Yeah, he'll be back soon enough. This international break has actually come at an ok time overall even though I despise it
-
Bassong, there’s a player you don’t hear much about in relation to NUFC these days. Glad he’s still got a positive connection to the club
-
Thanks Truss, you fucking reptile
-
Lerl, hope that happens
-
Yeah, good comments. He can be our Wilson replacement when his legs finally give way
-
I just hate momentum being broken up in the season and I’m sure it makes for worse games after the breaks. Feels like this season has barely even begun and it’ll still likely feel that way after the World Cup because of how broken up it’s been
-
Anthony Gordon gets a lot of press but this lad has better technique. Can’t wait for him to get more game time. He’s so close to breaking through into the first team now as a starter
-
Would have loved to have seen him lead us for same games in Europe. Would have felt confident against a lot of opponents based on his tactical excellence. I prefer Eddie’s style of play though and know I’ll get more enjoyment out of the way we bully opposition long-term under Howe. Would love to see Rafa back in the game though
-
He loves the game too much, I could see him taking on a championship club pushing for promotion that has some ambition. I agree that a lot of PL clubs will be wary now even though it’s not really justified
-
Those stats are rough, I’m a Willock fan but I think he needs to play in a high-possession side that moves the ball quickly so that he can make runs to get on the end of the ball. He’s not good enough with the ball at his feet to play a CM role and he’s not great at defensive work other than pressing and nipping stray balls away. If we can’t get in behind teams then he’s fairly redundant unfortunately. I still hope it can work out for him
-
Class quotes, he’s made for this club
-
Happy to be updated if he ever goes bankrupt, dies or goes to prison
-
That is immense like
-
Hehe, what kind of damage would it do to you if Brazil get dumped out pre the Semis?
-
Messi looks like he’s coming into form at just the right time. Hope he goes out on a high
-
He got a three year ban for that
-
What the fuck is that headline? I don’t read Mail articles out of principle but if the article matches that headline it’s an absolute waste of space. The lad’s been here for three games and played amazing in the Liverpool match. Honestly, how can you be in a job with takes like that
-
He can head back across goal but when have we ever seen Burn attack a header? His go-to is the loop-it-up-in-the-air header and I don’t know if I’ve ever seen him head it down at pace
-
Massively wide open, we’ll go on a great run at some point as well, don’t think it’ll take us long to click when we have ASM, Bruno, Isak and Wilson all starting
-
Botman and lascelles are our best aerial attacking threat on headers, Joelinton is alright. Apart from that, we’re relatively weak offensively in the air considering how tall our squad is
-
Burn’s our best player at moving the ball on quickly? What are you talking about? Botman is an incredibly good passer, both short and long
-
Based on what I saw of Everton the other day and their home form under the Tory I don’t think there’s any hope of them getting relegated. Think they’ll end up having a relatively comfortable season and finish 13th-14th
-
Very fair comments @CherryPie, I was dead against Fraser staying on with us last season until he started putting in outrageously high effort performances. For Eddie’s high press system I thought he could work, especially as he can actually whip a ball in but he seems to have slowed down, is picking up injuries and is not going all out like he was last season. I think it’s time for him to move on to a lower PL / upper championship side
-
“Newcastle spend lots of money but still look to the player who scores 1 in 2, despite having spent a lot of that time playing for a fucking dinosaur”

When this lad got sent off against Spurs last season and we’d just been taken over I couldn’t wait to get him out of the club. Completely changed my opinion on him since then, his attitude has been very good and he’s been one of our most consistent players since Howe came in. He’s not an amazing player due to his lack of athleticism and his dribbling quality, but his reading of the game and his passing is great and offers us something completely different from our other options
