I thought the early flukey goal got them going. The crowd got behind them and they went for it. I noticed that about Gueye last season when I watched Villa, he never gave up. He was great for them before he got injured and still the best consistent player they had after.He was everywhere, first to every ball, pressed and was in our faces. They were a team of energy in the first half (they paid the price in the 2nd half) but he was their energy and in the 2nd half whilst his teammates levels wilted he was still working hard, impressive.
I think we may have missed one there. Yet I suppose if Pochettino can get someone who he knows and has lots of PL experience then he will.
I just thought he fitted our style and his work rate is good. Just as good a player as some of the names the were bandied about & for much less. Probably better with the ball than Wanyama tbh.
