Review
After the horrendous 4-0 defeat to Leicester in the first meeting this season, we turned it around in style. The team is really gelling now and Morgan Gibbs-White set up both goals with amazing skill, strength and determination. Brennan Johnson took them both well, and we're now up to 13th in the league with daylight between us and the relegation zone
