He's absolutely class. Gonna plate him a huge Sunday dinner up.

And to think the rest of the football world thought he was a forward player.

 

In Eddie we trust.

Didn’t Eddie say himself it was accidental how he moved him?

When Tonali replaces Longstaff and we get:

To be fair to longstaff - he played well yesterday

Could have done, I don't remember. But shatter my carefully constructed illusions anyway!

I actually think Eddie would say this out of modesty anyways.

Maybe but he said it was out of necessity in the Norwich game

I know mate, not disputing it. Just think it puts more emphasis on the player adapting to the teams need and him doing the job unbelievably well rather than Howe claiming it was his mastermind tactics or whatever. It's the type of guy he is. Anyways all trivial stuff haha

[Myleftboot]

Would have liked to have seen his heat map from yesterday.

If he can get to double figures that’d be massive. Got 8 in all comps in 22-23.

[ExiledGeordie]

Human battering ran but also great on the ball. Will be even better I think with Tonali or Willock playing 

 

Edit: if he’s improved his finishing he’ll be lethal

3.0 I’d say - 2.0 was the move to midfield

I actually do it the other way round at work and take credit for my accidents - “yeah that was the plan all along”, probably says more about me though.

[Holloway]

That's the correct verb,marvelling. Couldn't take my eyes off him, he was like a man possessed.

[Big River]

what a performance  he's a monster, it's almost laughable how good he is at times

Especially when you consider where he started with us.

It’s probably always been there and we just never saw but it’s marked for me how much better he is with the ball at his feet than he was. Confidence plays a big role of course but simply having him face the goal has made a huge difference too.

[dave s]

it’s incredible the boss of the midfield potential in him wasn’t previously spotted until it was thrust on us. 

[Super Duper Branko Strupar]

Should've cashed in on him this summer at peak value. Mandy giving him a new contract, there's a reason she's been kicked out.

[Keggy_Keagal]

In a good few years when he hasn't got the legs to get up and down the park as much I think he'd make a cracking centre half.

I always thought he was better with the ball at his feet than he was given credit for tbh. Lovely touch and finish though, worthy of winning any game.
