HawK

If we can get him comfy on the right of the central defence he might be Schar's successor as I can't see us ever dropping Dan Burn for now. Or 3 centre backs ? What a nice problem to have for a change. Rewind a year and I had Burn on the bench but he's so important to us.

Eddie Howe isn't signing Rashford in a million years, free or not

He's sort of their SBR really.. if Peter Reid is Keegan

Least foreigners and least young'uns ? Double bubble eh Gammoncastle Utd.

Wherever we finish in terms of Europe, at least we've also got the Brexit Cup sewn up this season.

Don't think Liverpool will let Chelsea beat them, not the sort of result they could stomach. Random loss to a mid-table club after title confirmed, sure, but not Chelsea imo.

It's ok to disagree I've never really rated him I guess

He's had the odd good appearance from what I can remember, but absolutely nothing like his performances when on loan at us. He seems to be regressing as a footballer month by month. Am I being overly harsh? Edit : He's had a good couple of moments that I can recall, the down-the-line cross into the box from the left, the outside of the boot through ball to Isak, and taking that shot from Almiron's dribble.

The Willock effect, we gotta stop signing these loan-with-no-obligation guys....

An entirely predictable good game vs a team that won't pressure him. I love Jacob, I rate him, but let's not pretend he isn't going to be pretty ineffective at best vs the top teams as all games this season have shown. Really, really needs to work on first touch and press resistance. Most professional players when receiving a ball know which direction to control a pass to to take it to comparative safety, Jacob seems to struggle. But he's gone 30 now so asking him to improve on this might be moot. If we can adapt to his weaknesses as a team to get the best of him in those more difficult games, he's a player who can do a lot of damage with time and space on the ball. He really should not be coming short to do the overlap thing with Tripps vs top teams, let him run down the wing into space with the ball over the top or as a through ball and let Tripps stay back and quarterback. He's great at crossing, great at shooting from distance, and plays with a fantastic tempo that's often on another level to the rest of our team. When Jacob plays well, we get results.

You know you got them 'mentoring groups' in FM, first time I seen it happen in real life.. Osula joining up with Bruno and Joelinton and basically gains the personality of a combination of the two

Good effort Gordon

Osula and Miley combining, the future of NUFC

I think I really like Will Osula as a player

Sven using some of that T800 strength there, what a beast of a man.

Get Trippier off corners! Tripps assist from corner

Big Dick Burn, now Big Willy Osula Tripps chuckling as Osula does his dance

What the hell is going on, Miley and Osula on? Was it Tindall all along holding everyone back?

Aye I think that's most people's sentiments tbh. In Howe we trust.

I don't like him on the right either, I can only guess Howe wants to give Gordon every chance to find his form again in his preferred position.

Padding that 'touches in the opponent's box' stat

Murphy is a fantastic ball striker

I guess one of the silver linings in starting with Willock is he can't come off the bench instead of Miley Watch it be Longstaff...
