Kid Icarus Posted Wednesday at 21:28 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:28 He's fucking back like. Might just be for a little while, but it's brilliant to see him again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted Wednesday at 21:31 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:31 I think he's been markedly better since he can quarterback the team rather than solely remote-control Almiron in front of him, he's steadily got better the longer he's played behind Murphy. He doesn't need to run beyond Murphy, because Murphy can do all the attacking legwork himself. He can slot in and let an additional midfielder run in with Murphy instead, like Tonali or Bruno. Players at the back with the vision and the calmness of Tripps and Schar are worth their weight in gold when they're on form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted Wednesday at 21:35 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:35 This last month or so has just been ecstasy as a Newcastle fan, and Trippier's resurgence and contribution to it all has been one really satisfying aspect. It was painful seeing him falter during the middle part of last season and although his form improved, I didn't expect him to hit these heights again. At one point it looked like his legacy might be tarnished a little bit, but this run of form has ensured he'll go down as the bloody hero he's always been.

Jimburst Posted Wednesday at 21:38 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:38 Unbelievable player. Honestly had forgotten how much we were missing with his downturn in form. So calm, so sensible. Dictates the tempo, controls the game, leads on the pitch. Happy he's back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnbull2000 Posted Wednesday at 21:43 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:43 Possibly my favourite moment when the Wembley whistle blew was the emotion on Trippier's face. So happy for him after suffering a pretty torrid 2024. He's essentially the founding player of what we're enjoying now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted Wednesday at 21:47 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:47 I'd completely wrote him off, not that I wanted to, bit saw a man broken, not even touching on him as a player. To see him come back from it is heart warming. Hope it continues to the end of the season and if he still wants to leave, then he can do so on the best of terms in thr form which transformed us on arrival, as well as departure.

Pilko Posted Wednesday at 21:50 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:50 Really surprised at how he's roared back in the last few months, his levels have been outstanding. I think we're having to manage his minutes a bit with Krafth regularly coming on to see out the later stages (with absolutely no fuss whatsoever as usual, love Krafu) but he's really made us not feel the loss of Hall so much with his recent performances. Really pleased for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted Wednesday at 22:21 Share Posted Wednesday at 22:21 Posting it every week but I'm ecstatic with how well he's finishing the season. I really hope he stays for next year, since he won't have to play every game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was immediately peddled and the other can't see 5 minutes while up 5-0. Now, those other windows? Genius level stuff, one and all. Let's see what Mitchell does with a budget and time to evaluate.

GallowgatePigeon Posted Thursday at 05:46 Share Posted Thursday at 05:46 Last January I would've been quite happy to bomb him out, he looked completely done. Shows what I know. Not only is he still a quality player, the intangibles he brings to the squad with his leadership, experience and calming presence is worth more to us than whatever measly PSR value he could fetch us.

80 Posted Thursday at 06:36 Share Posted Thursday at 06:36 It's just very heartwarming. Whatever happens in the summer is with my total blessing, but seeing him back where he belongs - in terms of both the pitch and esteem - is great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
