Jacob Murphy

[Kimbo]

Isak would be shirking handslaps after the 3rd runner.

[Abacus]

He'd be stealing people's water bottles.

Behind a red board.

 

Read the room. 

[Milburn]

Undroppable 

[Dyeyzzon]

81 rating seems harsh tbh

[54]

What is his market value right now? Given how productive he's been for the last 18 months and that he has 2 years still on his deal. £50m? £60m?

[1964]

How the fuck did he miss that tho 

[La Parka]

Still the man. 

[Unlucky Luque]

Hits the ball so fucking clean. Even when he misses the goal it's nice to look at.

[Aiston]

Should have scored, had a good game mind and what a fucking cross to Wolatmamanandnde.

[oldtype]

I’ll never fully understand how this happened but he is actually really good  It’s not a bad thing that Elanga has a really good player in front of him that he needs to become better than.

[TBG]

Worth about £80m in today's market.

[gbandit]

Unbearable at times, good at others. Just a classic Murphy performance 

[Menace]

He's effective, it's the easiest way to describe him. That delivery for Nick's goal was insane.

He has to start vs Barca

What a sentence this is.

 

We've come far.

For someone who has been providing consistent end product pretty much since Howe took charge and had more than 20 G/A last season across all comp? Not that controversial is it?

I remember absolutely hating Murphy in his first few seasons with us and now he's one of my favorite players, this new version of him in the last couple of seasons has everything you need from a winger and he does everything he can for the team.

I watched him a lot when he was on loan at Coventry years back. He looked decent, but was so lazy at times and did not look arsed at all. Crazy to see how far he's come and I'm over the moon for the lad.

Not at all. Now imagine you were back in 2020 and someone told you those words would be uttered 5 years later

Not sure it was really, it was a good cross, but big Nick still has to take most of the credit for it, not easy to generate power leaping as high as that. 

 

But Murphy did have a good game, did all the right things and didn't waste much. Elanaga has been erratic so Murphy definitely deserves the nod for now. 

[Kid Icarus]

Murphy has sort of cracked football imo. 

[Disco]

The absolute epitome of a good lad.

Bit harsh, Murphy has the ability to put balls in so the keeper has to make a decision to stick or come for it, the fact he's happy to start or be a sub is a rare quality in modern football.
