Theregulars

Same here, my brother (34, never been to old Trafford) thinks his beloved Red Devils will walk it. Bruno “mediocre” and Howe “an overrated school teacher”.

You truly are the board’s very own analrapist, that’s fair.

I think there’s probably something in it to do with the intensity of the training and gametime, it’s quite clear that it’s the key message. You’d think if it continues much longer they’re going to need to change it. Extremely frustrating but all clubs having similar with a packed schedule I suppose.

Bigger blow than it might otherwise have been because I don’t think Dalot is up to much, would have fancied ASM. Murphy it is, got to hope he keeps it up. Would have been nice having Isak to have a go there. We’ve really got no luck with injuries this year.

Not as scary as that sentence

I’m normally pretty pro-buying shirt and having it too, but can’t get my head around that one.

People in Newcastle do, otherwise people just say Newcastle, because we’re a one-club city. So many other things to get angry about in football than this.

It’s such a non-issue. It’s just what they’re called to differentiate the fact that a big football city has two teams with that name.

Of all the teams, and of all the fixtures, this is the one I want us to win and win well.

They’re a good side but I don’t think they’re as well-drilled of confident in their true identity as we are.

Toney is such a dweeb. Never even played, such a weird chip on his shoulder. Release was best thing for his career.

Hold my hands up as I’ve given him a lot of stick - Murphy has played well and deserves that goal for his endeavour and attitude.

Sigh re: Longstaff

He was fine, no better.

No need to maintain Murphy

Maybe he arrives early for special routine. Means nothing

Really want his nickname to be Climate Change.

Yeh I voted underwhelm. Fuck

What on earth is he thinking?!

Man these militant trade unions, they hate sporting freedom

“For some reason” - he’s foreign

Not for me - sell at earliest opportunity.

Even pre season vs Bilbao Ritchie played a lovely through ball for Wilson’s goal

What makes Murphy better than Ritchie? Which facet of his game do you think makes him a preferable option? Is it the never finishing a chance, constantly hitting the first man or being knocked off the ball easier than a wet towel?
