Bearing in mind when howe started we were 5 or 6 points cut adrift from safety (Watford I think it was), being on only 5 points after 10 games. Now unbeaten in 6 and a 3 game winning streak - what a turnaround. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember reading/hearing the same thing happened at Man United after they peddled Mourinho as they went from no conditioning and poor fitness to playing catch up and overdoing it so soft muscle niggles started to occur after 10-15 games. As you say so long as they’re minor and can be managed it’ll hopefully be alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfcastle Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) A win on the back of Everton was more than I was expecting or even had the gall to ask for really. Efforts were fantastic, would have crushed more for the players than myself if they hadnt held out. Injuries are our biggest hurdle now. Like Gerrard (and Lampard) but like that these results will get right up the taint of many in the media.

christ Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Absolutely buzzing. I fucking love this club. Fair play to them all but I reckon it’s a different second half if the fullbacks stay on. I reckon we win that by two or three. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, if we had national health like England I'd retire in two years. Most US insurance has some kind of excess, normally several thousand dollars, think you call it a deductible? Even if you don't have that, most do. I've had numerous conversations with Americans where they've attempted to defend their (ridiculously overpriced) insurance with "well I only had to pay $5k!"

hakka Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Really difficult game, especially second half. We just couldn't hold the ball or string many passes together. There was a spell where we gave a foul away every time we got near them which happened multiple times, surprised we didn't smarten up to how the ref was calling them and just be a little less tenacious. Very happy with win, gutted we didn't see Bruno much. Glad we will have Targett back for next match, but really have to pray Manquillo and Trippier are not that bad injuries. Players that can calmly pass or move with the ball from full back makes a huge difference to us and it was noticeable once we were using Krath and Dummett were on, they are extremely limited on the ball. ASM probably tried to hard this game, but he literally had 2 or 3 players on him instantly and just didn't make those runs count for much. Wood, wow. Still struggling. The only benefits he has is being tall and winning headers with his back to goal. Desperate for something to come off for him as maybe a goal will get him really firing and focussed to being more of a threat. Nice to see VAR helping us with a good close call decision made right.

STM Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Dubravka 7 Didn't have a great deal to do. Trippier 8 God. Hope he's not out too long. Schar 7 He's enjoying Eddie ball Burn 9 Would head a brick wall, class debut Manquillo 7 Looked solid before injury Willock 8 His fitness is outstanding Shelvey 6 Good first half work Joelinton 8 Was class again, bullied them Fraser 8 Tireless Wood 6 Lacks conviction but grafted ASM 6 Poor by his standards. Dummett 7 Solid Krafth 7 Solid Bruno 6 Didn't really have time to do much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
