Paully Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 'We've had that instilled in us with Rafa, that formation, and the gaffer has picked up on it and it seems to be working." Wow! The number of injuries already is incredible especially compared to under Rafa! Running around like Usain Bolt all pre-season seems to be going well!

TBG Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Nowt the magic sponge and running it off won't fix, man. You know what a torn hamstring was back in Bruce's day? It was the butcher string snapping during the cooking of his pre-match joint of gammon with chips. Now snowflakes use it to describe a sore leg, boohoo.

Sean Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Anyone seen the Luke Edwards piece on Shelvey saying he's not lazy? Well, the Daily Mail has run the exact same story, with the exact same quotes, apart from one extra quote that Luke Edwards decided to omit: "It was Shelvey who paid the price as Bruce switched formation from 3-5-2 to the 3-4-2-1 employed by Rafa Benitez last season. 'Defensively, we looked sound,' said the 27-year-old. 'We need to work on what to do offensively with the ball, but that will come. 'We've had that instilled in us with Rafa, that formation, and the gaffer has picked up on it and it seems to be working." Edwards really is shameless in his pro-Bruce / anti-Rafa sentiments isn't he? Haha good spot. Luke Edwards is anti NUFC to his core, such a relentless cunt.

Presumably realises a lot of people in the NE won't bother with his right-wing Tory shitrag otherwise and needs clicks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Logic Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Didn't he get banned by the club a few years back for a piece he wrote? Since that ban lapsed he's increasingly sung from a different hymn sheet. Or am I mixing him up with someone else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Luke Edwards has shown himself up to be a total cock like. The quote him omitted is the standard from him now. Absolutely desperate to defend Bruce at all costs so he's his preferred journalist to go to I reckon. Fucking baldy cunt that he is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
