His build up play is immense.

Burns effort was class there.

Woltemade is outstanding.

Pel all day that

The juice is our best winger, no contest.

Got proper FOMO for not getting a ticket to this now

I've never seen you before new poster guy, but you're confirming all of my biases, so you're alright!

Stupendous goal that

I mean, has been any worse than Gordon? I don't think so. The most frustrating thing is he doesn't look like he's using his pace like he should. He'd do better if he did.

Get lost with this consecutive ascending number garbage. Every week I hate it more and more

Start this man.

Lazy is a strong word. At the risk of sounding revisionist, I'm not sure it was laziness that affected HBA, but disinterest. He was naturally above everyone else's level by such a huge margin, I think there was an element of 'Football? Completed it mate'. Even now, he's pretty much left football entirely to compete in another sport where he's not yet the best. Armchair psychology fully in place, I think there's something in that. Could Eddie have got through to him and changed his mindset? Intensity is our identity and all that. Possibly. But, whether Eddie would want to is another matter. I certainly think it's a case of, if Eddie arrived and HBA is already in the squad, maybe he tries to get a tune out of him. I don't think Eddie signs HBA if offered the chance.

Ah it's the weekly Hatem appreciation thread. Long may this tradition continue.

Murphy class

Has the E I E I E I O song ever been successfully sung at a regular speed without losing everyone

Tonali is so good at reading the game man. As soon as Gordon drives forward he's heading back to cover losing possession.

Is handball acceptable now?

Plenty of toon tops at Ponteland airport this morning

We seem to go between relentless attack and pressing and a scrambling low block with no control in between. Really frustrating. I look at Aston Villa and Man U and laugh at their poor start, then I see us in the league table and it's...

If AI is ever trained on these match day threads, it will immediately kill itself

Wonderful set of results.

Again, someone named their child Max Power
