What a finish

Will we finish above Newcastle? | RedCafe.net https://www.redcafe.net/threads/will-we-finish-above-newcastle.472186/page-7#post-30354119

I don't recall him ever beating his man on the outside and crossing from the byline though, that was Gillespie's signature move.

Aye but he's got a bit to go before he hits 30 odd

A modern-day Samson.

Says more about the standard where is, tbh.

Saka won the POTM, Jonny of Wolves GOTM.

15m per shot taken. Where shots taken >0, he has to be the worst striker in the history of the world

Holy mother of christ I've always said that off the ball he hides and makes an effort to not be available to receive the ball in dangerous areas, but this is surely taking the piss How can someone be so blatant at trying not to play football.

Wouldn't say no to Gallagher at all. Not in lieu of Maddison, though.

Ugh, don't like this at all. He was outstanding on the left on loan, he's looked his best on the left for us too. I know we're short in the middle and have lots out wide right now, but LM is definitely his position in my opinion.

It's too late in the afternoon for me to revisit my DST triangle from my secondary school maths lessons But if you're saying Elliott Anderson is a talented footballer, I agree wholeheartedly.

Gotta be worth a start on the left at some point soon with Maxi and Gordon's current fitness concerns, with Murphy/Almiron competing on that right side. From memory, I think all his starts have been by default than by design, i.e. to fill in for suspension, injury, cups rotation and so on, and the team's always looked a bit out of sorts as a result because of the drop off in quality from the first XI. I really want to see him with our regulars around him from the start and see how he does.

Depends on how you define 'talent', in terms of raw, unorthodox and instinctive skill and confidence, Isak is absolutely the best, followed by Maxi imo. If you open up the definition to include street-savviness, winning free kicks, ball retention, killer balls then Bruno is amazing. We've got some exceptional footballers at the club right now. What a great debate to have.

Zlatan's heir

Better ball control than Maxi

Can't go wrong with a bit of Born Slippy to get you going

His decision making is better than Maxi's, now. I couldn't imagine saying this 9 months ago, but Murphy is in and around the starting XI purely on merit, he offers so much. He's got the confidence to have a go with the ball, OK it rarely comes off, but just having that attacking mentality opens doors and draws players in and creates space for others. He gets in areas to have a shot, works tirelessly off the ball, and has genuine pace. I'm going to ruin my agreeable opening paragraph with something controversial and say that in my opinion, I think our strongest 11 doesn't feature Almiron or even Maxi right now.

From Stoke reserves to playing up front for one of the top national teams in the world. Respect.

Love me a good truppslapp.

So refreshing to have a tall player that can actually head a fucking football.

Murphy been doing what Almiron been afraid to do since November, actually making some direct runs with the ball. He's having a great game, well done lad.

Pope had that covered, great positioning

Bet Trippier loves going up against Podence, someone shorter than him
