Joelinton: will not play against Everton (Howe)

[Newcastle Fan]

Fucking ran the show today in midfield, all he needed was a rest and he's back to beast mode.

[Bimpy474]

God i love our absolute monster of a player.

[The Prophet]

Looked back to his best tonight.

[nufcjb]

I think he might be the most important player in the team, you know. The team goes, as Joe goes.

Fair shout for an argument tbf. Sets the tempo off the ball as well as anyone else bar Miguelito.

[The College Dropout]

Great performance. 

[Ronaldo]

That type of game where we sit deep is absolutely made for him. I do think it’s a very different story when we’re trying to break teams down.

[Scoot]

Just letting you all know that he only cost 40 million.

[BonesJones]

Menace tonight.

 

Didn't look to be off the pace, is he ready?

[Groundhog63]

Scrappy 1st half, which is understandable after the layoff, but immense when he got into the groove. 

Legs 11

Somehow gets away with alot of niggly fouls but will always pick up an inevitable booking eventually. 

 

I think that's what Pep was getting agitated about, Joelinton being allowed to bully his players. Seemed to be chatting to him after final whistle. 

 

No doubt when we next play them in the league he will plant some seeds about our style of play in the build up, to try and influence the ref. Mind you he might not, as he's not as desperate as that Ten Hag cunt. 

 

We missed him though. When he's carrying a knock or not 100% it's noticeable because he's a monster when he's firing on all cylinders.

Back to his bully best and had the measure of that midfield 2nd half. Absolutely unplayable on his day. Hope he stays fit now he's back to this level.

[r0cafella]

Should be due a new contract right?

First game back for weeks and he bullied several of those City players. Kalvin Phillips didn't know what him . 

For “hair crimes” alone!

monsterous beast on the pitch

but by all accounts just a lovely gentle fella off it.

[MrRaspberryJam]

Thought he was actually our MOTM last night, but can see why they plumped for Livramento given it was his first start. 

 

Those long, dangly legs winning possession back in midfield was such a huge miss.

[jonny1403]

His attacking play is so underrated.

[The Prophet]

Up next for a new deal according to Douglas. Well deserved.

[KaKa]

Regarding Bruno's new contract, says the release clause is in excess of £100 million, think they will likely have used the Caicedo record deal as a bench mark, and so will probably be just above that.

 

Think it's fair enough I guess. If we continue on the trajectory don't think he pushes to move. And if he ultimately does it's a big fee that will be put back into strengthening the team.

Getting this dude a new contract is a no brainer. He's an international player now, as well as continuing to be one of the most important players in the squad and alot would say first/second name on the team sheet every week.

[wormy]

Just not match-ready or was it an impact injury? Don't remember anything particularly bad, just saw him hobbling off minutes after coming on.
