Very, I think. Loves a diagonal/first time pass. Way better in a 3 though.

Been much the better team this half, tbf. Deserved goal.

Good read. My only ambition for NUFC these days is to have a manager like him one day. Someone with a clear philosophy on how football should be played and how a club should be ran. Benítez was the closest we’ve been; Bruce is about the furthest possible from it.

On the contrary I think he’d benefit from playing higher up the field and not being the only creative outlet in an XI. I can’t think of many players better in a 1v1 scenario in world football right now.

How much did PL clubs spend in the transfer window? £1,200,000,000? And now they're happy pushing this forward at the expense of fans? Honestly, just burn the whole thing down.

Wales are very bad at defending.

There are some really good players in this England side, mind. Difficult for them when none of them have ever played with each other. I think Phillips could be an important player in the future.

Absolutely revolting back three, like

Bordeaux is an absolutely beautiful place as well. Hope he does well

Wouldn’t go as far as saying he had a good game like, but he was definitely better. Still looked completely unable to deliver goals/assists.

Saying he’s inconsistent is a bit weird. I’m honestly surprised when he doesn’t play like today... you just kind of expect this from him now. Hope he can stay fit.

In the championship. yeap.

Missed the middle line out of your haiku.

Hayden just passing it to their GK

Where would he be without ASM?

Absolutely pointless player.

Burnley are still absolutely horrible so I’m gonna say it’s us playing worse.

This is gonna be like the West Ham game where the opposition are so shit that we look good, isn’t it?

Joelinton starting to look like a footballer. As I type this he gets put through on goal and cacks himself ofc.

Can’t wait for Shelvey to miss so they can shush him.

I know the lack of tactics make everyone look worse, but I think Longstaff might actually be pretty bad.

Because he’s not very good

Honestly. If we’re going to boot if forward to the big guy, at least do it quickly and get players forward to support. We’re so fucking slow with the ball man . No attacking shape.

The good old 3-2-3-2 formation from Chelsea...

Think he’d just shifted his weight to go the other way and Mount caught him by surprise.
