Gallowgate Toon Posted Thursday at 10:37 Share Posted Thursday at 10:37 The midfield's interchanging movements are absolutely lush to watch. It's almost automatic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted Thursday at 10:44 Share Posted Thursday at 10:44 1 hour ago, HayDen Traces said: Tonali and Bruno are world class. Best mf duo I've ever seen in black and white Bruno & Tonali ... Lee & Speed Lee & Batty Cabaye & Tiote ... Parker & Emre With our previous pairings, I don't think either player could walk into a world XI, but were very effective for us at times (OK Parker & Emre is a bit of a joke submission). Tonali & Bruno could be first names in their position on a World XI team sheet. Who else is in the conversation ? Rodri ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BennyBlanco Posted Thursday at 11:18 Share Posted Thursday at 11:18 If we finish top 3 this year (big If) - is he our greatest captain of the premier league era? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean he did lift a trophy as captain but hard to look past Shearer, for now at least. Consistently bagged shitloads in plenty average teams. But if you ask that question in 10 years, I suspect the answer might be yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted Thursday at 22:43 Share Posted Thursday at 22:43 bitt of an underrated performance from him - thought live he was having his best game in ages, was everywhere. Involved in every goal bar the OG too, after watching the highlights back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was his best game in yonks - he was just purring away in midfield Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted Friday at 07:19 Share Posted Friday at 07:19 Said the same in the match thread I think it was. Looked much sharper and better. Could see in the highlights that he was behind a lot of starting moves. Hopefully he’s hitting his best form for the rest of the season. He hasn’t been bad or anything during the season, absolutely not. It’s just when he’s at his best he’s at a ridiculously high level. Top top player and personality. I kind of laugh when I hear pundits and others talking about us needing CL would go a long way to keep the likes of Bruno. There’s ZERO chance he would leave us in the summer unless ridiculously high bid and we literally forced him to leave. We could lose the rest of our games and he wouldn’t even think about leaving. Genuinely loves it at the toon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted Friday at 08:58 Share Posted Friday at 08:58 Sometimes you see Bruno and Tonali playing close to each other as a ‘double pivot’ as I think it’s called. Bruno looks very effective and comfortable like that. I think if we got a player in the style of Cunha who is a physical 10 type then the formation could effectively change to a 4 2 3 1.

Pilko Posted Saturday at 18:09 Share Posted Saturday at 18:09 He's been excellent lately, but today's performance in isolation has been nowt short of disgraceful. Hopefully back to his best next week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted Saturday at 18:11 Share Posted Saturday at 18:11 His lack of athleticism has been massively exposed this game. He’s also had a head loss early doors and never really got back on it. Shit game from all of them. Move onto next week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to be a pedant. His pace then. But I’m sure you knew that already. He is slow as fuck and often half a yard too slow to get to the ball or make a tackle. Which was magnified today against a very athletic, sorry, quick side. Who are great at passing between the lines. He was getting done for acceleration and sharpness regularly by Tielemans FFS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted Saturday at 18:28 Share Posted Saturday at 18:28 If we qualify for the CL we need another quality athletic CM. Bruno plays so many minutes and has to cover so much ground. He needed subbing today but we don’t have the options off the bench Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JigsawGoesToPieces Posted Saturday at 18:34 Share Posted Saturday at 18:34 Didnt turn up at all today, looked like a headless chicken and lost his head/temper and could have easily had 2 yellows for the amount of fouls he made. Doesnt really look like captain material, he doesnt keep his head when others are losing it, so apart from convincing him not to leave by making him captain, i dont see the rationale.
