Great touch, some classy finishes but nowhere near it physically - offers very little off the ball as a result. Perhaps just not suited to the league. Could still recoup good portion of his fee.
The Osula arc is intriguing...
Wissa is nowhere near fit imo. He had no pre season then was out for 4 months..: and it shows. Hopefully a proper summer and we’ll get some use out of him next year as a back up.
How do we think the striker situation plays out? Unfortunately I think there’s an acceptance that Wolt was a gamble that hasn’t paid off and they’ll try to cut losses. Imagine there’s still a market for him but wonder if we’ll probably have to loan him first. #NUFC
Too small.
(I’m half serious).
Spot on. Fair to say ownership has been winging it and struck gold with Howe in many ways. He’s been the one constant and his achievements are so often overlooked. Needs proper infrastructure from those above him in the summer to get us back on track.
We could still so easily go the way of Spurs.
“WELL IMAGINE MY SHOCK”
Think we need to persist with Osula up top for the reminder of the season. #NUFC
Not *that* kind of ‘spurs’ either
Gutting…but only half time in the tie. FWIW I think team were right to keep pushing for a 2nd. Great performance and hopefully this only spurs the lads on for the return fixture #NUFC
GERRIN #NUFC
I just refuse to believe your Evertons and your Brentfords can give us a tougher game than Barcelona
Our 23/24 UCL team would have wiped the floor with these #NUFC
Can’t get my head around why we look so much better and/or better teams aren’t as good in Europe
Not Lewis Hall skinning Yamal AGAIN #NUFC
That’s Elanga in a nutshell #NUFC
What’s worse…The referee’s decisions or Sandro’s passing? #NUFC
Yes
I know we’ve got injuries but it feels like we’ve got our B team out. £120m of ‘strikers’ on the bench for *this* fixture feels like a damning indictment of our summer window. #NUFC
Howay Taylor! @podonthetyne.bsky.social #NUFC
Loving the positivity. Not to sound snobby but I think I’d rather take next season with no European football than with the ECL. Think squad + reinforcements need a season on the training pitch.
Oh well. City are very good aren’t they? Could have had a bit more luck in the cup draws but it’s been an unrelenting season. Players look spent. Even I’m exhausted. Onto Barca Tuesday night. Let’s remember to still try and enjoy all this football #NUFC
Easier said than done sometimes but if you go to the game you have to support the team. What is the point of incessant booing and leaving early?
We’re going to need full backs… Udogie, Spence, Porro? Probably better value elsewhere
Would have liked Kulusevski but don’t think he’ll come back the same player after the severity of his injury.
Can’t even call them Spursy anymore
Spurs… Oof!
I guess we’ll wait and see. He’s unpolished and a bit of a wild card but is closer to an Isak than Wolt and Wissa - especially off the bench. Long term solution? Not sure …. but be interested to see if he can make a case during our final 10 games.
Cynical foul and a fair yellow.
He’ll miss Saturday unfortunately. Back for Barca and Chelsea.
