OpenC Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 (edited) Great little piece in the Guardian. Some may be triggered at Liew's namedropping of the Saudis and the negative connotations of the shithousery but I think it's a good read https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/feb/05/bruno-guimaraes-newcastle-arsenal-carabao-cup Edited February 6 by OpenC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isak has a higher ceiling but Bruno leaving would be the most gutting by far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahoneys Tache Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I suspect that if one of the top players are sold to raise cash in the summer it’ll be him. It would be a bummer but he’s at his peak value and probably the easiest (not that it would be a piece of piss) to replace. Before I get pelters for this, I would be sad to see him go but a big fee for someone who will start to lose financial value (fucking weird talking about a human like that) might make sense. Selling at the right time is as important as buying at the right time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Absolutely awful source, but thought it was quite an interesting discussion point. Is it worth doing to remove the clause in his contract? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah definitely a shout for Lewis Hall, considering he had to wait and wait, its absolutely evident that he's listened, learned, and prepared himself to take that role, he's definitely one of the most consistent this season, and he's really committed to the role, and striving to improve each week. Love him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Looked like he enjoyed that kind of chaotic football. He has he brain and technique to move the ball very quickly so I doubt he felt the pressure some of our players did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 If we are looking for positives to take from this game, at least Man City will have dropped out of the running for his signature after today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 He was so poor on that 2nd goal. Jogging backwards while pensioner Gundogan carries the ball towards us under no pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They dropped out as soon as they signed Gonzalez. More natural transfer for him now would be Barcelona / Real because they’re crying out for a CDM who can progress the ball long term. Him tracking back has never been his good point, we all know this for the past 24 months. Guy has little pace but also not the awareness to sniff out danger before it happens so can be one step ahead to make up the pace which true CDMs have. He’s more of an advanced CM that’s over time ended up playing deeper, and as a result will be exposed to weaknesses more in a side that has no pace at the back to deal with transitions. Giving him a faster defence and with two more players (CM/RW) that can receive the ball in tight spaces, he’ll become a better player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I think that Bruno was better in his first season here than what he is now. He used play some delightful passes on a regular basis but these days he seems more obsessed with trying to win free kicks. I don't know if this coincides with him being made captain, something else that doesn't seem to suit him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think sometimes of late he can play with a cigar in his mouth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Dragon 1976 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 a bloke near me clearly knows that when brunos shot I give him stick. He constantly shakes his head after I shout " bruno pass it " or " bruno your to slow". i just wish he would concentrate on what he is good at rather than try to take defenders on believing hes pele And to top it of the rescue dog i've just got is called Bruno but im thinking of changing his name to Longstaff - you think he'll accept the change??
