Been shite, we're so utterly devoid of craft without Bruno in CM.

Fair play man, Troll This is gonna be class

Do you have to pay all up front? Could be gone, last big room left on that site. I think we'll have the numbers...

Count me in. Just me.

There's a lot of smoke I'll admit but I'm simply a person of interest in most of those cases.

Right, let's fucking do this you cunts! Shout out to @Rich for giving me a nudge and telling me to get off my arse and do it. Not just the most handsome face on the forum... but the most handsome soul too.

Howay Cuba, rob a bank or some shit

I have a lush head of hair, I'll have you know.

Anyone want to split a hotel room? I'm not actually a sociopath it's just an act for the forum, I swear

Right FUCK IT I'm in for this. Gonna fly back Monday night... need to know what the plan is before. Do I fly Saturday or Sunday morning?

Have always felt that away fans should be directly behind the goal at one end of the pitch at all grounds. Be so much better for atmosphere in the sport in general.

I do wonder if Howe will be tempted to change towards more of a 4-4-2 given our lack of options in CM and the fact that Isak and Wilson starting together seems like something that would really benefit us. Gordon and Almiron on the wings, Joelinton and Longstaff in CM. Think that could be super solid defensively with Longstaff and Joelinton while that front four could do some damage.

Think Targett will get a chance as soon as he's fit enough to start. We know Howe doesn't like changing a winning team and we were just rattling off wins with Burn at LB so can't fault him for not changing. We've stagnated a bit going forward and having Burn at LB doesn't help. Think it'll be a nice way to freshen up. Think Burn is going to be a very solid squad player for several years to come. Backup for Botman at LCB who can play at LB in an emergency while being one of the squad's homegrown players. Seems a great dressing room guy too.

Too many draws, gonna have to figure it out soon if we want to keep ourselves in the top four. Gordon looked great, on the plus side. Really hope Targett is back soon, Burn stands out like a sore thumb trying to get forward at LB.

Gordon is brilliant Wilson looks wrecked.

Harrowing watching our 3 CMs attempt the passes that usually we ask Bruno to.

He just doesn't fit in our team, sadly. Really think he's trying but it's just a terrible fit.

Diving in the VAR era

Having a big lumbering CB at left back really isn't helping us.

Paqueta should drop that celebration, he's not got the athleticism for it

Aye been coming, we've been shite.

We've really let them back into this.

Will be really, really disappointed if Murphy starts ahead of ASM. Feels like ASM has been really putting the work in. Doesn't come natural to him and I think he's on borrowed time here but I just don't buy for a second that Jacob Murphy is a better option?

Much as I'd hate to disrupt such a ridiculously solid back four, I do think he could add something significant to us in terms of having a left back that can provide something of substance going forward. Given how solid he is defensively I could easily see him playing the way Burn does on left of a back three when we have the ball but giving us the option to change it up from time to time.
