TRC Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 2 hours ago, The College Dropout said: He’s a player though. People slagging Caicedo off is such a lazy take. Probably been the best midfielder in the league this season along with Palmer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Plugged gaps and used his speed very well in a tough situation for a sub. Personally, I think he's going to generally show most of his real qualities from RCM over a sustained period but it was the right time today to get him in centrally.

That Bruno in the middle song with Isak & Botman mentioned,How many times have they all played together I dont think ive seen “Everyone fit” for a spell years.

Newcastle Fan Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Midfield looked so much better without him and he looked so much better coming from the bench, guess this is what's best right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Squad depth, he’ll start games , he’ll be on the bench for games. Same with Barnes. Having those two come on for us was absolutely lush. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Think we'll see him in for Longstaff next game. Longstaff was good today but Tonali was quality against Chelsea by all accounts (I missed the game) so feels like he should keep his place. Was very telling that when he came on today he went to the centre of the midfield trio, think that's the plan going forward and I can't wait to see it.

Tonali was great midweek, and he was excellent when he came on today as well. Not sure he'll start against Forest, but at least the midfield is starting to look less fragile. He looks much better when he's played centrally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myleftboot Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Will he be happy being a bit player or want to be a main man like Bruno,Joelinton,Isak and Gordon. Only time will tell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Don't think there's any need for a set in stone midfield. Different players will bring different qualities and it just depends who we're playing and how we want to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Got the feeling eventually we will see... Tonali Bruno Willock Gordon Joelinton Isak But perhaps Longstaff has cemented his starting place for a while again in Eddie's eyes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 There would be something wrong if we couldn’t fit Tonali into our team. I know the team is the most important thing but it would be a waste. Early days though, no need to freak yet. As long as we’re winning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter how much we bossed them - we couldn't finish that day. If Arse bossed us today but kept losing composure in and around the box, we'd call ourselves deserved winners.

Nine Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 There’s definitely scenarios where he can play that #6 role, either coming on at 60 mins or against certain opponents. I think Howe will keep Bruno there for the majority of the time though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holloway Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 with Miley back and everyone fit there is a healthy competition in that area, you'd think there will be a degree of rotation going forward Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
