On da bench again. At least Fred is too though. Maybe the penny's dropped.

He's very obviously going to start the next game, lads.

 

All the reserves starting today yet Fred keeping his place is pretty fucking obvious.

 

He'll replace Fred in the front six from last game, Neymar on the bench at best as they'll assume they have enough to beat Korea without him needing to start.

 

 

You know your onions.

Nice to see my guy was right. 

[Paullow]

You have to feel sorry for him not starting the other day -almost certain not to start a match now outside of a 3rd / 4th playoff. A couple of cameos at least, but you could tell he was trying too hard the other day and desperate to contribute, and it may have been counterproductive. Twitter can obviously be a cesspit, but he was getting a lot of stick on there after the Cameroon match.

Still reckon he's moved ahead of Fred and was being kept in case Neymar wasn't ready.

 

But whatever, the less he plays the better for Newcastle so it's all good.

Not sure about that thought process. I’d be worried he’d be thinking.. “if I was at a bigger club like Real or Barca I’d be starting these matches.”

Paqueta is a regular, he plays for West Ham.

Paqueta was a regular before the move though.

 

Bruno has to force his way into the side. If Brazil play the three of Neymar, Casemiro and Paqueta it’s only right that Bruno doesn’t get in imo.

 

He should be ahead of Fred but the events of Thursday won’t have done him any favours as, while his all-round play was good the missed chances will stick in the mind.

I'm happy to see him raging on the bench

Your club, and its visibility, gets you to the squad (or not). It’s on him, training and game time, to secure a start. Doubt he’ll feature again, though if they bring him on in the final, when they’re trailing three nil to us, and he scores one and creates one, leading to a deafening twatter clamour for him to have been brought in sooner, we’ll… that’s ok too.

Don't know whether it's the diving or dancing he needs to improve before he's deemed acceptable to Tite, but he clearly has some homework to do before being considered a regular.

Shak is probably right, or that is what was rumoured. Bruno would’ve started last night had Neymar not played, that’s why Fred started against Cameroon.

Come home sweet prince.

[Decky]

Will he play on the 17th? Probably needs it tbh. Barely played for near a month now. 

[Deuce]

[Gallowgate Toon]

Welcome home to Eddie's warm hugs.

[HaydnNUFC]

Back hyem for Bournemouth and Leicester, lovely stuff. Silver lining of an England defeat tomorrow is getting Wilson, Pope and owa the waal back too.

[Rich]

Has there been any news on what our plans are for the returning WC players? Are they being given the same two weeks off the rest of the squad got?

[LiquidAK]

Come on home sweet boy. Back to where you’re appreciated 

[nufcjb]

He's comin home, he's comin home, he's comin, Bruno's comin home.

 

You'll lift a trophy with us here my Brazillian prince. Big Jow is waitin for ya!

[Coffee_Johnny]

? can’t remember what I was going to post. Still laughing at Karmgasm from another thread … and above.

Unless they get to the final they shouldn't get any break. Bruno is done now with over 2 weeks to Leicester so he should be playing if fit.  Even if players get to the final, after they do all the post World Cup media stuff they should be straight back in because none of our players have really played that much.

Dunno, think there’s an argument to be made for them needing an emotional break as much as anything. Poor lad has basically just had a major dream crushed for the next 4 years minimum 

[TRon]

Looks like we got the good one. Paqueta would be better if he was a movie star playing the Invisible Man.

[Emotic]

I'm glad he wasn't fielded, so none of the Brazilian fuckup can be pinned on him. Hope it dogs Antony for the remainder of the season, that showboating, non-creating, strollabout twat.
