My manager :smitten:

 

Expect there will be a few popping up with an understanding of football shared only by depressed children who will say that we only looked so good because the teams we're beating were terrible, but that's simplistic bullshit tbh. It's as much that we've made them look shite by being completely unplayable going forward the last few games

Moving Tonali to 6 has saved him.

 

Got there eventually, and at least he tried it and gave it a chance, despite it not being how he envisioned things initially.

 

Gets a ton of credit for that for me.

 

We now have a pretty settled first 11 and it is paying dividends and the team is going from strength to strength.

 

Salute Mr. Howe!

Perfect day for him and us today. Dream start and allowed us to relax and dictate the game. We relaxed and there was no pressure to force anything as we were up immediately. We played it beautifully, scored 4, could have had even more, clean sheet away from home, no injuries (that we're aware of) and key players rested. Squad got some minutes and we should be that little bit fresher for Boxing Day. 

 

Poor opponents again but you still have to win these games and we have done. Fantastic week, couldn't have wished for better :)

Just another absolutely brilliant day watching this guy's NUFC. Long may it continue. 

 

Pressure does remain on because there's some tough fixtures ahead and the onus is very much now on sustaining the momentum we've so efficiently built this week. Not for the first time this season...

 

Two draws before New Year wouldn't be the end of the world but really we want to be looking at four given our record against Vile.

I was very wrong about not expecting Howe to move Bruno up, as I didn’t think he saw him as physically capable of being an 8 for extended periods of time. Its great how integrated Tonali is already, where would we be if the ban never happened?

 

Mental how one player in and one position change has seen us go from looking like a badly coached mess to very solid performances.

I aired my concerns and do not regret doing so. Please keep proving me wrong, 3 fantastic results and performances. The fact they’re against poorer sides is a good thing, as that’s where the issues were.

7th isn’t so unrealistic after all it seems…

 

Villa and Man Utd are winnable games, 4 points puts us on 30 point at the half way point, which is a similar tally to last season when we came 7th.

 

 

 

Nobody said it was unrealistic. WUM.

we are one point behind city.. when did that happen haha 

 

Being a point behind this current City team is nothing to boast about, lol

 

But we are going along nicely, been a really good week for the team and Howe

 

A tough week of fixtures coming up, no doubt the doylems will be lurking and waiting to pounce if we aren't perfect
