it’s just goes to show how shit their fans are. This is a local derby.

💯. He can do a job as a striker and probably on the wings.

Their whole central midfield was out and had to play 4th and 5th choices. I think that massively impacted them. They’ll be a different team with the core back. im not sure why Coady started instead of Faes and that LB was absolutely dreadful as well.

They'll no doubt play until they score.

Hall and Gordon superb today. Burn was faultless. Tonali looked good. It has to be said that they were fucking tragic though. I think they were missing 2 or 3 of their starting centre midfield. Skipp is a league one footballer. Awful

When did we sign Roberto Carlos?

This has got 0-1 sucker punch written all over it.

don’t you dare!

Isak hasn’t even been in the camera shot nevermind have a touch.

Started off like we are playing a shit team. Standard.

Lost the coin toss again.

If they score the first goal then I fancy them to hang onto at least a point.

That Leicester team is dog shit. Coady only plays well in a back 3 and Choudary and Skipp are not in the same league as our central midfield. 0-0.

Looks like we have. It’s now expiring 2026.

Isn’t his contract up at the end of the season? If so, we’d get next to nothing for him.

I miss understood what you were saying about potential. I haven’t fully dismissed Tonali (and genuinely want him to succeed here) but when you can’t dislodge the (arguably) worst player in the team out of his position, then things aren’t looking good for him. I agree he still has time but I think he needs to put a marker down in the remainder of the season or he’ll back to Italy in the Summer.

Potential doesn't make them blue chip players now. I'm not sure if you're referring to Gordon or Tonali here.. I think your constant battles with LTA have perhaps subconsciously elevated Gordon higher than his actual ability. You need to be knocking in 15 goals a season regularly from that position to be world class (imo). For reference, I love Tonali. His work ethic is spot on and he is obviously very talented. I just don't think many Italians make it as legends in the PL.

Gordon isn't a good enough finisher (at the moment) to be elite. Tonali has had 5 months to make an impression. He might well end up elite but im suggesting it won't be here. Or maybe our definition of a blue chip player is different. Bruno, Isak and Botman (pre-injury) wouldn't look out of place in the Real Madrid team.

Botman, Bruno and Isak are the blue chip players for me. I would have included Trippier in that pre age decline/divorce. Gordon is a level below them and Tonali has done nothing of note at NUFC. He'll probably end up winning a CL with a team on the continent but he can't displace Longstaff so im not holding my breath he makes it here.

If he shaved that facial hair off he could still get away with being 17.

If you’re desperate to rebuild the midfield then he wouldn’t be a stop gap. i suspect Man City are going to splash some cash in January to get their season going again. i think is class by the way. One of 3 genuine blue chip players we have.

I suspect a striker is now top of the transfer list this January. In the meantime, we’ll have to hope games are going out way when we take Isak off for a breather. We clearly don’t want to put Willy O on while chasing a game.

There is only man that can step up to save the season. Give me a shout when you’re ready to bow down.

Mid table team lads. He needs the funds to build.
