That's on Kepa not Skipp, Kepa had two chances to prevent that goal, fudged up both (initial from Royal that he didn't hold on to and shot)

Congrats Skipp, nice way to get your first, against the Blue Scum, in front the south stand, with a banger

Agreed on Royal's weak shot that was parried. Kepa should have done better.
Then the clearance was super weak and dangerous, just a low scrape to a waiting midfielder, was that Koulibaly?
Then I think Kepa couldn't see past man-mountain Koulibaly, that fraction of a second made it a harder save.

Great goal. Thought he started shakily but grew into the game. Lot more to come from him IMO

Skippy isn't the quickest and sometimes looks half a yard off the pace , hence the yellows in the last few games but he did get better , especially after his goal and he reads and anticipates danger very well mixed with the right amount of aggression and he's neat and tidy on the ball.
Played very well today.
 
We now have some proper options in midfield, both present and in the future. Højbjerg 27, Bissouma 26, Bentancur 25, Skipp 22 and Sarr 20. Add another quality one with a bit more of a playmaker style, and we've got a really strong midfield, for any type of game.

It was Enzo Fernandes who made the clearance. He also nicked the ball from Kepa. Could have just left it, and Kepa would have picked up his own rebound.

The surprise around Skipp playing well by pundits and fans alike is a strange one. Before Bentancur came in and Skipp got injured he was first choice and doing well.

Beginning of last season he was our best player. Think it was 3 motm performances?
