  1. Find it incredible that a question about contracts (Gordons) leads to Isak's contract, Howe answers saying he isn't directly involved in contracts and that's handled by other individuals at the club, he mentions Alex currently has a long term deal and is one of the highest paid currently. Somehow the press manipulate that into a new story about Arsenal are now on high alert, Isak wants champions league football, and contract talks have stalled at Newcastle. I need to start watching other managers press conferences, because I'll bet my house, none are as ridiculous as ours, it's like they can't just ask about the forthcoming fixture, it's always got to be some dumb ass questions, and something that they can make into a drama.
  2. Abdul Fatawu Rw solved 👌
  3. Barca and Man City were both next level, superb to watch. Stand outs, obvious, Savinho and Yamal, both have insane technique
  4. I'm sure this was our best start to a season in like 29yrs after four games. So obviously Howe is doing something right, the football and what the players are showing us on the pitch so far this season doesn't represent what Eddie Howe pushed for in his first 18 months, I think if he had a fully fit squad, and there was absolutely no influence from above, you'd likely see Livramento and Hall both dropped, his favoured back four would be Trippier Shar Botman Burn. I just feel he's now being told what to do with players especially ones aging, as those above him look to phase aging players out, Miggy, Trippier, Wilson, perhaps if we had more CB cover Burn might find himself in the firing line. Obviously this approach is sensible long term, but those managers that have a trusted system and trust senior players more, don't always like influence from those above.
  5. Naa he's just too afraid to upset Gordon. You could see the benefit when we used to rotate Isak and Wilson a few seasons back, with Gordon and Barnes Howe seems reluctant, forcing us to use weaker players, with a right side of Murphy and the current Livramento form, it's easy to play against, teams will know we only carry a threat on one side of the pitch.
  6. Just seen this guy, Nestory Irankunda! Probably everyone already knows about him, What got me though was this tweet highlight reel, Reminds me of Oba Martins, Pace, rocket of a shot, the backflips, and he looks about 26 but he's 18?

    England

    Pickford man, what a tosser, acting like he's an outfield player, he moves totally weird. Idiot!

    England

    Pickford is dog shit. And that Rico Lewis ain't a defender
  9. Properly shite trim. Looks like something out of the Argentina school of hair, all those guys have ridiculous cuts. Reference Martinez
  10. I always like what I can't have
  11. Just felt today taking Barnes off was a weird decision.
  12. Adama Traore is terrible. Him, Werner, Mudryk, all the same types, drive you mad.
  13. Pish Two teams going at it, neither with a goal threat.
  14. I think it will be interesting to see how well Guehi does for Palace without Andersen, sometimes it's who you're paired with and how you manage each other what helps you stand out.

    Anthony Gordon

    Was thinking exactly the same. Willing him to score and light that kids smile.
  16. Literally just played it safe, but created nothing. The fullbacks offer nothing in attacks, and the wingers cut inside near enough everytime, must be a nightmare for a striker taking up the penalty area.
  17. Possible cold night, big players rested, weaker opposition, lots there but not interested, most of them spend the whole game on their phones whenever I'm there.
  18. I've been frustrated by Tino, watch him make multiple overlaps, multiple good attacking areas to cross, he rarely does so, always looks to another player to provide, it's bizarre, because I know he's got it in him.
  19. Yeah totally odd, when a young one like Sanusi would have loved a little chance.
  20. Liked how you picked out the draw and loss in their last 9. The rest bare in mind are all wins Unbeaten in their last 6 with 5 wins, let's ignore that part though? I do understand we are heavy favourites, but there's no denying they're in a bit of form.
