Lush Vlad Posted February 24, 2024 Share Posted February 24, 2024 Thought he still looked fast and direct. I also thought Barnes looked really positive for the goal and showed good speed. In the few times he has played there. Gordon doesn’t look as comfortable on the right. But I’d love to get a front 3 out of this pair and Isak, somehow. Some genuine interchanging, movement, pace and a goal threat across the board. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just feel like he is a pure, touch inside and shoot wide forward type. Whereas Gordon seems a bit more versatile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted February 24, 2024 Share Posted February 24, 2024 When all fully fit I really think Isak, Gordon and Barnes can be a big threat especially if they have Willock in behind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - we are well covered on the left with Barnes - The Joes and Anderson, that’s not to say Gordon can’t play there either - his flexibility is invaluable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted February 27, 2024 Share Posted February 27, 2024 Another good shift tonight and playing in a position that whilst he can play it, it's not his favorite.. AG is only gonna improve, IMO. Got a real player on our hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir_9 Posted February 27, 2024 Share Posted February 27, 2024 (edited) Love this lad, been the brightest spark this year and has the potential to be a NUFC legend if he continues to develop.

Big Jow Posted February 27, 2024 Share Posted February 27, 2024 He’d give Constitution Hill a race this season. Phenomenal. Part of me hopes Southgate is as thick as he looks to date and leaves him out the squad in the summer so he can rest every muscle and joint in his body.

And his effort in extra time was decent IMO, it's a terrific save and Longstaff should have put away the rebound. What a signing he has been, by far our player of the season. We would have been absolutely fucked without him. That sequence when he tracked back to win the ball tells us all we need to know about him tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted February 27, 2024 Share Posted February 27, 2024 That tracking back in ET was insane. What a class act he's been this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Wonder if Rashford does that backtracking? Really harsh if he's left out of the Euros but would definitely be good for us. Although doubt he would play much in any case due to the aforementioned Rashford. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Certainly my player of the season. Only vague competition I can think of would be Bruno (can you imagine where we'd be without him in our midfield three?) and Schar at a push. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucasol Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Definitely don’t want Slothgate picking him for the March round of internationals. Him and Isak need to rest up for two weeks and go again for the last dozen or so games of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibierski Posted February 28, 2024 Share Posted February 28, 2024 Finishing aside in ET, he was superb. His constant movement and runs made us more threatening, and his energy levels are just insane. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
