Although if we get in the CL, then why would we need to? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just recently thought how ridiculous Robert would've been cutting in from the right with that left foot, he would've been scoring +20 goals a season.

Probably not a great price, desperate to stay, ultra willing team player, probably cheap wages, big for morale. Makes too much sense to keep, over all. What a ball for Gordon's goal. Top tier stuff.

That Savinho had a great game when switched to the left for Man City the other day aswell. Something to be said for good quality crosses. Is odd that something so common in the past got replaced almost exclusively by inverted wingers. That being said I think if you have good quality overlapping full backs like Hall and Trippier (pre meltdown) then it kind of negates the need and you get best of both worlds if you have the inverted wingers then aswell who can cut inside and shoot. Murphy has been a solid squady since Howe however and I think our win % when he starts over the last few years is really high. So he certainly brings a balance to the side and has a great relationship with Isak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Had some dodgy moments where he held onto the ball a bit too long, but otherwise, blown away by how well he continues to play. Seems to have really got a good sense of what his strengths and weaknesses are and so doesn't try to do too much for the most part. Gets into really good positions and looks to deliver the ball into dangerous areas early and often. Been a massive part of the turn around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emotic Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Part of me is feeling like if we brought a new RW now to replace Murphy, it'd just be a Tino Asprilla upsetting the squad balance situation all over again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto2005 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) I highly doubt the RWs we're looking at are dating porn stars and shouting "Fuck you Keith Gillespie" on Facetime though. Edited January 15 by Alberto2005 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Oddly thought he was our best attacker today albeit Ait Nouri can’t defend and they were overloading on the other side which allowed him space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Thought oddly he put great balls into the right areas tonight and yet we had no one in the right areas to finish. Which means he should have got his head up and played to the right positions but also means the players expecting to receive the balls should have also ran to the right areas. I'd generally side with the former on that latter point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaqen Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 There's something quite refreshingly simplistic about his game. I guess because nearly every side plays with inverted wingers these days you don't really see just that ball out of feet create half a yard for a cross or shot across goal much anymore.

duo Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Love the way he always looks to pass the ball forward. Can see him constantly looking for Isak and Gordon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson comes to mind, but let's not go there) would have filled their boots on the back of those deliveries tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
