comfortable enough without really troubling the anderlecht keeper, but we were always probing and looking for the pass to make it difficult for them.
Kane's strike was clean as could be, everything in the first half was going through Eriksen out on the left, even though he would move towards the middle, leaving Lamela a forlorn looking figure on the other side. Trippier hasn't done enough to challenge Walker for a first team spot, let the winger on his side have a lot of space and time.
Dele Alli looked knackered, but maybe like Waddle that's how he always looks, he made some great runs, just let down by his final pass, and/or control. Mason looked off the pace, but he kept trying to be positive, Dier was really really comfortable, even looking to break forward in the 2nd half.
Anderlecht scored after a bit of pressure, but it felt like it came out of the blue. One ball over the top, and bang, stadium deflated.
Dembele's strike to win it was great, I'd been talking before how he was all left foot, and then he cracks one in from the edge of the box with his right foot.

We still don't create enough chances when we have the ascendancy, and when we do create a chance we aren't clinical enough. Son's return was welcome, injects some pace up front where Kane, Lamela and Eriksen will run all day, but don't have the turn of pace to split a defence.

Overall happy with the result, felt like the players were trying to keep something in reserve for the derby, so now roll on Sunday...
