Who’s worse?

Said this for a while now, he’s the worst rb in the premier league.

Well done Krafth. The guy is absolutely pathetic.

We already lost our best 3 players, reckon I could cope with losing any of them at this point . Probably only Wood who doesn’t have a direct replacement currently.

If they hated us before

A very able deputy to Trippier. Very happy if true.

Any news on Manquilo? Seems to have gone quiet, hoping that means it’s nothing too serious.

Not at all. He was very poor positionally, on and off the ball. Made a series of errors that lead to their goal (thankfully disallowed) and offered precious little in the final third. It’s not bias, it’s a view I have based on watching him play. I’m sure he’s a lovely lad.

Worst player on the field yesterday.

I really hope so. If anyone has noticed, I really despise Krafth as a player .

Krafth is honestly the worst senior right-back in the league. Unfathomably terrible at most things needed for that position. He’s genuinely hopeless and negatively impacts us all across the field.

Sickener if true *sigh*. Manquilo also being out as well is such an NUFC thing to happen. I can’t stand Krafth as a player in a back 4. Legitimately the anti-Trippier in that he makes the entire team worse off.

Fuck yeahhhhhhh

Absolute miracle if we get 3 points here like.

Lost as soon as Krafth came on.

Krafth. He’s despicable. I hate him.

We’re losing this with Krafth on. He’s that bad.

Krafth. Yikes.

I think injuries (or avoiding them) will be key going forward. It’s incredible how 1 win can change your outlook but while we’re still 1 set of poor results away from being dragged back in, I think anything less than a 4 is a bit bullish at this point. I’m at a 5 currently. Each win will obviously knock progressively more off my number.

Yup. Need to be at least 4 points ahead of 18th before the Burnley match, or it’ll be an excruciating watch.

Coutinho was the only one of those big-money mercenaries that I was hoping we’d get tbh. Must admit I’m surprised as to how quickly he’s shown his class, would have thought he’d take a while to find his form again.

Noticed that too. He was also the first person that Lascelles ran to when he forced that Everton OG. Think with him in the back 4 it gives Lascelles a bit of guidance, composure and improved positional awareness that he’s been lacking since Lejeune partnered him.

Alex Neil is actually a decent coach, especially for that level.

I’m in two minds about his team selections for this game. On the one hand it seems harsh (and possibly detrimental to team harmony) to drop players from a team that’s won 2 games on the bounce. On the other, I don’t agree with waiting until a player fucks up to replace them in the team when seemingly superior options are available. It’s a tricky one; just have to hope Bruno has a few storming training sessions to justify dropping one of Shelvey or Willock.

Had the misfortune of seeing him in a Newcastle hotel lobby a few years ago; was kicking off because they told him he couldn’t park his Mercedes literally right in front of the entrance doors. Could be a nice lad otherwise but came across as an arrogant prick.
