NUFC twitter just said injury was midweek A lot of us said it at the time, bringing him on was silly and thus it's proven to be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Madrid in 12 months to be joined by Paqueta who will take the coin for a year in London before telling Moyes to piss off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's pray it's not a longterm/niggling recurring injury. I disagree to be honest, when Bruno came on they had a 10 minute spell where they where pressing, and we needed someone in the middle to calm things down, and slow the game down, which Bruno is good at. Howe has said he wants to priorities the cups, which means putting your best players on to see a game out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordinarily I would agree but they were kicking players and the ref was letting them, was asking for trouble Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if we can't beat Tranmere without 10 minutes of Bruno then we've clearly failed in the transfer department this summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't worth the risk in such a physical/aggressive game - have a go at cups yes but choose your battles with irreplaceable players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 If ever there was a game to keep him on the bench it was that one. Clear as day they were outclassed so they resorted to being overly physical to even it out a bit. He watched them break Lascelles' nose, snap Krafth's knee, attempt to break Darlow's leg in the previous 80 mins, what the fuck was he thinking bringing him on? That's turned out to be a very costly mistake, I know players can get injured in any game but knowingly throwing him into that situation was foolish. 15 points to play for before the International break ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoSelecta Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) I know we can’t rebuild Rome in a day, but the first team and bench today really highlights our lack of quality in depth. Edited August 28, 2022 by BoSelecta Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abacus Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Agreed that it was a stupid decision to bring him on against Tranmere, especially if he was carrying a knock after City. We've got plenty of crap players who could have been brought on instead and still have seen the game out, especially given they were determined to kick lumps out of players and that the ref was letting them.

worthy Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Just now, OpenC said: Absolutely fucking insane we are clearly a one man team, fuck what Howe has achieved so far I mean not having our best striker (wilson), our by far best dynamic midfield and passer (bruno g) and still having Miggy with dubious finishing does not really do us any good. Longstaff has shown that he struggles with the pace of the league more than once, Willock has not been able to get near his form. And Wood has no end product nor good at holding up or getting teammates in to space. So we are left with hoping that ASM has a bastard of a day, although Wolves wont play with IWBs so the space for him to run in to wont be there. We knew already that there wouldnt be a Wilson though, but losing Bruno G as well and for some reason not getting the paperwork done on Isak even though other clubs have been able to do it fast is a bit of a let down to say the least.

The negatives relating to the team and bench today are not lost on me; I just can't believe the way people are going on specifically about Bruno and a lad who has never even played for us before for months we've been a different class to anything we've seen for almost 20 years, that still gives me a bit of hope misguided or otherwise Edited August 28, 2022 by OpenC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
