Guest HTT II Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 1 minute ago, Happinesstan said: I suspect that had a lot to do with his strong desire to sign. Definitely, he maybe sees a lot of himself in Howe and vice versa. Driven, articulate, hard working, passionate, he’s had to work his way to the top from the bottom and extremely intelligent when it comes to the game in general, on and off the pitch.

DJ_NUFC Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 To echo the sentiment of others on here, I am both shocked and surprised the impact a right-back could have on a team. It's not a position that first comes to mind when trying to fix the many issues in a struggling team. However, his signing has been immense. He's like the Shearer of right-backs, brings a superior air of command, confidence, grit and elite quality, which I did not expect. A beautiful man, to boot.

Mentioned this the other night but in his post match on NUFCTV there was absolutely no mention at all of the injury, and Trippier was doing the usual soundbites about preparing for the next game. You wouldn't have thought he'd come off with a knock as he appeared to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) I knew he was class but not this CLASS. Wow just wow. Does exactly everything with a genius thought and quality behind it. Edited February 10, 2022 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sat in the East Stand on Tuesday night and you can see its Trippier organising the defence. He’s talking to our players, holding the line and as shown after conceding, dragging us up off the canvas. Can’t remember too many Spurs fans who were sad at him leaving at the time. I think working with Simeone has made him into a much better defender and a complete full back. We knew he’d be a massive upgrade on the utter shite we’ve been used to at full back but as you say, didn’t expect him to have such an impact.

Heard he had something of a calf niggle at the end, but presumably it was just an after effect of a gruelling game and shouldn't keep him out on Sunday, since we've heard nothing since.

wiseman Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Wherever the new owners take us to over the next few years,I feel like a large part of it will be thanks to the influence that Trippier will have on the squad, to have him join at this point of the transition is perfect, and it really feels like we couldn't have got a better player to shape the future of the club around.

Paully Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 His reaction to us conceding was magnificent - ran and got the ball out the net and and shouted and encouraged every player! As has been said, I knew he was good but Jesus, not this good! A leader and he comes across like an extremely good egg! £12 million Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) Noticed that too. He was also the first person that Lascelles ran to when he forced that Everton OG. Think with him in the back 4 it gives Lascelles a bit of guidance, composure and improved positional awareness that he’s been lacking since Lejeune partnered him.
