For the Dan Burn haters ..... he's been IMMENSE tonight.  However, he had three poor games in September 2023 (apparently).

 

Burn is a fantastic central defender

 

Burn has severe limitations as a fullback

 

Both of these things can be true

What a good half. The midfield 3 look fucking lush. Maybe it just needed a bit of time to gel but night and day from earlier in the season. Moving Sandro to the base has been a masterstroke 

 

Yup, just need to stick with it and let it continue to gel even further.

 

Even against the low blocks that have been a problem, having the threat of a Tonali shot or link up now added in, will make a massive difference.

We've played some nice stuff in that half.

 

Has any player scored a hat-trick for us under Howe? I can't think of a game where it's happened.  There's been plenty of games where Isak or Wilson have been taken off when on 2 goals that made it seem like Howe was somehow averse to players scoring hat-tricks.  Has it happened & I've just forgotten?

That midfield three is really starting to gel. Gordon showing flashes of his old self. Isak looking very isolated but up against a back three so perhaps understandable. Joelinton playing with staples in the side of his head and busted up gob and still going in for headers.  The man's nails credentials are unquestionable.

Sandro Ole Ole Ole... :D 

 

Couple of things, that was a really weird half of football, we've controlled it for the most part, but at the same time it feel like the game hasn't really got going as its been so stop start, and the ref being very trigger happy.

 

Also the audio on the feed it really weird, you can't hear the pitch sounds, so no ref whistles, no balls being kicked etc. Its quite disconcerting. :lol:

 

Finally.... 

Sandro Ole Ole Ole....

Can't stick with it next match.

 

Joelinton is suspended.  

 

But after that...
