I think as a RCM with a winger than cuts in will be amazing as Tonali has a good cross on him overlapping the winger.
-
Was thinking the same especially with the Mitchell link. Just undertook Dennis Wise scouting and exactly what we need a poor man's Olise.

Lockwood Cup (10 year anniversary): 19/10/24 - Froggy's NUFC Homes win!
Funtime Frankie replied to Yorkie's topic in Football
Exactly the same situation for me too. Just moved up here and sods law the first game I'm back down south -
Definitely proving he is Howe fit, still full on energy after 85 minutes of high octane football. He has to start vs Wolves and every meaningful game going forward. His surges into the box are similar to Longstaffs but hopefully with much better end product.
-
Olise and Calafiori we would be immense for so many years
-
My MOTM. His covering and possession was immense
-
I reckon their wingers will get majority of their goals
-
Brighton have smashed the transfer window, if the new players live up to expectations they will be very dangerous, potential top 6
-
93rd minute substitution into the game out of pure spite
-
They only show 2 or 3 games a week based on this weekend, fucking dreadful. They were showing highlights of the Inter game yesterday instead of showing a live match. No more Ligue 1 at all If it wasn't for Champions league I would look at getting rid of my subscription
-
Every manager believes his speed and power will make up for the shit passing and wayward shooting. He should have at least 2 potential assists today
-
Kicking the ball at the player when trying to go quickly has been a yellow for a while tbh, not a rule change at all, just not commonly seen
-
Still too early to judge. The next few windows will see some great under the radar signings
-
His striker was Jackson for most of the season with Isak they would be much higher. He has had a really good pre season with goals and assists against top sides. If available he would a good signing. I don't have issues with him about professionalism after that penalty incident just shows hunger for me. He has played with Gordon and won U21 Euros together and from highlights of the tournament seemed to really appreciate each other.

Pre-season (2025/26) - NUFC to Tour Singapore
Funtime Frankie replied to bowlingcrofty's topic in Football
Will you be able to buy ticket from box office on the day for these games? -
I think given Mitchell's history with Monaco it was probably us. I wouldn't be put off by Milan interest as Botman proved the lure of the project at NUFC and the premier league is large
-
I think a loan to a league 1 side where he will play regularly is needed to gauge his level and boast his confidence.
-
I hope so, also i dont think he will not be overly expensive and will be happy to be understudy to Isak

Pre-season (2025/26) - NUFC to Tour Singapore
Funtime Frankie replied to bowlingcrofty's topic in Football
I don't see it as an issue, he is a super fit guy who is probably training on his own. Also as per the Overlap podcast with Gary Neville he does a lot of training and yoga on his own during the season too. I think Gordon will be even better this season, he will have a chip on his shoulder from only playing 4 mins with england -
I think we may experiment more with formations this season. Either 3-4-3 or 3-5-2 with hall moving to midfield similar to Zinchenko and Cancelo.
-
Not sure he would be double the price, his stock has decreased after last season, I reckon €50 million will be enough. I think if we can sell and move on a few players we will be able to spend large on RW and RCB
-
This is the player we should be after. He is young so will accept being behind and learning from Schar, but his main asset is that he is two footed so on highlights he can adeptly play RCB and LCB and also as full back too that gives great options. He is amazing on the ball for someone so young. He definitely has a few areas to work on but generally imo defenders mature later than other positions on the field. Also the price mentioned is lower than Thiaw and I believe he has a higher ceiling. If we get him and Soule from Juve that will be a great window and with Tonali they will settle in and integrate far quicker.

It's on sky docs atm. Also you can record it on catch up on sky

Semi Finals: France 1-2 Spain, England 2-1 Netherlands
Funtime Frankie replied to Disco's topic in Football
He has to come onto the pitch to be able to do that. Don't see it happening unfortunately
