Anyone notice how annoyed he gets when the offside goal went in? Really animated.

 

Rolls Royce as above said!

 

He was fuming when we conceded late last week, too. Great mentality.

We’ve managed to sign an incredible spine in Pope, Botman and Bruno. Wow. I really can see him as world class in a couple of years.


and Isak - really excited to see how he develops under our coaches

He was for me, one of the best players on the pitch today, made defending look easy!!

This is spot on.  The true class of any player is they make the job look easy.  No sliding tackles or grabbing at an attacker going past you, just reading the game.  Watch Bruno in midfield.  He makes the job an absolute doddle without running all over the place.  Pure class, both of them.

Spent the game sitting next to his girlfriend and agent again today. Met him at full time. Doesn’t feel as massive and imposing in person, but a lovely chap ?


ah that is class! Anything else worth sharing?

My only observation of him is that he’s too calm and that gets him in trouble. It’s great that he never wants to smash the ball away and is always looking to retain possession with a neat touch or control, but it isn’t good for my blood pressure

Played a few iffy long balls in the first half, but he's so fucking good. Already up there with Woody and Colo for me[emoji38]

 

Wouldn't surprise me if he's regarded as one of the best CBs on the planet in a few years. 35m is a snip, man.

 

My favourite NUFC player atm.

A couple of times in the first half his passes were putting our forward players in danger of losing the ball, however...

 

After that he was unreal. He's got absolutely everything.

Heard Jonathan Woodgate bemoaning not quite managing to sign him for £2m in his Boro days. Would have been quite a signing!

 

Weird because I reminded myself of the last amazing 0-0 performance at OT in 2003 when Woodgate was absolutely unbelievable in that game. A lot of similarities between the two.
