It's actually funny when he runs sometimes as he looks like he's proper busting himself to go fast but at the same time he's like going backwards .


I mentioned this also about Tonali in his thread, but he looks quicker when he's busting a gut to get into the box when we're on the attack. I remember the Leicester goal, when he covered  from half way inside our half to get onto Willock's cross. Couple of other times he has done this also I'm certain. He looks likes he's walking in the Louisiana swamps when he's running towards our goal mind.

If it came to it for FFP to allow us to reinvest, Bruno is the purple id be most open to selling tbh.

 

Bruno looks a shadow of the player he was and captaincy doesnt suit/hasnt helped him.

 

I dont think we would get anywhere near 80m for him If we sold him either, probs closer to 60-65.

 

Currently averaging a goal every 7 games and an assist every 6 fwiw.

I massively disagree.

 

To start with, Bruno is the hardest working player in the league. No one runs more, no one plays more minutes. That's going to be hard to replace on its own. 'The best ability is availability' as they say.

 

Secondly he's literally the only player with genuine creativity in the team. He is a brilliantly inventive passer which you'll be losing.

 

Finally, he's the captain and extremely popular amongst the squad and fans.

 

Other than Isak he's the last player I'd sell

Not a chance I’d sell Bruno. He’s everything I want from a Newcastle United player.

 

He’s been off the boil the last few weeks but there’s some really short memories in our fanbase like.


 

 

it’s actually crazy how a player can go from brilliant to shot within the space of a few games, sometimes even less.

Bruno has been poor, but so have all the team apart from Isak and Hall (mostly). He needs to be playing in the number 8 position when Joelington comes back in. Only a few weeks ago, some were saying we had the best midfield in the country. Well they all have the rest of the season to bring home the bacon. Big three month coming up and a few questions will be answered.

I personally don’t think it’s fickle to suggest Bruno is the one to cash in on this summer. We need to get better at selling and his stock won’t get any higher than it is currently due to his age. Unfortunately it’s the world we live in now regarding finances in football.

People talking about selling a player we hadn’t won a game without until very recently. Righto.
 

Some cunts on here would want rid of their gran the first time she burns the roasties.

Fuck her. Roasties were the only thing she could do well. She'll get used to that pensioner's home eventually. And it's only 300 miles away so we'll get there twice a year. Old people man, never had it so good.

Did nowt for me, today. Again.

Seriously? I thought he looked our best player when he came on. Kept getting the ball forward, link play was tidy, looked like he really wanted to get involved, and even if you don't agree with that his delivery for Schär's disallowed goal was more than 'nowt'.

The lack of control over our midfield, particularly later second half and ET, was with him slap in the middle of it. Maybe my standards are higher than some others but when we needed someone to grab it by the scruff of the neck, he didn't do it, not for the first time lately either.

I think being rested will be great for his game. Not only to keep him fresh, but also a reminder that you are only as good as your last game.

Probably played about 75 minutes today. :D

Strangely I thought he really did try to take the game by the scruff of the neck and mostly succeeded. If the result had gone our way people would have said he was getting back to his best.
