  1. Get the feeling with Ronaldo that he just doesn't quite understand why what he did 5-10 years ago is beyond him now. Almost like he think he's impervious to age or something.
  2. Haaland is flipping ridiculous, he's like Conan the Barbarian with elite speed and finishing ability
  3. "Him with the man bun waving at our fans. I hope he gets nits."
  4. He was brilliant just there on their 3rd goal. They'll win plenty of home games and have no bother staying up like. Palace on the other hand look poor, can't believe we didn't beat them
  5. He basically willed it into existence the stupid cunt. He was fucking average for City last year, when he even played. The absolute last person who should have been making fun of anyone, let alone a much-loved player giving his all for us every week, when he did fuck all except collect a title winner medal after contributing so little. Grealish is an abomination of a bloke like, in all aspects, personality, ability, utter creep and not even worth half what they paid for him.
  6. Everton 3-0, Palace have been shit
  7. Grealish 100m worth of overrated, step-over, piss-head, alice band wearing garbage
  8. Gordon absolutely leveled by Zaha, well done lad
  9. Glad Forest won but something cringeworthy about Lingard dancing around the pitch, cunt hasn't done a damn thing since he signed
  10. It's on YT, I forget if it's the NUFC made video or the one from NBC but it's definitely in one of them
  11. No revisionism from me. I always liked his character and personality and thought he would function well as a hard worker, pressing from the front, but ultimately too one-footed and erratic to really succeed. What did I know? A bit of proper coaching and confidence and, although he'll always be a bit one-footed, he's been outstanding and developed a brilliant relationship with Bruno and others. Love the lad, huge part of what we're doing this season.
  12. No you're on the money, it was a transitional play, more just a general point that we do have that creativity
  13. While I generally agree with that, and that we're just starting to really improve on that aspect of our team play, it's worth recalling that if Bruno knocks that chance in the bottom corner (or dummies it to Jow, who finishes), we're talking about one of the great team goals in the club's history.
  14. Funny that isn't it? Almost like being properly coached gives you a huge advantage or something
  15. "Come with us on our journey to the pinnacle of the European game". Gold
  16. What an embarrassing failure Gerrard has been. Could argue he was hamstrung by injuries a little this year, but the complete lack of anything resembling a game plan or any resilience at all from those players, just proves he has no coaching ability and they're not playing for him at all. Only one way this goes.
  17. That was probably the only game where EH got it tactically completely wrong. Either that, or the players simply failed on the day to execute his actual plan. It's only a few months ago but already light years from where we are now with our preparation, fitness and team organization/harmony.
  18. He's class like, from a bygone era really. Reminds me of Saint and Greavsie, Midweek Sports Special and the late 80s
  19. 12m, fuck me. One of our best ever signings quite honestly. Pound for pound, maybe only Rob Lee (for 750k in 92 ) beats him off the top of my head. Edit to add - Beardsley for 1.5m in 93 would be up there. That's the trouble with statements like that, there's actually loads of great buys down the years. David Kelly for about 250k in 91ish would certainly quality
  20. Aye, only emphasizes the point, though Spurs will severely test us this week like. Amazing what EH has done with coaching and adding Botman and Tripps to that back 4
  21. 9 goals conceded in 11 games is absolutely outrageous like
  22. Imagine them if they hadn't made 37 signings
  23. That's a fair point, just doesn't feel right that a team can scrape out of league one and immediately threaten a consecutive promotion, despite playing garbage stuff in a moribund stadium and I would never want to be in it again
