  1. 70m we spent on Vlachadimos? That sounds like a load of bollocks to me like, sorry. Also, £15m for a young striker who he believes has the talent to develop into a more regular starter isn't all that bad to be fair. Lewis Hall cost more and he's developed him well - he's been our best player this season.
  2. Well...last season we scored the most goals we've ever scored in the PL if memory serves me right. So equating it to 6-8months seems a bit excessive. Especially when for around 2-3months we weren't playing competitive football. The performances haven't been great, for the most part. Ironically, we picked up less points in games we played better in. But I don't think we're incapable of scoring again or winning games or performing. Given Howe's history here, I have little reason to believe he cannot reinvigorate this squad, albeit, both he and the players currently seem somewhat downtrodden. For me the key thing missing is confidence and belief. We've lost our "being bastards" and intensity is no longer our identity. It has been criticised since for perhaps burning players out but if that is how we find success then we should quickly get back to it.
  3. Blocked. See ya. I too want to see this list.
  4. And he's done a good job here. We're only 4 points off second and in another cup quarter final. Does that mean if we beat Liverpool he's the best thing since sliced bread again? I think the owners will be getting twitchy and arguably, rightly so. But he deserves our support as supporters of NUFC.
  5. Pretty terrible today tbh. I'm still backing him. I think we owe it to him to back him too, personally.
  6. Absolute man mountain.

  8. Gabby Agbonlahor suggesting the display is "Nonsense" and we need to chill.... So, here it is - Home Record Under Eddie Howe: Played: 73 Won: 42 Drawn: 18 Lost: 13 Win Percentage: 57.5% Lose Percentage: 18.0% Chill my arse. Irrelevant tosspot.
  9. Just need more concrete information now rather than this drip fed PR spin we're receiving.
  10. We have contact with folk at the club and we will be expressing our feelings about any move and any considerations that come with it but I personally think it'd need us to do some more "Trust-like" work or simply have them on board to do the data collection/validation of what folk actually want so that it wasn't just us saying "we want this" and comes from a more unified and greater voice. I do feel we may be able to influence some lower level discussion but ultimately they will do as they please (the club). I'm not overly keen on the notion that we hold more importance than other fans though. I guess that's each to their own opinion wise. Perhaps I'm being modest? I don't know. We spend a lot of time doing these things but really we're just supporters, supporting.
  11. Think Kelly just had a particularly bad game and hasn't really spent all that much time in our back 4 yet in terms of game time. Neither are prime Maldini but both cam do a decent job most games. Dan Burns leadership was missed though. I was just working my ticket with the afore-quoted post tbh.

    I don't see why not. So I'll nail my colours to the mast. Yes.

    Really? Last time I checked we're a win away from 6th and potentially only 2 points behind Man City.
  14. The changes just did not help us tonight and at 1 down they took more foothold in a game where we looked like we'd certainly equalise. They got their changes right tactically and grabbed a second and saw out the game well. You win some, you lose some tactically. Thought our issue first half was more around individual performances and in the second half resulted in desperation tactically/with subs. Not a good showing overall. Glad they received the support they did at the end of the game though.
  15. The coach should find a winning combination, primarily.

    We missed them for their leadership. I didn't say it would necessarily have changed the result.

    First half he was our best player. Shouldn't have started out on the right but did a decent job and likewise did similar on the left. I though Bruno was fairly anonymous, Gordon wasn't his usual influential self and Willock just had a bad day at the office. Kelly lost his man for the first and then we were on the back foot with no real leaders. Missed Dan Burn and Trippier for that.
  18. I don't know if I'm missing something. Do people think the 11 best players should always play? Or the 1 best team - cause presently we dont have both...
