nufc4eva Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 I think this period with him in goal has shown how much we need a keeper with good distribution to progress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkeye Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 The defence seems to play loads better with Dubs in goal, the fact that he can receive the ball and kick it like a human being rather that some kind of alien species must be very reassuring to the back 4.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 IMO he shouldn’t have played for the club again after demanding a move to Man Utd. And we shouldn’t have let him go. But I suppose we have to move on from that and he has played well recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was number one with us and was dropped and a far bigger club in stature wanted him on loan - no idea why anyone would not want that move? I don’t understand our fans having a go at him for that move - he also won a medal whilst with them sadly! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 I still think bringing Tonali into the 6 role has had a bigger impact on us defensively than Dubs. He of course has done well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
On the Grid Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 Gave us a way better dimension in bypassing any press the opposition put on us compared to Pope. Defence has way more confidence in giving him the ball compared to Pope and it shows Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 Howe with his quotes of he'd like him to stay if he had his way makes the wrong headlines in my opinion. Makes it seem players are getting sold without him knowing. He's got to find a way of not making it seem him and Mitchell are at loggerheads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems pretty clear he's just acknowledging the struggles of PSR rather than saying players are getting sold behind his back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he isn't happy about losing a player I'm sure he's been told about it and the possible fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally understand wanting the move but the way he went about it left a sour taste for me - he wasn't exactly going there to be number one either like.

nufcjb Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 Might be controversial, but I'd rank Dubs alongside the great Pav as one of our iconic keepers. Not the best, but Dubs leaves as almost, a cult-like hero status for us. Thanks Dubs. Your redemption arc is complete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 (edited) He completely spoiled his reputation with the Man United loan and how bad he was last season for me. I would say this run of form has cancelled that out and he leaves with a solid rep. Edited January 8, 2025 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexf Posted January 8, 2025 Share Posted January 8, 2025 It was the "that would be my wish" at the end after being asked if he could stay and get a new contract that concerned me. Just no need to say that or put that out there if you know he's leaving. All that is gonna do is let everyone know that Mitchell has sanctioned a sale against Howe's wishes. We don't need any of that bullshit again. They need to keep any disagreements behind closed doors. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
