It's likely Trippier went to shit due to a lack of effort more than his age imo. If he's back putting in the hours like he would have been before 'the incident' he could play every week.

 

You can still see he's physically declined big style. It's inevitable at 34/35 in that position. It was just exacerbated by the fact his head was also all over the place IMO.

 

Glad he's having a bit of an Indian summer right now but still think he's on borrowed time and we should probably move him on in the summer to ensure he goes out on a high.

Eh? 

 

It was well know he didn't want to be here and was trying to force a move to another country, do you think he would have been putting in the same hours and effort into training and dieting as he was the year before?

 

 

 

 

 

You detected a lack of effort from him did you ? I always find that stuff hilarious, especially when it's viewed from tv, where the cameras follow the ball

Read my post again man 

 

I detected nowt, I thought it was more likely his head going was to contribute to the 'his legs have gone' comments than age, given the timing.

[Holloway]

Just re read it, tbf the opening sentence is a bit ambiguous, but fair enough. But just because he had scrambled eggs up top in that period doesn't particularly translate to a lack of effort in training 

[Smal]

since he came back we’ve not had his previous attacking presence, but it feels like he wins every tackle and duel? Was really good at getting the ball out from the back today too.

[Newcastle Fan]

Great defending from him but on the ball and in set-pieces he was a bit lacking today, tough test for him on Wednesday and i was happy to see him rested early today.

[LordJake]

Set pieces shite, everything else fucking brilliant. He’s been like a shaman since he came, Kilcline on steroids 

[huss9]

let tonali have a go at the set pieces, man.

[Holloway]

quite an astonishing turnaround him getting back to this kind of form after the shite year he's had,still every inch the leader and looking quite fucking nimble as well

[Myleftboot]

Wish he would whip the free kicks and corners in instead of shitty floaters.

I said this during the game, I think it was when he ballooned one out for a goal kick in the first half. It was rancid. Massive fan of mixing it up, at the moment we're heading towards meme territory with the floated set penises.

[John P]

Remember watching Italy under 21s when we signed Tonali and he was on all set pieces, and they were fucking class. Get him whipping the buggers in

I thought after the cup final we might sometimes get Burn to try and score instead of always going for the back post Mike Williamson special.

Floated set penis tribute! 

[ChrisMcQuillan]

I do have a suspicion Tonali isn't on set pieces for his ability to break up counter attacks. Trippier doesn't have the pace (nor do most of the team who you wouldn't want to already be in the opponent's box).
