Mentioned this in another thread, but the more I watch it the more I think it needs a dedicated thread of appreciation.
Watch the absolutely mouth-watering flick from Nunez to Egeli at 4m10s in this:
The understanding and execution between limited-English Nunez and 19 year old Norwegian in that moment is way up on my list of the best things I've ever seen in football.
Nunez's glance up as the ball comes to him, Egeli shifting his weight inside (no idea whether he gave the call or Nunez just read it), two Sturk defenders left for dead and that cushioned flick into space...
...absolutely gorgeous and bodes very well for our creative future I think.
They had some really nice play between them in the first half, seem to have a real understanding of eachother. Obviously shared a celebration on Saturday too so obviously getting along well.
Nunez has done very well in that 10 role considering its not his natural position. Still feel we'd get more out of him playing as an 8 though which a more natural 10 in-front of him (which we havent really got that suits us yet).
