Where is this coming from?

I remember 6-7 years ago Lookman played against Manchester City, it was maybe his first PL-game ever(or among first ones) for Everton, and he was wonderful, Everton won 4-0. Then it didn't really work out for him at Leipzig and wherever he was, but good to see him thriving.

proper manager nurturing him

yep, Alonso pulled a Pep

never play tinkerman tunes in a final

I was going to say exactly that. He overthought the decision, which could cost them the perfect season.

I'm not sure if you're talking about my feeling of an EPL return or his fine form since joining Atalanta.

If it's the latter, the move to Atalanta has seen him flourish (perfect environment) and go from strength to strength. It's also translated on the INT stage; arguably Nigeria's best attacker at this year's AFCON.

Zappa another EL. 

[Vesper 29,171]

almost 3 nil

[Vesper 29,171]

abolutely no one of threat in the box for Leverkusen

ofttimes a lone small winger/wingback, and sometimes not even that

First 🙂

I looked for it but doesn’t seem all but done.

[Vesper 29,171]

well, time to see if Alonso is truly a wonder manager

no way is this game over at all

[Vesper 29,171]

btw, Atalanta are doing this withought their best defender

Ah, okay. It's just a hunch I have. Him being HG is another big plus for potential suitors over here. 

[Vesper 29,171]

Mario Pasalic may be coming on

another ex Chels

[Vesper 29,171]

yep, Mario on

[Vesper 29,171]

defensive move

[Vesper 29,171]

big chance there but Frimpong skied it

[Vesper 29,171]

Scalvini is a beast, and only 20yo

[Vesper 29,171]

looks like a young Giorgio Chiellini
