Ronaldo Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 1 hour ago, The College Dropout said: I wouldn't have believed Schar could play in a back 4, in a high-line. I would've described him in similar terms to Colo before Eddie. Poor in the air, slow, not the strongest physically. But a good ball player. He’s better in all of those aspects than Coloccini though. Brave and assertive too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Colo has a better career in this era than he did back then. The football is better suited to his strengths and would expose his weaknesses less. Whether he would be better than Schar, I don’t know. I don’t think they are miles apart talent wise. Schar is in a better team, better suited league, better club and is maximising his talents.

TheBrownBottle Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 I’ll go Given; Woodgate, Botman, Albert; Solano, Lee, Bruno, Cabaye, Robert; Shearer, Beardsley 3-5-2. Wouldn’t waste too many slots with defenders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCK Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Everyone chipped in for a McDonalds delivery and they all get to challenge Shola in the McBig BigGob challenge. Shola undefeated, but I fancy @TheGuv's chances this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh aye, they said they spent ages with Dortmund bosses as we are a similar "style" of club etc etc They have around 180k members where we have less than half of that. They know about these online 3rd party tickets sites, and have actually attempted to purchase only to find the tickets don't exist as the website speculates on being able to get them. EPL themselves, and other clubs are involved in doing the same Loads I've missed no doubt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrone Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 On the Adidas deal, it starts in June, with everything now back in the clubs control ie warehousing, delivery etc etc They were blown away by Dortmunds club shop (It is great like) and that idea is something that is being looked at, with a load of NUFC branded merch to come Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Remember a little catalogue that would come by post from time to time for the club shop, full of NUFC-branded tat. Would ask my mum at least once a year if I could deck my whole bedroom in the stuff. Curtains, wallpaper, bedding, lamp shade, the lot. If I was lucky I could get a pencil case. Bring those days back. It'll only have taken me 30-something years but I will have my NUFC bedroom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
