Nine

Came here to say the same, tonight felt like a real ice breaker game for him

No way is that a pen

What a game

As we as we have played at times tonight you can’t argue the scoreline, we played with fire giving it away sloppily and twice paid for it Probably the best counter attacking side in the world currently

His best game for us tonight

Gordon has class game management

Can’t be sloppy in possession against these

He doesn’t miss

Pope?

Can’t give the ball away like that, hell of a finish mind

Simply lethal

So much opportunity in their final third but not enough taken

How was it not even looked at?

Dirty cunt

I take back what I said about him not being physically up to the RCM position, he might not be able to do it for 90 mins every game but you can see the upside to it. Howe knows best

Lethal, Bruno as RCM paying off

Bruno cannot strike a ball

The post king returns

I know it’s windy, but come on

Tonali central?

I think we’ll see a full use of Murphy’s gas tank and then see Barnes at 60/70..

To be fair it’s the right game to prioritise those traits

Osula will be happy

Livramento was never going to fill that Trippier role, he’s just not that type of full back. Hall is though.

When Tonali played centrally it was a glimpse into why Howe won’t start Bruno anywhere but #6 in this formation, I’ve pointed out before that I don’t think he is physically capable for the further forward role in our current system and I won’t change my mind.
