Shouldn’t it have been an OG anyway? Since Bruno handled it accidentally, but he wasn’t the goal scorer because deflected in off Digne.

They couldn’t get relegated I guess.

Massive credit has to go to manager and club for how they supported him and looked at the long-term. Can easily see a situation where he never plays for us again.

Isn’t his history with us mostly brilliant? I’m very confused.

How come Cunha hasn’t been banned?

Thought they brought Rogers off when he was just starting to trouble us.

Sorry?

Howe… in?

Yeah, it was a few consecutive corners rather than a long period of possession or anything.

Think today was the quietest I’ve ever heard the ground. Maybe because I was sitting further away from the corner than usual. Very long periods of complete silence.

I don’t remember any periods of domination for them. Maybe a couple of mistakes from us but we were on top throughout.

Could he get more games for that?

Feed these lads into the Newcastle mincer.

Having seen the replay once I thought the red was pretty harsh. But also looks like the deflection off Bruno was going wide so that goal should’ve been given as an OG. Anyway we played them off the park.

Aston Supervillains?

True, it’s just the most basic way to express this sentiment.

Would like to hear the 'one of our own' song before he's full bench material.

He's just returned from a long-term injury, no?

It won’t be long before he overtakes Longstaff and possibly Willock (depending on the needs of the game). He’s certainly the best direct replacement for Bruno and Tonali in terms of style.

I think part of the equation is also that Isak probably needs to develop stamina more than he needs rest. Agree that I would’ve taken Gordon off earlier but just have to trust the process I guess. From what we’ve seen I wouldn’t say Osula looks total shite. Looks quite promising to me.

Sure but it’s not a loan, he was ready to start in the PL (for a club with worse players). I don’t think us loaning players to good PL clubs is really going to be a thing.

It’s not really gambling. You’re paying for something concrete that non-members don’t have - access to tickets. Of course you can’t guarantee how many, but it’s fairly well known how likely or unlikely it is. They could equally make the ballot open to all but it would be absolute chaos of away fans and touts. If you think now is bad then try making the ballot free to enter.

Why say this?

I personally would just throw him on to rest Isak, but I understand a manager doesn’t want a player going on and practicing the wrong things, if that makes sense. He wants to bring him on when he’s clear what’s expected of him and has a decent chance of doing it.

Seems like loans are mainly used to stockpile players you really should sell.
