80 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 He's got those finishes in him. If he can put them together consistently, we've got a hell of a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 It was a thing of beauty. Power and placement. Just glided into the net so smoothly and effortlessly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willock shares some elements of his game with him imo, big, strong, fast feet, elegant for their sizes, good runners with the ball etc That LCM is going to have some stern competition soon between Joelinton and Willock! 27 minutes ago, Disco said: Doesn’t, on initial viewing, seem to have lost any pace after his injury either. Gonna be vital for us again. Probably the only player, Bruno aside now Tonali is out, we don’t have a likeish for like replacement for. If anything seems as fast but stronger.

Holloway Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Such a well taken goal that, quick feet and lovely movement and just stroked it home. Has come back roaring with confidence Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I actually thought he was a yard shorter which is why he was frustrated first half. Made great movements but didn't have his usual explosion to pull away. It's still there but just needs to keep building up the minutes and sharpness. But the goal was down to his directness and confidence. Hope he can stay injury free now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 He's fantastic, missed those driving runs of his He gets into decent positions to score, just needs to keep working on his finishing because someone of his ability should be hitting double figures with relative ease Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind-boggling From a Man-U perspective they'd see it as poor defending but from ours I think it started with Joelinton winning the ball superbly, so when Willock had the ball their midfield was out of the game Then after that Gordon makes a very clever run, which has Lindelof starting to follow and drop, that run results in him blocking Maguire and by the time Lindelof realises it's too late Whilst Gordon doesn't get an assist for it, he effectively created the space so it's as good as an assist for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 His touch was off at times but when it wasn't he was very good. Absolutely great run and the finish was just a beauty. Great to have him back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 As good as he was, it seemed as if he still had a few more levels in him, like. Keep him fit and he's going to be absolutely massive over the next few weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 (edited) Football ability aside he's top of my NUFC canny lad rankings atm: 1 Willock 2 Targett 3 Longstaff 4 Almiron 5 Murphy 6 Pope 7 Bruno 8 Burn 9 Botman 10 Gordon Congrats Joe!

Excellent rankings, I can see Tino making a run at the leaderboard when he gets more game time. Not convinced Gordon deserves a top 10 spot despite me being a big fan. He does speak well off the pitch though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a moment right at the end of the first half where he had Dalot completely isolated and went to just burn him on the outside but didn’t quite manage it. If he’s 100% he leaves him trailing.
