  1. Those bairns are having Kenedy's life there for overhitting that cross. I wonder how he will recover.
  2. Total football time now with Perez, Kenedy & Fernandez taking to the field.
  3. Rafa looking right at home in his smart/casual blazer jacket. You don't get those kinds of observations on nufc tv. On another note, Gayle is running through the sprinklers like a 3 year old in the back garden. Fair play.
  4. Trouble brewing between Haidara and one of their lads, Lascelles stepping in.
  5. Just noticed Antwerp have Jonathan Pitroipa - formlerly a key player for Hamburg & Rennes. Pretty sure we were linked with him countless times during his younger years. Shite now ofc.
  6. Perhaps Jose has a point with his 'heritage' rant
  7. Barcelona, Bayern, Juve & Liverpool into the semis imo.
  8. He's been pretty good in a back 3 to be fair to him. Got it, he's more of a fullback, traditionally but plays in the back 3. Aye played well last match. --- More broadly you could probably put a rolling paper between Tarkowski, Mawson and Lascelles this season and all will probably struggle more not playing in a defence focused side. Agreed. Out of curiosity, do you consider Maguire to be better or worse than that group then?
  9. Looking at the likes of Livermore & Cook, you can't blame someone for wondering why the far more talented Shelvey isn't in there, but it's all a bit meh really isn't it. Southgate probably has a defensive approach in mind and doesn't see Shelvey as someone who fits that as well as Cook for instance (although I disagree). It's good to see Tarkowski in though, could have just as easily have been our captain but either way it's good to see a lesser known lad who hasn't been involved in past England setups included
  10. Can't say I'm too fussed about it personally, I haven't genuinely supported England since I was a kid. They're just boring. Don't suppose Jamaal is overly worried about it either, he seems to the type of character that would be fired up by being left out.
  11. Tough to agree with what looks like wild, aimless swinging of batons towards no specific target. Just looking at the video anyway.
  12. I reckon if we brought in anyone who is worse than Dummett defensively, we would miss him straight away and he would be back in the 11 pretty quickly. Can't help but feel we'd have to spend an amount we won't be in the game to spend to get a full back who can attack but is also as good as Dummett going on the other way. The way he has played this season I'm not sure we need a replacement, a backup certainly, but I think we should be looking to put funds in other places than left back.
  13. Thank god we've had Rafa for a few years now otherwise we would likely have had a seat on the not-so-merry-go-round.
  14. Updating Chrome solved any issues I was having with lag on the forum particularly when writing posts. If anyone is running a version earlier than 65.0.3325.146 and is experiencing issues, updating it should sort it all out
  15. If Mitrovic had scored that goal I'd never question his finishing again. I realise it was probably a one off, but f*** me any striker would love to have scored that. Demba Ba scored a couple similar to it. He was really good at making something of long balls forward, he got a great one against Norwich iirc. For a winger to come inside and do it is quite rare probably, testament to his physical attributes as much as his skill. When you say that about Ba, immediately thought of his goal v Man U, the way he adjusted to put it away. I realise this has nothing to do with kenedy or his goal just a good memory It was great Ridiculous mix of anticipation, confidence and technical ability. Sure Lindegaard was on a long run of clean sheets before Ba beat him comfortably with that'n as well. One of the best games I've been at that was
  16. I'm on it. Will be complete with earth shudders & explosions as he crunches into tackles.
  17. Respect to Ayo for getting out there and putting in so much effort for the team in difficult circumstances. Means a lot that, shows a very strong mentality.
  18. ... Let's not get carried away now I know, I know. I by no means think he's as good obviously, he's just playing that sort of role for us at the moment really effectively.
  19. The way he seems to just ease players off the ball and carry it away is bafflingly good compared to where he was at before. Comparing his current form to the likes of Kante when he first arrived isn't even a million miles off which is crazy really.
