Agreed on the first point. Kelly did great for the opening goal. But he doesn’t look particularly impressive on the ball.
-
Aye. Harsh sub. Should get the LW spot for now.
-
Murphy did great for the goal. And that got us the points. He was largely awful though. Super bad.
-
Lads don’t have the ability. Schar return and Tonali back will help. But Joe, Kelly, Burn aren’t possession based players in the pl
-
Aye Barnes played better.
-
Don’t know the reasons but he’s been bad. lucky to get so many minutes recently.
-
Then how do we regularly win football games? Sit deep and hit teams on the counter? Build from the back in a possession based system? Im happy we won. and the points return.
-
I don’t blame him for the goal. Not a great save in the lead up. Blocked the shot that was going wide or out and Burn blasted it into the net. Poor on the ball as usual. That’s a given.
-
Poor OG to concede. Not under a lot of pressure and had loads of space to avoid it. Then almost gave another goal away. Buck up lad.
-
Then we need another identity.
-
I don’t think he did. We rode our luck at times. Last season he played Ange. This time he was a bit Moyes-esque.
-
Spurs, Ange and their £300m spend is on fraud watch though. Very predictable in attack. Vulnerable defensively.
-
7 points is an excellent return. We’ve been bad though. Press is poor. Slow predictable subs. Men behind the ball and inshallah defending.
-
Solid. poor on the ball though.
-
The opposite for me. He’s on proper money, peak age, signed for good money - should’ve spent it on a right winger. A younger one.

There wasn’t a buyer in June. If there was - it wasn’t enough to move the needle enough for FFP.
-
I said PIF are ultimately responsible for the club. Everything good, everything bad. That’s true of all owners of football clubs. Why are PIF exempt? This idea that they just sign cheques and leave it to others is naive of how top level business is done.
-
He’s looked the same Chris Wood at times for Forest. Winning balls that go nowhere. Not holding it up. But they genuinely play to his strengths more. Obviously his confidence is up. We didn’t play to his strengths at all. I never thought Wood was a bad player. His record before and now after proves that. He’s just suited to our style and probably our club.

NUFC can buy a hotel in West London and sell it. It’s not a FFP cost and until the rule changed it counts as revenue when sold. If PIF were determined and savvy to make NUFC #1 world wide asap, they would find and exploit loopholes. They have the power to do it if the will and nous is there.
