Someone needs to ask the question (seriously and not in a jokey, pally way) of EH, why he continues to fail to put out a team and tactics to win any league game home or away without Bruno Guimaraes. He should be embarassed, like I, as a humble fan am. It's fkin unforgiveable.
Agree with last point, disagree with first two. SBR players took the piss/disrespected him, FS tried to move him upstairs, SBR said no. KK bottled it after failing to win the league from a position that would have seen him sacked at any other club. LE inference fans were to blame for both is false.
Alex Murphy's been on the fringe for 5 years or more and still sits on the bench
What's the point of being Shahar, Neave or A. Murphy. If you're a young player and your name's not Lewis Miley you're never getting off the bench with this fella in charge. Soul destroying.
Not a chance there's a World Cup on then holidays then Big Six take their pick
And Hope will claim an 'imminent' announcement on a new training ground. Taking the piss!
Anyone we get wouldnt get a game off EH till they've done 6 months on the bench to learn how we play, so whats the point. Keep Willock till end of season I'd say.
Dont necessarily disagree but I often wonder if anyone at the club can actually sack him. He seems to habe all the power but we'll see.
I agree, I was just pointing out that no backing now probably means he's gone by summer. I think the powers that be are thinking exactly what you're saying,i.e., he's had all he's getting.
Or maybe they are replacing him in the summer and a brutal 6 weeks would be the perfect justification. I think if there's no help at all for the squad in this window, it speaks volumes for next season and beyond
Yet to be confirmed we're investing in anything, apart from a Craig Hope 'exclusive'. We've been here before, things get the slightest bit sticky, a story appears about an imminent announcement on training ground/stadium. Only actual follow through is the latest range of retro gear. Getting tedious.
Much worse, the likes of Tonali , Livramento and possibly Hall will leave quoting that we're not strengthening as promised. As Keegan famously said, it's not like it said in the brochure. But they're very good at distractions, there's always a training ground/stadium announcement imminent.
Pleased you added that cos I can remember 3 very similar performances at the start of the season. Nowts changed and something reall has to.
Problem is there's a World Cup in the summer so not much pre-season to speak of for internationals and any signings will most likely have to wait until just before or into the season. Not great on either score.
Spot on, 2 good players for every position. Lets start thinking Big Club
Also was the joy of the season after takeover, the two Joes marauding up and down the left side. I remember him getting hurt towards the end of that season, the injury described as 'his leg exploded'. Not been the same since but deserves hero status all the same. Keep your head up 'little Joe'.
A grown up club would have him in a room and tell him its not worked this season, we're exploring options / putting feelers out for the summer. You earned the right to finish this UCL campaign and see how we go in cups/the PL. Sit down in April and decide. Just not sure we're that grown up club.
Shahar would've been worth a try last night too, even giving him the first half might even ha e prevented Tino getting hurt, he looked knackered all game.
Keeping him for instant impact at the Stadium of Shite?
Sorry I was referring to Saturday (Sat) when we played footie and won as opposed to last night when we played for one half then didnt in the 2nd.
Absolutely agree about changes, its not first time either. Neither players on field nor the new ones coming on have a clue what the plan is and that, as well as the set play stuff, is Eddie's responsibility. Eventually it'll all be his undoing at NUFC
GK /shocker aside, Sat BDB out, we played football whole game and won it. TUE, BDB played,played football for 1st half, after their goals resorted to long throws and lumped in crosses every set play, never getting back in the game. Obsession with BDBs head has to stop, get back to playing football
I agree but we've got to include the manager, cos every change he made it got worse. Shambles at the end with Tonali at RB. Got to ask, what the fk was the plan Eddie?
Buyer beware🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Its a good question but how does he get fully fit sat on the bench? We'll end up losing him if we're not careful. He spent a full year on the bench when he came.
Tbh, I think Gordon's been well under par for a season and a bit now, whichever position he's played. There were two possible England left wingers out there last night and I've never been a lover of Rashford but if I was Tuchel I know which one I'd pick.
New Canadian CEO?
Lucky we picked him up when no-one else would or he'd still be knocking in a paltry 6 goals a season in a mid-table Spanish side.
There you go lads (NUFC squad), seems like all that sweat, toil and not a little talent was all for the benefit of Isak. Little did you know that the Carabao Cup was a mere trinket for a 'Swedish man'.May he rot in the solo training field, see how many league titles he wins there.
Must be some contract the nugget has with his agent🤣, isn't it normal for clients to instruct agents? Fkin hell, NUFC are his employers, they instruct the player and the player instructs 'his people', no?
