Brighton at home for me, somehow still can't be forgotten. They were playing out the back and Joelinton and Willock were just pouncing on them....fucking loved that. We were in their faces aggresively from minute 1.

Joelinton, Kelly.

Yes! Will be a test but nothing we aren't capable of.

i still think when we are fully fit and firing with 1 match a week, we're going to absolutely fuck people up. Just imagine the 4th team + Sandro, Gordon and Isak. Willock fully fit. Fucking hell we will blow some teams away in 15 mins.

In every scenario Parish has stupidly played this out. Even if this deal eventually happens, these guys have lost 2 matches and the momentum from last season, even with selling Olise is well and truly off.

Completely taking a step back 1) yes, wish we had him. He'd push Murphy as the starter and eventually displace him (with current squad). 2) it would be the end of Mig. i think Minteh has 90 mins of pressing in him so the energy stays on. 3) there is NO WORLD where we keep him. No saleable asset of the squad other than the jewels being solld that would have solved our issues. (Do we ever really want to sell Bruno, Gordon, isak or JL?) 4) No combo of Trips, Mig, Wilson, Or Longie probably ever happens or it would have; IMHO. We probably tried. However, those gusy are complicated deals to do and our club hierarchy will never push a top pro out. Maybe Mitchell will? 5) ^^^ Maybe other clubs do #4, but I'm glad we don't or haven't yet. I'll happily treat our guys who have given their all for mutiple years, under shit manager and unrest, played hurt. The human side is what makes NUFC the club we all still love because during those dark days, it was and could have been very easy to walk away, but we didn't...why? Well, very easy to work that out. I wish Minteh all the best, and will be happy to say that we basically discovered him and if he goes on to be a world class talent, then that's all on him and the opportunities he took for himself.

anything else he say?

My fucking guy right here. Let’s go

Bet he's hyped to unleash Sandro. Been said the coaching team + analysts have been working on various areas of his game to improve him; he's been training, learning the systems and tactics...shit, after that Villa match, Howe, the emotionless press conference guy, said he fell in love with Sandro when he watched him play for Milan.

I'd argue Martinez shoving Califiori was more violent than Schar's "head butt"

If Howe is fixated on a player, I'm certain the player is worth it. My ONLY issue is I don't want to give Palace our money because, fuck them.

Martinelli blows hot and cold

Odey come on !

Dalot is going to generally get the better of most right wingers in the league.

Brighton may have a had a good window but the manager would need to outdo De Zerbi and Potter.

I still think he’d bang in 10+ goals as a right sided winger / forward who was combining with isak, Bruno, Tonali etc and getting in on the end of balls over the top and through. As much as he may prefer the left side he may need to reinvent himself a bit.

I actually genuinely love Longie but think the major issue with him is he’s usually only his best with Bruno and when he’s playing in his 8 role. He’s quite poor as the 6 under Howe. We are better off with getting a backup 6 and using Miley to play backup.

How the fuck were we meant to sell him in Jan when we literally were 60% injured? Whatever we did or didn’t do in January is irrelevant, we finished 7th and would have had Europe if not for city giving away a cup final to the worst man united side in ages.

yep. My major issue in letting trips go and with tino starting is we lose a hell of a lot of our ball playing and chance creation

I genuinely feel sad for him every time I see him. It’s so weird I feel this way.

And then you’ve got grown adults in the studio, podcasts, social media and message boards saying “well thems the rules” and just either blindly defend it or go back to blaming the player for knowing better. The common sense thing to do is sort the fucking rule out and call it out for what it is, stupid.

I’ve honestly not got my head around and maybe won’t ever, the complete fall from being our visible leader on and off pitch to where this is likely end up.

Only benefit of a loan is he won’t play against us

Fine with it provided we get a proper fee. No thanks if not. I still think he’s our best fullback.

You’d be spending 50-60m on the same version of Botman we bought. Just look at the price of Yoro.
