I’ve never been more disappointed to lose a player and I remember Waddle, Beardsley and Gazza being sold.

Probably the first match this season where we’ve genuinely looked like the better team over the 90 mins. Very underwhelming in the final third though with passes going astray. Absolutely criminal going into the season with only Isak and Wilson, both injured before the end of September, one was already injured weeks before the transfer window closed. The third choice striker is in fact 4th choice at best and is a ‘project player’.

I’d leave Murphy on, I’d be tempted to take Trippier off though.

That Everton back 4!! We want to be terrorising them for 90 mins.

Thank Kevin Keegan, he’s almost single handedly responsible. A lot of games just before Keegan came in as manager were around 16k. The Bristol City game was the turning point, next season we never looked back. He built the modern version of NUFC.

5 Stoke goals in a 10-11 min spell each side of half time.

Needs to go out on loan to the Champo once we sort our shit out.

Man Utd ripe for the press, a lot of fucking around between Onana and the defenders.

Until quite recently I still thought Livramento had a a higher ceiling but I’m not so sure now. He got real class.

Hall was my MOTM but Murphy and Joelinton were excellent tucking in and supporting the FBs.

We’ve definitely got a goal in us. If we can keep a CS in the second half, big ask.

No point sweating it, we won’t know what version of NUFC will turn up until about half an hour in. Howe probably doesn’t know either, we’ll probably at least given them something to think about. I’m more concerned that the totally forseeable scenario of both Isak and Wilson being injured has occurred after 5 league games. The £15m back up striker appears to be 4th choice and would probably have been loaned out if it wasn’t for the other injuries.

Even funnier it was for kicking the ball away!!! 😃

Sixth off day in a row.

The midfield is the issue I don’t care if Howe doesn’t want a specialised CDM but one of the three CMs needs to perform the role.

Anyone checked in on the mentally deranged over at RTG? They must be suffering.

He's a warrior, silk and steel, one minute tangling with centre forwards and the next pinging 60 yard passes and stepping into midfield with the ball or getting in shooting positions. Wish he was 10 years younger, he's almost unique.

Howe needs to go back to basics with this midfield. It’s non-existent.

Carbon copy of Bournemouth away. Dogshit.

They’ve got too many average player; Solanke, Johnson to name two obvious ones.

Sick of hearing about this bloke to be honest. Whatever’s happening in the background his immediate future is totally in the hands of Eddie Howe and team. We only ‘move on’ from a disastrous summer window if the team keep winning and we can battle through to the next window largely unscathed. The alternative scenario is more scrutiny on the summer debacle following key injuries and/or a run of defeats. He’d be best advised to batten down his scran hatch for a while.

The worst player I’ve ever seen in professional football was Paul Dalglish, not sure if a single performance stood out but the lad couldn’t play for toffee.

We definitely need more ‘technical’ players, despite our press and power we often look second best on the ball. Tonali on please.

Haha just realised!!

Brighton looked the better team in the last 15 mins or so.
