    So what kicker grade would you givgi him for each half? I would say 3.5/1.5 meaning independent of halves

    2.5 and then1.5 or 2. He was aggressive, making good runs. Got 2 chances in first half, scored 1 goal.

    Huh? His tired is my all time most energetic then.

    More than just the quality and speed of his runs was that he was actively leading the line. Fearless on his dribbling today. Dropping Dahoud was absolutely necessary. The guy should play for Hamburg or some other no account, no passing BL team. He doesn't belong on this side.

    Pulisic looked good for 60 mins, fatigued after that, but it has been a long season for our lad. He had some very nice crosses today, so much for no vision and cant cross crowd.

    Anybody that thought Sancho wasn't good, I am not sure what they were looking at because he looked really really good even if just a bit green.

    Amazing what an in form Weigl brings to BVB. Good shift for Akanji, hopefully Schmelzer plays in a testimonial match or some such and then trades his boots in for a nice watch.

    Sorry for the off topic but would he be a good wild card for the England 23? I've not seen him play, so genuinely curious.

    First team players are seldom released from a club the size of Dortmund for U anything. They recalled him from the last youth World cup. If he can finish the season like this it might be possible for him to sneak into the senior side, but his youth playing days are likely over.
