I do t see them as a duo but 2 parts of a trio Yeah I meant playing together basically. As a trio, him, Sandro and Joelinton looked a million dollars tonight.

Yorkie Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 Love the way he drilled the first one into the ground to turn the ball into a penny floater. Class tekkers. Remind you of your bae, @Theregulars? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 9 minutes ago, STM said: I don't even know where start, his two goals are mere icing on the cake. His first time passes are sublime. His first touch assured. His vision is great (you see that pass to Gordon). But his off the ball work... The way he sprints with real pace to get back, cuts out passing lanes, commits little fouls, nudges, kicks, annoys.. it's all this stuff we've been missing. We all love Bruno but it just isn't his game and we even get Bruno Mk 2 which is a mile better than Longstaff. Can anyone remember the West Ham away game, before his suspension, 2-2 IIRC, where he didn't deal with the situation and pretty much cost us 2 points? He was nowhere near it. Now we have our gladiator that we signed and we've also got Bruno back. There's no coincidence we signed this guy, we just needed a bit of faith in the process. He's top drawer and a player we desperately needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 In some ways he's the anti-Bruno but in others they have the potential to form a really great partnership. Can't be many better pairs in European football when they're on top of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 (edited) He was leading in the second half too. Was trying to get players to calm down after we went 3 up especially. They didn’t really seem to do it, but hopefully his experience playing at a top level can eventually help us too.

Newcastle Fan Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 So good today and both strikes were of great technique, really enjoy watching him in the stadium as you get to see just how much space he covers for the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginola14 Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 Great to see him coming really good now, I was a bit underwhelmed at the start but no doubting his quality he's been brilliant last few games starting to think we'd be playing CL football this season and maybe won the LC last year had he not been suspended (don't think we've had a more unlucky season in my lifetime when you also factor in so many injuries) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several fans wanted this to happen a while before it did, including giving him a run in the team. Giving someone a run of games is just necessary, can't expect much from the odd start here and there.

dave s Posted December 18, 2024 Share Posted December 18, 2024 it’s working. it’s allowing bruno to get around the box more when we move to attack, and he’s fucking class on the ball in tight spots in front of the defenders.. goals weren’t bad either like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
