Bruno Guimarães

[timeEd32]

With him this season our points per game aren’t far off Arsenal and City. 
 

In the six games without him (admittedly small sample) our points per game are only better than Southampton. 
 

Hope to fuck he’s playing.

Big Joe, Little Joe, Cowboy Sean should be more than enough for Everton's midfield.

Would be gutted but not shocked if he is out for this and we're trying to keep it on the down low. He spent the last 15 mins of the first half on Sunday limping around the pitch. Was actually shocked he came back out after half time. And I know whenever Bruno is going to be out they try and keep it quiet for as long as possible. 

Howe has already said this morning that he’s fine for this game. Can’t see him lying about that. He said that Bruno had a bad injury to the ankle (which we knew about), and they thought it had healed fine as he didn’t have any pain for a few weeks. However, sometimes when he twists it or gets a knock on it, it’s extremely painful for a short period but that he’s fine again straight away after that. Howe said it was something Bruno and the medical team would have to look at sorting in the future. Really doesn’t seem to be a major issue right now.

Bruno:

 

"The best thing that happened in my life was to join to Newcastle. I'm so happy here, I think I'm living my dreams here. I have been playing very, very well since I signed for the club. The job of the guys, the job of the manager making me happy here, making my family happy, making me dream because since I signed, on my debut I said I'd like to play Champions League in this shirt and people said I was crazy because we were fighting for relegation. These guys are so ambitious, and I will keep the ambition because my life is like that, and I'm proud of what I'm doing here".

Is that why he joined us then?

He’ll be off for surgery/recovery during the summer. Let’s hope he’s in the side come the first game back, he is the key. 

[toon25]

He's just magic.

 

Utterly, utterly, sublime.

 

I appreciate that all of these thing are chemistry - what with him being here with Jo etc - but he's absolutely incredible.

 

His drive, touch, passing and passion are on another level 

[LiquidAK]

There was a point after our third when him and Big Jo were hunting down the ball like a pair of Brazilian Rottweilers, it was so beautiful man 

[cubaricho]

He was way off it the first half but proved his class in the second.

 

Like others have mentioned, I don't think he's fully fit and he's waiting for the summer to get some work done but he's absolutely class when he's fit and one of the first names on the team sheet every week.

Just enjoy the results 

[Gallowgate Toon]

Even in the first half he had some impeccable moments on the ball to get us going forward, it was just mixed in with some turnovers. That's the nature of playing him as our deepest mid who is so willing to take the ball and always look to build play first.

I wouldn't say way off it, the entire midfield was finding it difficult against the pressing of McNeil/Doucoure/Gueye/Onana, especially with Doucoure finding pockets of space in behind Longstaff/Bruno and constantly pressing them early. Willock woke up second half to even that out and as soon as a game gets stretched, Bruno takes over, which he did. Exquisite.

Oh I do. But I also think about tomorrow and the day after that and so on.

Just a consistent 7,5-8 out of 10 most games without even grabbing the attention anymore. So fucking good. 

[Guest]

Wonder if we get the CL wrapped up with a couple of games to spare we'll try and get any operation over with.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

For normal people you don’t usually do ankle surgery unless normal rehab fails. Not sure about footballers obviously, but hopefully he doesn’t need surgery.

[Kid Icarus]

He's been playing within himself for a while becauseofhis ankle problem, but the fundamentals of his game are so good that a bad game for him is still a 6/10

Hi lads, first post on the forum, I'm brazilian and a fan of Paranaense, signed up here just to see how well Bruno's gonna do for the magpies and to see the repercussion .

 

I've been watching him since his debut for my club in 2018, in 3 months, he got picked from our u-23 who plays the regionals for us, to the main team with Renan Lodi.  Both were essencial in our south american and brazilian cup titles in 18 and 19, but specially Bruno, even scoring on the first match of the Brazilian cup final. 

 

By the start of 2019 the other players were calling him and Lodi "blank check's", that's how good and important these kids were for the team (and they weren't wrong, Bruno's transfer to Lyon was the biggest my club who is known in Brazil for selling well ever had, also, the 20% from the newcastle transfer is the 3rd or 4th biggest transfer fee we ever received as well).

 

I've seen comparsions between him and the like's of Fabinho and Fernandinho here at this thread, i'd say he's neyther.

 

He's not a true anchor man like Fabinho and also lack's the physicality Fabinho has but passes and progresses way better, Fernandinho is an amazing player (and another player my club actyally formed, alongside the likes of Lodi, Alex Sandro and Otavio from Bourdeax) but for me, Bruno has something that even Fernandinho (who was a 10 here in Brazil and a excelent dribbler/ball carrier) doesn't have and that are his trough passes and ability to dictate the tempo of the game, you're gonna see, his passes are like he has the triangle button of a video game on the tip os his boots, if he adapts well you're gonna have a player to make history on the club.

 

Really hope he adapt's fast to the intensity of the EPL and the team, since I hope he can take Fred's spot on Brazil's lineup for this year world cup, I really believe he can become an amazing regista like player and make an amazing midfield trio with Casemiro and Paquetá.

 

Brazilian tip, the easiest way to pronounce his last name woud be something like "Geemarains" the ÃE sound in portuguese is fairly similar to the AIN in english.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

I still think my prayse in this first post wasn't enough.

 

What a player! 

[HawK]

Some of the stuff he did last night, incredible.

 

Deep in our half he received the ball as 2 Everton players closed him down, with a big gap between him and our defence, and he did a pirouette to take the ball away from them and bring it to safety and calmy passed it out to the right.

 

But somehow, even better than that, when he had THREE Everton players kicking his ankles for a few seconds near the dugouts before loosing a pass that set Callum Wilson away on the right hand side..

 

I think he might just be the best player I've ever seen at my club. And I don't say that lightly.
