He’s started to play in recent weeks and he’s come up with a big contribution as he opened the scoring tonight:

It takes a few views to figure out if Chris Smalling should do better here, but it looks like it’s his mistake, He gets caught under the ball and fails to clear the ball. If anything he also guides it away from his teammate and into Demiral’s path.
It’s still early, but this could be pivotal in the outcome of the game.
