We need a gif of that first touch so we can watch it on repeat.

Better kill than Hannibal Lecter.

Had a go at it…..

Beautiful but we need an extended version that includes the finish

Tried already - way too many frames for a GIF on my free app

These are a good gif.

Genuine question and I know there is no definite measure but does Mitoma have the best first touch in world football, this is not an isolated occurrence?

My son was watching it last night in his student local in Liverpool and was telling all his Gooner and Spurs mates that Mitoma has the finest first touch of any player in the Premier League at which point they all laughed at him. Five minutes and that goal later, and they conceded he may have had a point.

He never took his eye off the ball, not once. Incredible skill.

 

[SeagullinExile]

The audible gasp from the crowd when he controls it!

I really need to watch this with Japanese commentary.

And the thing is, it’s pure skill. No hint of fortune about it, because he does it every single week. Plucking a high ball out of the air at pace is his speciality. Quite extraordinary skill

Found it…….typically understated

You see the moment where Chalobah just about shits himself in surprise.

I’m pleased the replays show the pin point kick from Verbruggen.

I reckon Saudi would have to give us a whole oil field

You never know they might have put up the dosh for the Amex monorail.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Which immediately makes you quicker off the mark than Trevoh Chalobah was last night.

Adam Webster said after the game that he didn’t think Chalobah did too much wrong. It was just Mitoma’s supreme skill that was too good.

According to my Japanese daughter in law, the commentary compares Mitoma with this guy.

I just made my other half watch it, not sure she quite understood the amazing skill involved

I told Mrs Punal to watch it. Her exclamation of “Bloody hell!” endorsed the beauty of it.

I was thinking that he may have made more physical contact with Mitoma when the ball was dropping out the sky but he does actually make contact a couple of times, but not enough to be a foul. I agree with Adam.

Assume that's where the old De Zerbi one was?

Nice, but could we have it, but with the ball on his foot?
