Pre-season (2025/26) - NUFC to play Atletico Madrid in Sela Cup

@Ikonthink we'll just have to agree to disagree on Shelvey, I think he's a good player but respect your view otherwise. -

i don’t know what “do anything of sort of come out of difficult situations” means. Otherwise, he’s legitimately one of our most dynamic players - he can do things with a ball and spots runs into space which very few players can. He’s technically a very adept footballer. I wouldn’t say him going too deep is some form of character flaw, he was instructed to play there by consecutive managers. I agree that he’s not good defensively and there are times where he doesn’t chase and compete defensively as much as he should. -

To make what I think are a series of sensible observations: - we look very comfortable moving the ball side to side - full backs very involved - step down from Bruno to everyone else is very noticeable - Anderson looked good - Murphy, Fraser and trippier were poor - wood did nothing but Wilson didn’t do much more - we didn’t make too many good chances -

Then you can’t have watched much last season either, when he was consistently one of our better players. Just groupthink on here to complain about shelvey, it’s boring -

He very nearly put the ball on a plate for Wilson and has played 2/3 sumptuous passes. You’re not watching if you think he’s not done anything. -

To be fair to Murphy he put Wilson through (although it was a simple pass to make). Otherwise it’s the usual from him for me - commendable effort but nothing else -

He'd miss, like he always does. Try to be positive about the players in general but I've never worked out what about him suggests he is useful at this level. -

Murphy cannot finish like. -

Not much penetration thus far, but largely comfortable and dominant in possession. I'd only single out Fraser for a specifically poor performance (his touch was nowhere). Wood was anonymous. -

I don't love watching Matt Ritchie play at left-back in a post-Bruce reality. -
Done too - good luck!
-
I should point out that I like him and would be happy to give him more time. Just pretty obvious why there’s doubt.
-
Because he scored 2 goals in half a season starting most of that period as the only centre forward

I ordered my home shirt with Bruno off Fanatics U.K. - order to delivery took 3 days

Caused by alcoholic agents

Fuck, I thought it was suncream!

I am going to go out on a limb and say you've only become aware of the player since we were linked to him in January, and you've probably watched under an hour of footage of him playing football. You literally know fuck all about either he or his agent in reality, and you are basing your entire view on minimal journalistic and social media snippets. The reality is that you're annoyed that he's probably not signing and you're saying needlessly offensive and wild shit to get yourself over it. "The vibe they give off" ffs. There's no PC brigade, just a bunch of decent people who call out twattery and stupid behaviour because it's as unwelcome here as it is in wider society. You're also being called out because the post demonstrated the intelligence of a plant pot.

The club is so lovable again.

What a ludicrous thing to say.

Deals on alcohol

Imagine because clubs know Burnley are desperate to sell any player of value so they’ll bide their time until Burnley have to accept a lower bid. To be clear I rate him and think he’d be useful back up to wilson and wide forward option. Doesn’t massively move the needle but improves things overall.

Cool - enjoy your time on the bench

I’d happily have Reguilon here to compete with Targett and bin off dummett and Lewis.

Got my Bruno home. Cannot wait to watch younger better players run round me while I wear it
