  1. Played like a seasoned pro, not a 20 year old that’s just missed basically a whole season of football. Doku will go on to rinse the best right backs in the world, such a quick turn and acceleration on him but he was handled well. 

  2. Love Kovacic’s reaction to the tackle, too used to seeing players roll around to try and get players into trouble or get play stopped. 
     

    Over the moon with Gordon. I was pleased with the signing, proud that he’s now put that sour end to his time at Everton and took the challenge on to fit in with what’s required here. 

  3. When you’re in that crowd and hammering a team away, you sing it and have a class time. Most chants are fucking stupid, but they’re mint when you’re amongst your people. 

  4. Tremendous result. Sheffield United were pitiful, we were professional throughout and gave a few of the lads a breather. Only downside is Barnes, hope he isn’t out long. Must be gutted to have gone off so early and Gordon coming in and putting in a textbook wing performance. 
     

    They were really bad, but thought we offered the man in possession much better options than we have been. Can’t wait to get a few back from injury and Tonali up to speed.

  5. I don't know if its been discussed already, but did he pick up a knock at the end of the Milan game, or just cramp? Seemed to be signalling that he wanted to come off, then we brought Barnes on and he was very loose with possession.

  6. No issue with the release clause, if a club bids that then he's obviously playing in a way that benefits the team greatly. Selling allows us to strengthen, it's going to become necessary with a big player every now and again.

     

    It may well come to pass that we sell him for less than his clause, players have a lot of power.

    Probably a bit of both. I've seen footage of our fans taking over Milan, I'm guessing they probably aren't used to seeing huge crowds of chanting English fans getting pissed and sliding belly first on the streets in just a pair of shorts. For toon fans it's just a jape, but maybe it's been interpreted as aggressive over there.

     

    In the animal kingdom, taking your toon shirt off and sliding on your belly is a signal that you're going to drink a lot of beer and make love to their women.

    Is there the potential that Jude could be the best player in the world at some point in his career?


    He will undoubtedly win a ballon d’or like, he isn’t anywhere near his final form yet. 

  9. Maguire has been largely excellent for England and formed a good partnership with Stones, which people seem to forget. Out of the ones who get picked no matter what, he is the most justifiable.
