SUPERTOON

Completely agree, and despite talk of spurs being all over us, their only chances came from lucky deflections. They didn’t create a clear cut chance all game.

Is he out of contract next summer ?

Fair play to him, would have been easy to sit and take the money here (sure he did that in Howe’s first season).

Howe said post match, Tonali was very emotional over it.

My favourite ever player for us.

Unless it was a ridiculous offer, then we need to keep him until January at least.

Wonder how they will address, statement or interview?

A nothing answer that one tbh, when we are so desperate for extra revenue then it should have been done by now imo.

It wasn’t the best performance by any means but a lot of positives. The biggest positive for me is that the performance and how we set up felt more deliberate. I felt you could see what we were trying to do and that hasn’t been the case at times. I mentioned in yesterday but it reminded me of the back end of Howe’s first season where we looked solid and went on a great run.

He also said Haaland was league one level, so whatever he said was shit I’d guess.

Thought we defended really well, they didn’t create anything clear cut. Lots of crosses but at no point did they cut us open. Can’t remember Pope making any big saves.

Thought Longstaff had a good game today tbh.

Tino for me

On my way back, great win, defended well. Reminded me of the type of performances under Howe when we turned the corner in his first season.

Just about to set off for this now, can’t wait. 3-1 win and forget about the window.

Of course he wants that, but he (not just him) has made it so we only have a very slim chance of achieving it.

Eh ?

Mental, again complaining about PSR then trying to do these types of deals is frustrating.

Madness if Barnes doesn’t start.

Tonali, Longstaff to come on to see out the game when we are 2-0 up.

Bailey (I know) reckons we turned down approaches for him.

Bournemouth level

Bournemouth back in it.
