Because there was no contact? He tripped over himself.

I wonder if a club has ever actually tried this.

🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Fucking hell

Is he not signing a new contract like? Or is there not even one on the table? I thought there was?

Congratulations man.

To be fair it was the broadcast match over here and I’m sure we share similar feeds across the pond which makes it the focus. I don’t think it’s some conspiracy or anything.

It’s never fucking boring supporting this club is it?

Fuck this ref man

Looked like ankle ligaments to me personally.

That doesn’t look good.

So good at commanding the box

Jesus

I like to see the players show this kind of passion like. It’s been sorely missing this season.

Deserved tbh.

That’s a perfectly good goal like.

Like it has anything to do with Ramsey man. Stop trying to scapegoat the kid.

I’d take Froggy over quite a few posters on here to be fair.

This is absolutely how Howe coaches so it makes a lot of sense to me.

Haaland gets fouled like fuck, three times in like sixty seconds, no whistle.

Do these fans boo everything?

I think this is a clear take on the situation. The Isak summer bullshit is not to be underestimated in its impact on our plans/setup/etc. I think the other big thing is that we're transitioning into a possession side and that hasn't been our identity since Howe has come in. I think part of this is because it's what Howe wants (to control games) and what the opposition is putting us into because they know we're not as effective when we have the ball a lot so they sit back and just let us continually be ineffective because they're fucking tired of getting pressed by us the past few seasons. I miss the days of the heavy press, personally (every team looked like they absolutely fucking hated playing us), but I think Howe is thinking injury austerity at this point so we don't go into CL games against Italian and German champions with teenagers in the starting lineup. (I realize we're still in a mini-injury crisis right now too)

Anyone with two eyes and a bit of anything about them should see it the same way to be fair. We're clearly in transition and it's growing pains at its most textbook definition. I see a lot of small margins that when they don't go your way in the PL you get punished. Like in the match today there was a ball that bounced just over Brunos foot by inches and they gathered possession and were in and around our box immediately. Once we're clicking and everyone is doing the job those small margin moments go our way instead. You see it constantly with the best teams; the headed ball out of the box from a corner landing at their feet, coming away with the 50/50 balls, etc. Confidence in the system breeds this. It was squeaky bum time and a lot of people were rightfully nervous in the second half but I personally love to hear Eddie talk about that being a character building moment for the lads. The guys out there know it's possible again. It wasn't pretty but it feels less far away now.

They’ve been on ignore since like day two of being on the board. Glad to hear I made the right choice nice and early.
