Smal

Wilson can go on for another few years yet if he works hard and stays professional. He's been back to his best physically recently and looked as quick as he's ever done on Thursday imo. Really pleased he's managed to play 34 games this season too - only really missed a month at the beginning of the season and then a week or so for covid before the WC. edit: honestly if we get some really quality additions in the summer he's the type of player who could hit a 30+ goal season if he stays fit and in the team.

I'm in

good thread on some Eddie genius last night

only change I’d have made a bit earlier was ASM for Isak as I thought the latter was blowing a bit and his defensive work was understandably suffering. As it were he stayed on and supplied the pass for the 4th so…

of first team quality players aye, but we are still using all 25 league registration slots and I'm not sure Krafth is even registered as one of those. There are still a lot of players in the squad to move on if we want to sign additions.

I like scousers. Thought the YNWA during the Atsu applause was a nice touch as well tbh. The song is about solidarity, it's not "making it all about them". I think if you're getting mad at that it's probably because you didn't like them in the first place.

we probably don't have to sell many who've actually featured for us tbh. I wouldn't want us selling Murphy at all yet, he's class. Dubravka, Lewis, Fraser and at least one of Krafth/Manquillo as certs to leave. That's 4, maybe 5 spaces freed up already. I think Targett will probably be off as well. Especially if we sign another left back. I wouldn't be surprised if we kept hold of Dummett but didn't register him for the league and had him as a club homegrown option in Europe. Ritchie but he will probably want to go and play somewhere. But that's 7 registration slots freed up. We aren't going to be singing more than that I don't think.

maybe I need to watch it again but I thought he was trying to play Undav offside. He probably should've seen Burn playing him on, like.

I would still really like Maddison despite his recent drop off. Howe will rejuvenate him and he'll be good for > 1 g/a per game for us. If he gets those numbers in a diabolical Leicester team then he can surely do even better for us.

yeah, both CBs were following their striker into midfield. I think Howe looked at how Man Utd stopped them for inspiration, but obviously added some top pressing into the mix too. Their goal came from us leaving a big gap there but it worked for the rest of the night, and if Burn was in line with Schar it wouldn’t have happened anyway.

huh?

no it isn’t, it’s 100% Caicedo / #25. He’s already past Estupinian. here’s another frame with his shirt number before he falls flat on his arse, bro

8 fouls, no yellows. Should have had at least two really

After tonight's game I am placing that Caicedo on fraud watch wherever he's playing next season, like. We targeted him all game and he got battered. Then he got to move into midfield and.... what on earth was he doing when Miggy got the ball for the 3rd? Just stood and plants himself into the ground very bizarrely so that Miggy can just knock it past him? Someone tell him this is how children defend

was phenomenal, wasn’t he. Definitely motm and seemed to be covering three positions all at once.

yeah, it’s not close. 18 goals is great obviously but 5 assists tells you how clinical he is in the box too.

stupid game

mad pass map. Trips deeper than Botman and Burn ahead of the whole midfield

He’s good, like. Not many have pressed Brighton and made them look like mugs. Especially from goal kicks we had them sussed. We were so good tactically. Trippier rarely went beyond halfway today for the first time all season and it was a decision that really worked.

I think Joelinton is up to 8 fouls with no yellow card now btw

I love Callum Wilson so fucking much man

Every wide delivery has been absolutely perfect.

that’s phenomenal from Botman like

Miggy’s been great

Nice try Call
