What makes you think that, just out of curiosity? He tends to win most of his duals on the edge of his own box...

I used to think we definitely needed a DM behind Bruno. However, with Botman and Burn/Schar clearly being asked to engage higher and Pope sweeping, I think we could play Bruno deeper and let Joe break up and engage/press the opponent midfield higher, allowing Paqueta to drift more. Just a thought, it would a shame to lose out on someone of such ability, but I trust Howe to know what he's after.

I think that would end up even more of a disaster than Castore. There are issues with Production pipelines and Castore are clearly struggling to manage the demand NUFC has. They are not quality checking to the level they should I order to make up time. It's sloppy but not even the big boys are struggling now, so it's kinda expected.

Think it makes sense to get a loan for the CF position. Ideally Wilson will stay fit, and Wood will be used in certain games - Howe just spent 25 mil on him. I'd take Broja.. But I'd pass on Lingard. I'd rather play Elliot more or buy Sarr tbh.
-
If he does indeed sign, its gonna be great to see an imposing but talented back 4/5. All of Trippier, Targett, Burn, Schar and Batman are great on the ball but with Pope's advantage on crosses, and Burn/Botman or both, we'll be no push over. Talent and Muscle!

Fucking hell. This world!

I'm here. I don't want players that don't want to be here. And, more importantly, I trust the set up now to get the players we need, then coach them as a unit. People have short memories it seems. Trust the process - it beats taking Kuqi on loan!

Gazza for me, I used to train at Benwell as a kid and he was about 18-19. He actually went on a date with my sis! He was always turning up late for training in an old Ford Cortina, socks rolled down, shorts pulled up, big thighs, greased hair - cool as fuck! Remember going to one of my first games with my Mam, Milburn Paddock, he was another level. Did like Ned Kelly too

Can we just move on. I agree Milan are the larger more glamorous pick. But I don't want us being a back up. If he does not want to come then he can fuck off - go get someone that is jumping to join us.

The Real Deal. Exciting times
-
Maxi has a lot to learn. But I'd not be selling him yet. I'd love to see him, Wilson and the New Lad with Bruno, Paqueta and Big Joe. Plus a couple more that Eddie is after. Agree we should be moving on Miggy well before Maxi.
-
Delighted. If complete Young, Gifted and Black and White!
-
Move on to the next target. We shouldn't be anyones second choice these days. If true, get the lad from Monaco and move on.
-
My only worry with Botman is his slight lack of recovery pace and his appetite to go to ground for tackles. Other than that, he's a beast, dominating defender & future captain who could be the base of our backline for 10 years. Ala Kompany. I trust our scouts and AC Milan / Maldini tend to be decent at defending I'm in.
-
Super excited if we get him. I'd rather him than DCL or Toney. Can play wide with Wilson if needed, but up top as he develops. He looks similar in many ways to Wilson, so hopefully with his mentoring will grow. Looks technically and mentally top draw. - his awareness and calmness on the ball it great for his age also from those clips.
-
Disagree. Difference was a little luck and a bloody good gk who had a good day. Feel Liverpool edged it on the day but weren't clinical enough or had that slice of luck. That's football, right!
-
These look like young Parisians to me like!
-
They look like French lads to me.
-
He's a 6/10 quality squad player and local lad, who could be an 8/10 with coaching and consistency in my opinion. Sensible move, no harm. Trust in Howe!

Player of the Season: Big Joe Most Improved Player of the Season: Big Joe Most Disappointing Player: Chris Wood Signing of the Season: Bruno (But special mention for Burn) Goal of the Season (feel free to rank your top 3): Miggy top corner Game of the Season: Arsenal On the pitch Moment of the Season (we all know the takeover was the off-field most important): Shelvey Free Kick Leeds Manager rating out of 10: Howe - 10 Season rating out of 10: 10 considering it started with Howe.

Still irrelevant until we have to play them, and that wont be for a while yet, maybe even another 5 years! Unless we hit luck in the cup. Clubs are on very very different paths these days.
-
Can't figure out this yearly obsession with a fountain, when most wont even take a bath the other 11 months of the year. And the Shearer song is just cringe. Absolute bunch of clowns!
-
It's business. All the bed wetters need to wake up. It's part of the deal, right? Not like they changed the Home or the Away. It's a Third Top. If it helps expand the Brand and support the club I'll take it. Bigger things to worry about in the world.

Absolutely desperate for an athletic physical DM who can still use the ball. Bruno is amazing but he should be the link. Top that with two wide forwards with an ability to score goals. Dubs fucked up but he's not the priority. Honestly think we ran out steam a little today too, we've had a killer season with a small group, both mentally and physically shot.
