No way Sherwood knows what 'mercurial' means.

WHERE'S THE THUMBS DOWN BUTTON!!!

Aye, at least Longstaff has moments of quality and works intelligently off the ball. Almiron and Willock are definitely our weakest links. Anderson and Bruno respectively for those two and we're a completely different side.

My river's dying a death can't see more than 3s before a 10s buffer >.<

Nope, he's been one of the worst-performing players on the team for the past 3 or 4 matches and still starts every game.

We need to slow this right down and play out from the back, we're just too shit with Almiron and Willock trying to break, it's embarassing. Slow it down, get Trippier swinging it in

Got given some instructions to play with rather than just run all over the shop

Looks as disinterested as Wood does

He always does 1-1 if you look at his goal highlights

Willock's terrible

Looked like Schar to me

Foundation of our possession % and ability to push up the pitch as a team

Fucking hell Almiron, even with your head up you can't beat the first man on your only foot.

Joelinton, beast mode activated

Good take from Zaha, behind the ball

He's wanking off Zaha at the moment and seems to think Trippier is shit

Oo female linesman. Nice /fastshow

Have to disagree, I think Isak is a big upgrade on Wilson. Wilson's a class poacher, but off the ball he offers little.

True!

He's going to be integral to our team for years to come, can't wait for the journey to properly get started. I'd start him on the left and Fraser on the right with Isak up the middle. If Almiron has to play, stick him in the middle with Bruno and Joelinton playing deep and he can do his headless-chicken pressing in the middle, further up the pitch and crowd out their midfield.

There's no doubting Hatem's on-the-ball talent, but he'd never fit into an Eddie Howe team because of how he sets teams up to play off the ball. You just can't have one player not doing the high press, if you do then it leaves gaps in the press to be passed through and all of a sudden you're 3v3 or 4v4 with the defence back peddling very quickly. What a player though, one of my favourites. What is it with this club and mercurial French wingers, particularly left wingers? It really is a bit odd. Ginola Robert Maxi Hatem (on the right) Not that I'm complaining, between those 4 you've got most of my top favourite 5 PL-era NUFC players

I think he's earnt a bit leeway wouldn't you say

Joelinton does the same with his long gait, starts out miles away from a player he's pressing yet somehow seems to get feet on the ball even when the player brings the ball player-side.

I think Barnes23 might be Fede
