mush

Murphy's alright when teams push forward and leave space due to his directness but take that space away and he's shite

We've somehow been both slow and ponderous, yet impatient and frantic

Trips just needs to show that guy his fingers or he'll just keep going on about it

Fuck off with the long balls man, jesus christ

Yep, and we've been forced to rely on a 17-year-old (as good as he's looked) to start almost every game for the last 3 months in our midfield. Howe gets the whole of next season at a bare minimum for me, regardless of what happens for the rest of this season. That's not to say he's without criticism. The main disappointment for me is his lack of rotation at the start of the season, knowing the increase in fixtures that would be coming up with the CL. I feel that contributed to the injury crisis, somewhat. But other than that he's done a fucking incredible job which has led to some of my fondest ever memories supporting this club. We thumped PSG 4-1 this season FFS. The way he's improved players and had us playing at times has been superb. He's in that tier below Pep and Klopp for me, and has potential to become as good as they are given time. I'm sure he's learned some valuable lessons from this year and the only way I'd start to think we should move on would be if he's seemingly not learned from them by next season (which I doubt).

Can't see them making up the 8 point deficit if they lose this

Am I right in thinking Ashworth's role was as kind of a facilitator or go-between linking various departments within the club, rather than being in charge of one thing in particular? Seems like he's talented but I doubt it'll be a huge loss in the long term. I just really want us to play hardball about the gardening leave, purely to fuck Man U as much as possible. Either insist on the full leave to hamper their revival or ask for an exorbitant fee

That nutmeg from Bruno on the edge of our box

Fuck off

Mind he's struck that well

Simply got to insist on the full gardening leave unless Man United pay an exorbitant fee. I don't really have a problem with Ashworth moving on (my attitude is mainly "fuck Man United"), but if he's signed the contract he needs to honour it

Remind me, are they currently burning Beale in effigy or are they the spiritual successors to 2010s Barcelona? I lose track

A perfectly cromulent backup

That was one of the strangest refereeing displays I've ever seen

KEEP. THE. FUCKING. BALL.

Stop going long man, just keep the fucking ball

They're gonna score if we don't change it up

Gordon did a Wilhelm scream there

Howay let's get it together, these are shite man

Jesus I thought that was gonna be given

We should've kicked the ball out and let Schar get treatment

Wilson doesn't look fit

How are they checking that and not the one on Longstaff?

I'm convinced Schar could do a job up front in a pinch

That was a foul like
