He definitely is. I liked him at first but his recent comments. He wheeled out the Man U were playing long balls after that match

“At a smaller club” 😂 How pathetic is that ffs? It’s like them playing Sam Fender music as Isak arrived in the building, its so small time and classless ffs

He’s always had ongoing issues with his groin but missing an entire pre-season won’t have helped things.

Ah I see 👍 I don’t see an issue with Krafth starting one game at RB to be fair

Why would he go 5 at the back for this game tho?

Id rather Ramsey started and Joelinton came on again

Tonali back in and I’d imagine Joelinton back in too with a point to prove (particularly as his place is under threat) though I’d probably prefer Ramsay. Rest of the team the same with Ramsay, Miley and Elanga back into starting 11 v Spurs.

Such an important match this, come on lads 💪

Im enjoying Isak’s struggles but I can’t see a world where he doesn’t eventually start banging them in. I suppose the Ekitike factor (potentially upstaging him), Salah being off form, the immense pressure that’ll continue to build the longer he isn’t doing it and the fact Liverpools game isn’t designed entirely around him means he might struggle for a while yet. It definitely feels water under the bridge for me now, there is an undeniable “fuck off” when I see him on the tv but I’m glad that saga is over and that he’s no longer an nufc player. As a team the spirit and potentially our overall play could well be better in the long run.

Gordon looks like he’s staring to click, Murphy looked decent at times and a couple goals was perfect for Barnes. If Elanga can finally show show form I think we’ll really see the best of Woltemade and he’ll create chances for them too.

I love the way he’s starting to link the play together and you can see the players starting to understand how to play with him. Brilliant touches. Hes only going to get better too.

I think we’re playing well in the main but we’re dogshit in the final 3rd 😂

There’s still time for him to improve and he looks low on confidence but it’s a bad signing so far. As others have said if you drop 55m on a player you expert far more than what he’s shown so far. She just doesnt look like he can influence a match often enough, poor touch, poor deliveries. Even yesterday in the one situation he should thrive in other counter he slowed things up and checked back. However has his work cut out here at the moment.

I think his form will return but he’s definitely not the player he was a few seasons ago. I can definitely see him moving on next summer I think as we need someone who is just better on the ball, e.g an Anderson transfer. Joelinton doesn’t have the skills to help us control games enough.

I love Joelinton but moving forwards I’d prefer a player like Anderson to come into the midfield I also wonder if we’ll make any jan signings?

I think that’ll happen next summer.

Be great if he can help bring another attacker in in Jan

😂

😂 I might be down in London, just keeping the Derby in mind for that

Cheers just planning a trip down south and factoring in the Derby that weekend

Quick question, do people think the Derby is going to be moved to the Sunday from the Saturday and probs a 12pm kick off time?

Hopefully he stays longer than the others 😂In all seriousness it'll make a huge difference going into January and then crucially next summer. Club needs some stability now and with the right acquisitions next summer (or even someone this Jan if they’re available) we’re not far off becoming a seriously good team.

What’s odd about him is there’s been absolutely zero love for him towards the fans or city after leaving. It just seems like he’s wiped it from memory, shame really. It was a grim summer but the club is evolving and I’m glad he’s no longer here.

Botman to Liverpool rumours ffs? I hadn’t heard that

As I’m sure has been mentioned already Scholes talking him up as better than Rice and the best midfielder out there. The talk has started and the noise around him will get louder. We need to get him tied down to a contract asap as teams certainly will be looking at him next summer.
