Aye, no brainer. He's a big upgrade on what we had.

Came to post the same thing. Canny disconcerting.

I miss Gordon

I'm from Newcastle you plastic Irish ballbag. Which part of Manchester are you from?

I think he looks excellent. Always wanting to attack and take a man on, we've missed that for a while. If he can stay fit I think he'll be instrumental in keeping us up. Hopefully in time he'll develop a bit better understanding with joelinton too.

Only a couple more losses until Froggy discovers he had a great grandfather from Liverpool.

Man Utd are absolute gash though which has been nice.

Yes but do your managers have tits? Andy Reid has some fucking hooters, tbf to him. Least he's not on your family tree I suppose.

Us, Norwich and Watford I reckon. I just don't see where the goals are going to come from with our squad.

The guy is ridiculous. Doesn't mix in a range of passes whatsoever. Whenever he gets it in space he is looking to play someone in from 50 yards every time. Hinders the team from getting any type of possession play that works the ball up the pitch methodically. Now, the question is why is he doing that every time? Could it be an instruction from the manager? It's likely right? And so how terrifying and clueless is that from Bruce?! We were saying the same thing about him under Rafa so no.

Been ages since we've had a player who can beat a man and drive us forward. HBA was probably the last one we had.

Wish we had a player called Bong.

Commentator bloke just made the point that there seems to be a lot of discussion on the pitch amongst our players over who should be doing what.

Not bad considering. Wish Shelvey would fuck off though.

Dubravka, Manquillo, Lascelles, Schar, Dummett, Atsu, Hayden, Shelvey, Willems, Almiron, Joelinton. Subs: Darlow, Ki, Carroll, Saint-Maximin, Muto, Krafth, Fernandez

Pile on 1-1.

Cheer up lads, only a couple of month until we get our biannual takeover excitement.

Us mind numbing our way through 90 minutes of shite at st james’ while all the fun and excitement is happening to another team somewhere else does remind me of our normal cup final days tbf.

They need the room in the treatment shed.

tl:dr - Couple of guys watched the match on an ipad in the van. HTT wasn't bothered.

I think Krafth will be decent when it's all said and done. I like his energy and desire. Just needs to temper things a bit, very different league to what he has come from. KaKa out matchday fishing again. It's way too early. And this is one game against a top team with very difficult players on that side man. We'll see. Weren't you one of those writing off Willems as fat and slow after Arsenal. Just give it a rest. Your type are never right about half of your claims every player is rubbish. To early for what? For how many games have you seen him play? Krafth isn’t good enough for the Premier League. I've seen him play three premier league games. Same as everyone else. I’ve seen him play for Östers IF, Helsingborg, Bologna, Amiens and the Swedish national team. From what I have seen and know about Krafth he’s not good enough for Nufc. Okay, well we'll all get to see how he pans out actually playing in the premier league. He's making mistakes at the moment, but I don't see a complete disaster at all. I like his energy and desire. Just my opinion. Could have certainly done without being thrown straight into the team so early too, especially with Manquillo available. No idea what that's about. Thing is, Kaka, i'd have bags of energy and desire if I was playing for NUFC but I still wouldn't pick myself as first choice right back. Energy and desire need to be allied with quality and talent otherwise you're basically looking at Carver's 'run faster, jump higher' bollocks.

Fucks sake, what was that?

Joelinton should nip out for a deckchair at half time.
