Yorkie Posted October 25, 2025 Share Posted October 25, 2025 For someone who doesn't score a lot, he provides some fucking massive goals. Just recently it's West Ham after the cup final, Chelsea towards the end of last season, Forest two weeks ago and today - all absolutely crucial strikes which delivered huge results, scored whilst the games were in the balance. What a man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza is the other one I recall playing like this, just pure desire all the time, allied to amazing ability. They're not really directly comparable but in terms of just wanting to win at all costs, they are peas in a pod from a different era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted October 25, 2025 Share Posted October 25, 2025 3 in 8 in the league so far, seems to be given license to play a good bit higher with Woltemade in the team. Hopefully he can keep those kind of numbers going. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Charlton Posted October 25, 2025 Share Posted October 25, 2025 He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with.He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely will not stop... ever Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have never used that specific word, but your constant criticism of him would lead one to believe you do not rate him like most. If you're going to bump this thread every time he's had an off day (when we've asked him to play nearly every minute for three years, which is context you seem to ignore) then you're probably going to hear it when he scores a 90th minute winner.

frankpingel Posted October 25, 2025 Share Posted October 25, 2025 Waa determined to make amends for the header miss and boy did he deliver. Bloke is a true B&W legend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted October 25, 2025 Share Posted October 25, 2025 You can't fault Bruno for is heart and desire (alongside his super technical ability) the guy will give you everything he has to the very end and happy that today that was a last minute winner. One thing i would say about him and maybe it's in line with the high standards he has set both for himself and the team, he's one the first name on both ours and Brazil's team sheet, yet he has these games were he tries too hard and misplaces everything or gets too frustrated. He's now playing at the very highest level of football and he needs to find more composure and ability to preform consistently the way the very top players do.

SiLvOR Posted October 25, 2025 Share Posted October 25, 2025 Totally forgot about that header . He's just unbelievable, never stops, never wants anything other than a win. What a role model he is for young players/kids watching. Attitude is everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
