andycap Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Just now, Super Duper Branko Strupar said: Bruno's ball winning and eagerness that high up and Tonali's reading of the game and ability to play at a slower speed to everyone else is exactly what we need. Just a shame Tonali doesnt have the profile to play that position. What position? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Clicking really well now with Sandro at 6 and Bruno causing havoc higher up. Its completely revitalized our right side. We look a different team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Get a fourth then bring on the subs. A Newcastle fan can never be comfortable if the opposition score early in the second half even if it only makes it 1-3. A fourth and we can enjoy the rest of the game.

KaKa Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 (edited) Despite still missing some glaring chances, Tonali coming in has given us extra to create much more, and so it's now not as big of an issue. Has also made us better defensively. This was the frustrating thing earlier on this season when we were missing these chances and losing because the midfield wasn't good enough to keep creating more as well as not being good enough defensively to help keep the other team out.

Stifler Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 7 minutes ago, Big Geordie said: Ipswich are really naive, but we've been excellent to take advantage of that. Tonali and Bruno bossing the middle of the park. Can’t see how you stay up playing like they do. Southampton, Leicester, Wolves, and today Ipswich all look much worse than what we ever were when we were battling against relegation. Probably the only thing keeping Everton up.

Oregon_Geordie Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Props to Murphy, limited in many ways but a great squad player who always gives his all - in great form too, undroppable right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Tonali playing as 6 which is allowing Bruno to play more as an 8 has transformed this team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickTop Posted December 21, 2024 Share Posted December 21, 2024 Our press has been fantastic, must be honking to play against. They've almost got in-between our lines a couple of times like many teams have this season but the difference today is Tonali is there to snuff it out. Looking good. If we get to the hour mark and it's still looking good it's time to rest a few of the big hitters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
