Apparently we need him to have his Horcrux destroyed. Not a Potter expert, but sorry lads this may involve smashing our Carabao cup copy. 

 

“Voldemort is made powerless by his severed connection to the physical world after his body was destroyed ( ✅), as a spirit without a body he couldn't cast spells without a wand (ouch ✅). His powerlessness also stems from the fact that his Horcruxes were destroyed, which are the anchors tethering his soul to the living world, leaving him with only a broken and diminished soul (…fuck, see ya League Cup) Furthermore, his inability to love is his greatest weakness (him to a tee ✅) and prevents him from understanding its powerful magic.”

I'd rather he stays shite and the batteries are always flat in his TV remote

Id rather he was flattened by a lorry on the M62.

He only hit the goalpost today.
But I didn't feel sorry for him.

[HaydnNUFC]

I'd rather he keeled owa asap. This weekend preferably.

So two months after he joined? My mistake,  thought you said before he joined. I clearly can’t read.

The Foreign Office is your destiny if you compare my version of this.

He’s as tired already as the batteries in my Amazon remote after being chewed to watch a 3pm kick off only a Saturday, only to realise it’s now 2pm on a Sunday.

Reminder: must change them next Saturday!

A double ACL would do just fine. Liverpool would still have to pay the fucker, not get another insurance payout to bankroll another splurge.

 

A bit dark, but factual.

Early days, but £130m not looking like a bad deal so far.

[TheBrownBottle]

I still don’t blame him for going, I don’t think the club was matching his ambition nor what his salary should be.  I suspect he was sold the club on promises of a ‘project’ that didn’t follow-through; it can’t just be nameless wankers like me on the internet who are unimpressed by the slowness and inaction of the ownership.  Also, Mitchell acted like an amateur cunt and I can only blame the knackers who appointed the amateur cunt in the first place through their existing relationships.

 

He still acted like an unprofessional wanker though, and I do have the funny feeling that the unnecessary additional pressure he’s added to his signing will be likely to sink him - and he’ll get fuck all sympathy from me.  But I’m not writing off the moment I’d waited my life for because he acted the twat later on - I’ve seen plenty of unprofessional knackers in B&W, some of which haven’t had opprobrium poured over them obsessively after they went.  He came, scored a load of goals, won us a trophy, was sold for double money is the story.  If we now win bucketloads of trophies then of course that legacy will diminish with each successive trophy win - but for now, he’s a club legend as far as I’m concerned.  And a cunt, too.

Dan Burn won us a trophy

"Sweden's hopes of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup took a major dent after defeat by Switzerland in Stockholm. . . . Sections of the home support turned on Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson at full-time, with fans chanting for the former Blackburn Rovers boss to resign.. . . Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres and Liverpool forward Alexander Isak started in attack for the hosts, who failed to register a single shot on target."     BBC

 

What a shame. You hate to see that.

Nah, the despicable cunt is dead to me. Always felt he would be gone, but he could have left without acting a complete wanker. Instead he showed contempt towards Howe, the club and the fans. Want to wipe him entirely from the cup win.

Really good post. Very similar to me. Thought the recent thread about top 3 signings since 2020 (which I appreciate has an element of subjectivity) was a bit dishonest in its wholesale exclusion of him. He really let himself down with his move though and I do hope his professional success absolutely craters.

Is see twenty-thousand odd and counting scouse numpties on twitter believe Isak scored a worldie last night

I was thinking last night that with his price tag, defenders will want to prove a point against him even more now and be aggressive to win the battles, in a way of “I’m going to show you are not worth that and show my value”.

 

The real top players back it up and win the battles as that’s their personality, but I’m not sure Isak has that mindset? If someone is crunching into him, I can see him go missing more than normal. 

[gdm]

He’ll come good. It’s wishful thinking that he won’t. We are all aware of just how good he is. 
 

enjoyable while it lasts tho. Hopefully an injury to slow things down too

For every Andy Carroll there's an Andy Cole, let's hope he's the former, not the latter

You don’t blame him for going when and how he did? Well that is remarkably magnanimous of you. Putting the preferences and ambitions of one player above the club you like/love. 
 

He was sold a project that the club didn’t follow through on? You’re unimpressed by the slowness and inaction of the ownership therefore no surprise that he was? 

 

He joined a club, as a 22 year old, at the beginning of the 2022-23 season. In the previous three seasons he had averaged  11 league goals and 34 appearance per season for Sociedad. This is after his first ‘big move’ to Dortmund wasn’t the raging success expected, ‘the new Zlatan’  making five appearances over two seasons and then being loaned as surplus to requirements to Willem II. 
 

NUFC, the club/‘project’ he joined, had in the previous three seasons put together the following run of results.

2019-2020: 13th in Premier League, out in the QF of FA Cup and 2nd round of LC. Played 45, won 14; scored 55. Known transfer spend £65m.  
2020-2021: 12th in Premier League, out in the 3rd round of FA Cup and QF of LC. Played 43, won 14; scored 50. Known transfer spend £35m. 
 

2021-22: 11th in the Premier League, out in the 3rd round of FA Cup and 2nd round of LC (we definitely would have been relegated without the mid season change of manager). Played 40, won 13; scored 44. Known transfer spend £25m preseason; £110m January. 

 

As well as the January post take-over, pre ‘Voldemort’ transfer kitty (Trippier, Wood, Bruno, and Burn; plus Targett loan) in his three seasons NUFC have: 

 

2022-23: 4th in the Premier League, 3rd round of FA Cup and final round of LC. Played 46, won 24; scored 77. Known transfer spend: £171m.

 

2023-24: 7th in the Premier League, QF of FA Cup and QF round of LC. Group stage Champions League. Played 51, won 23; scored 102. Known transfer spend: £134m.

 

2024-25: 5th in the Premier League, 5th round of FA Cup and Winners of LC. Qualified Champions League. Played 48, won 28; scored 88. Known transfer spend: £43m. 

 

So I get that last season is a disappointing investment (for well known reasons) but in total post takeover known spend on players totals £458m, versus £125m in the comparison  period. Cups wise,  two quarter finals, two cup finals, one winners’s trophy, two Champions League qualifications versus two quarter finals. League wise finishing 5th ish rather than 12th ish. General performance wise, winning 75 games rather than 41; celebrating 267 goals rather than 149. 
 

I’m stopping now before waxing lyrical about who we have played, some of the performances, the sheer joy of some of the play, or the general sense of hope optimism and identity the club has regained. Such things won’t probably be relevant to ‘that’ former player’s negative feelings. I think they should be to yours though. 

 

Remind me again, beyond a limited spend last season (because we couldn’t not because we didn’t want to) why you think he was sold a project the club hasn’t followed through on? Why he and you are so unimpressed? I mean what kind of improvement was he expecting? There is no valid justification to his actions; his ego outgrew his heart. 
 

And more to the point what the fuck were you expecting that would justify your disappointment?
