I am just saying I wouldn't be devastated to have Ritchie back as long as it is not at left wing back... I hate him playing there. Probably just mentally preparing myself for 2pm tomorrow when the teams are released and Ritchie's name is there on it !! haha. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Random point but only just dawned on me that this was the last fixture played at a full SJP before COVID hit. 29th February 2020. Fucking hell. https://www.nufc.com/html/2019-20html/2020-02-29burnley-h.html Here's hoping for a better performance and result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be due to his injury history, but it's something we could do without. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Wonder if Fernandez not playing for a long time will factor in the team selection today. He might not be able to play two games in a week? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankpingel Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Was nervous before our last two home matches. I'm not at all for this, must mean I'm resigned to us going down. Or, deep down, in my subconscious I know we're winning this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Hayden didn't do himself any favours with his appearance in the last game. Genuinely awful cameo. 5 passes attempted with a 0% completion, no interceptions, no tackles, 1 foul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catch 22 still think back 4 needs protection though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even think he's especially charismatic; he's just very composed, measured, dignified and exudes authority. Chalk and cheese compared to the dollop he replaced. Really hope he makes a success of it here cos he seems like a top bloke and clearly has something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan's for me were often full of great soundbites all reflecting the fact he truly knows and loves the area and people, and exuded pure passion and ambition. Made you dare to dream. SBR's were classy and full of wisdom and a bit of humour. Wise sage, with youthful energy, loving every minute of the experience. Made you warm and fuzzy. Benitez were just professional and full of tactical knowledge, you appreciated the depth of knowledge and experience he bought to the table, so you trusted his authority. Made you calm and have faith in him, even if not the club in general (esp in a difficult time). With Howe, they are measured, succinct, fairly warm but at an arm's length, super professional and articulate but the main thing I get from him is that he is someone who is high calibre and classy without going overboard. So whilst he is not as charismatic as say, Keegan (who is?!), he has a way about him that is highly influential and commands respect. What his are doing are actually restoring pride and slowly but surely healing the divide. This is good long term as it allows you to get back to supporting the team knowing you having a dynamic figurehead representing the club instead of cringing at yet further embarrassing anecdotes and lip-licking or downplaying expectations.

He's just too limited for a Premier League player, we can't keep playing a midfielder who offers absolutely nothing going forward. Luckily he isn't a Howe player at all.

Yorkie Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Hayden was absolutely appalling when he came on, couldn't believe it tbh. Even that moment when he nipped in to snatch that backpass - he did well to sniff a chance but it turned out to be such a waste. A second's more thought and he could've put it on a plate for ASM.
