Real Madrid walking through Valencia second half.

 Valencia are absolute pants - however Javi Guerra looks a talent

We're without our best defender, best midfielder and best striker(s). Man City were without Rodri for 3 games and lost all 3 of them.

 

It's fucking annoying like. Mo Salah dislocated his shoulder about 4 years ago, I swear he hasn't missed a game since.

It’s definitely a season of learning for all of us - even I’m a bit worn out and in need of a break - it’s been relentless

The experience of this season will be good for us in the long run

The whole we should have signed player in X position arguement in the summer seems a bit daft. We went into the season with two strong 11's. There's not much you can do when the first choice and their replacements are both injured/suspended. 

On top of this we just don’t have the experience of dealing with PL and CL football 

Bear in mind our cup draws have been brutal - Man C - Man U - AC Milan - PSG - Dortmund - Dortmund with Chelsea - PSG and AC Milan still to play - that takes us to the middle of December - never in my football supporting life have I come across a team with this level of a draw

If you want to unpick it...

 

Both full backs were sloppy on the ball.

There wasn't enough trust in Miley from the defence. 

The midfield were nonexistent off the ball. 

There was no focal point.

 When we did press, it looked disjointed.

 

...but clearly almost all of that has been caused by injuries and fatigue.

Yeah agree - I wonder if we could have done something else just to freshen it up - say play 3 at the back

Pope

Krafth Schar Dummett

Tino and Hall wingbacks

Trippier -  Miley - Longstaff - Ritchie 

Big Joe

Ultra defensive - Bore everyone to death for 65 mins then bring on Willock - Gordon and Miggy 

I’m clutching at straws - it is what it is - move on

Not this again. Do other PL sides rely on 2 strikers made of glass and virtually no other suitable alternative, even at youth level? 
 

Gordon was good there against Man U. But, it was Man U  really struggled there tonight and got shifted early on. Wasn’t effective against Dortmund, either. 
 

Even someone that would be more of a wide player and cover as a striker was obviously required and I think plenty banged that drum in the transfer window. Hardly surprising we’ve ended up in this position. 

 

 

 

I think the answer is we need a forward - as I mentioned the other day - the type Liverpool have with Gakpo and Jota (even Nunez) - players that you are not relying on to play just 1 position, but all 3 up top AND have the ability to play all 3 with ease 

Brilliant interview

our fans are pricks 

Think next season we will definitely be in better shape - can see us signing 3 players and bringing Minteh back 

Karius 

Tonali 

Botman 

Burn 

Targett 

Murphy

Bruno

Anderson

Barnes

Isak

Miggy

Sub - Wilson 

He’s a fantastic talent but we need to buy a hybrid midfielder so we can ease Miley in over the next few years 

So who may be back after the break?

isak

Wilson

Miggy?

Bruno

Week after 

Botman?

Barnes?

Good Lord it’s awful 

Good to see A Murphy on the bench

GDAY COBBER.

Get in Lemina you little ripper 

Strewth 

Thank you Darren Fletcher - comm curse 

Is Trippier taking these set pieces for Wolves?????

No coincidence that the best football he has played at NUFC has come under 2 top coaches - shows he’s always had talent

“Starred” is a bit of a leap mind.

He’s done well is probably more apt 

I’d prefer him to stay and get a full year loan seen as though it’s going good - then have a full pre season under how - may need another years loan if we sign a winger/forward in the summer

Howe confirming he won’t be too far away from being back after the international break.

Made similar comments about Willock and he was back after 1 week of last break?

Bench for Man U?

Could really do with Anderson making a similar recovery

Barnes could well be 3 weeks away I reckon then 

So will West Ham now have to buy their stadium outright? It was given to them for free and they make a load of money from it - they’ve been given a competitive advantage .. 

Clear handball imo 

So really it was NUFC that was robbed in the Arsenal game as Harvetz should have seen red - and this would have completely changed the dynamics of the game

Gagging for us to sign Inaki or Neco Williams and this to be our announcement video

 

 

 

 

I’d be gutted if we ever bought Neco Williams

Such a similar player - hopefully he is shown a few videos of the master - such a great player for him to learn a few things from
