He's a good lad he'll be fine

Watching Bruno sprinting back is like racing your 6 yr old son who is going full guns
-
That was a good ball in from Tripps, he's been on it today.
-
Commentators.. useless by and large. Last game : Why the fk didn't they put the flag up? This game : Why the fk did they put the flag up?

Now we've got Murphy and Gordon on the break with them pushing for goals. This plays to our strengths
-
This is exactly what the team needed after 30 minutes of hard work, playing a more expansive style with a higher line. Positive reinforcement, believe in the process. Let's keep it up now.

Dang my stream is a minute behind, still waiting for the corner to be taken
-
Dan Burn setting the line in the back three
-
Isak and Gordon swapping about dynamically is good
-
What a good passage of play, players supporting each other into the box. Very good stuff.
-
Gordon back to cover LB, also not used to seeing that.
-
I'm liking Miley actually making runs from midfield, this is new.
-
Martinez with a 1-2 with Watkins in our half
-
Very evident we're trying to play further up the pitch to take the pressure off our midfield finding space in possession, letting Schar and Botman pick passes more. It suits our players much better than playing a stretched game with a deep line. At least with the players we have available.

Present-age Pirlo maybe
-
'Link-detached' is what they call them.. so not really detached, but on Rightmove you can say it is..

Could do with a title change

Good lord, some Hot Fuzz-esque analysis there
-
On a hiding to nothing that game. Prime Veira would have struggled with how Longstaff and Miley presented for the ball last night.
-
Not sure if Hall is a 'Howe' signing or a pure board signing for future ffp investment reasons. Either that or we're playing dirty with clauses on the loan agreement. There's definitely more to it than just footballing reasons. That said, I think if he'd blown everyone away like Livramento when he did have the opportunities to play, he'd be playing a lot more than he has regardless of whatever clauses there might be.

I didn't think he was very good. He's got quick feet and excellent decision making, great at passing. He needs to learn how to be available to receive the ball. Longstaff has a similar problem. When we're under a tight press, neither are available to receive the ball. It looked like Bruno vs the world last night in the midfield, it was a very difficult game for him. He just needs more games, more experience and I think at a lower level it would be easier for him to fill in this part of his game without being punished so quickly. The more he gets on the ball, the better for us because when he's got it, he's great.

Perhaps the board brought him in purely because of the financial aspects, might not be a Howe-approved one.
