Ferdinand? Well, I mean Murphy went from looking like he could barely keep a ball in play against Swansea to then actually playing well against top 6 opposition. It was proper odd.

Crack on then, ya lil freak

Still maintain he's been poorly managed, but that's been exacerbated by the horrific management of the squad by the club. I think back to that stretch of 6 weeks or so last Xmas where he looked really promising, like skinning KVdB and running through City's midfield, but I don't think he's played consecutive games since then. He's perhaps the biggest confidence player I've ever seen. He needs the games.

Didn't we get our money back for Hanley?

Decent on the ball. Not much of an athlete.

Very curious timing, like.

Predictable. Squad is absolutely craving some freshness, as it has been for years. Cook pass babtridge.

Twitter is a terrifying realisation of how stupid many people are, tbh (at least where NUFC is concerned).

Same old every time. People rarely see the bigger picture, unfortunately.

My first time in the stadium in a long time. We played some decent possession but we had no cutting edge at all. Good positions let down by terrible quality and/or decisions. We are what we are - a well-drilled bargain team who exist to achieve the bare minimum.

Cacapa vs. Portsmouth.

Good win, pretty awful game. Rondon showing again why having a half-decent striker (in this form, at least) is so important in this league.

They really are pathetic, man.

Rondon!

His arms move in completely different ways - 'leverage' People simply can't be this stupid.

Relentlessly thick.

Wolves were poor - they're not very good. Really don't like Nuno, mainly because stream commentators seem to be obsessed with saying his full name at every opportunity.

The Yedlin at CB decision was somewhat understandable, like - they had one of the league's quickest players leading the line and were trying to wait for a moment to counter. Lascelles doesn't have Fernandez's ability to read the game so can understand why Rafa wanted pace at the back as cover.

His best defensive instinct last season was his safe, defensive thinking. Appears to be playing with the weight of the world on him.

It's beyond a fucking joke now. Can't buy a pen.

Very poor subs and timings. Seems to have a knack for not spotting when our midfield is absolutely knackered & needs fresh legs. Wide men needed replacing about 10 mins earlier. Rondon was absolutely fine.

Which knob said this lot were the best promoted team ever? They're just average. We've just shaded it but that's not saying much. Rondon could be the difference, actually has a fairly standout attribute compared to the rest of our meek attacking options.

Rondon is good, man.

Just because you play 3 at the back that doesn't mean you're automatically being defensive

There appears to be no plan for him - it's really disappointing. He was the only midfielder to provide any cutting edge on Wednesday and is then completely dropped. Yes, he didn't light it up over the course of the game and was poor in the second half, but I'd rather have a midfielder that can provide a bit of quality once or twice in a game as opposed to Atsu who, while he looks neat in spurts, rarely does anything productive.
