Flummoxed.

Am I getting something wrong here or do his stats not look all that great? Not horrible, just not impressive either.

Wonder if we still are wanting Guehi, would strengthen the chances of them all starting regularly for NUFC and England.

It would have been interesting to see how badly it would have been seen if he had knocked out an old man. Probably would have ended the full gravy train.

It was just an awkward watch. It is on par with an adult beating a kid at a game of 1:1 footy. It is obvious which way things are going to go. You hope for a wild punch that clearly isn't going to come from a gassed out bloke who is nearly 60. Just awkward.

I don't think that is too bad to be honest. I get their point- I would rather be viewed as garbage than a tory. I do get that their political views are wildly different to mine but it does appear to be a tongue and cheek outfit. Part of me wants to know how they printing on the bin bags, the other 97% of me knows that it would be knowledge that would never be useful.

I don't think Bruno's was as bad as that one. Maybe it is a bad memory of his tackle. The one in the League Cup.

How was that not a red?

I'm really hoping this a draw. No good for either of them. Man U win will boost confidence. A loss will be understood based on Chelsea this year. I didn't mind Chelsea under Abramovic but I really don't like them now. Still not as much as my dislike for Man U, Liverpool then Arsenal

I didn't realise that you could view what people voted for so I normally go for a controversial vote regardless of the subject matter. I may change my approach moving forwards.

So ASM is the better player? Although, if this is your opinion, I don't agree with you, everyone has their own view. I think I am in the minority of 1 who thinks that Longstaff offers us something when he plays. I don't think he is a Bruno, Joelinton or Tonali but I still think, although limited, he is an asset. I just wanted to know your current views on the situation.

So the answer is yes?

I really don't. I am happy to say that I have changed my mind. Do you now think Gordon is a better player?

I'm not bothered about the issue. I am genuinely wondering if you now think that Gordon is the better player. Do you?

I am genuinely curious here. Surely you can now see that Gordon is a massive upgrade on ASM? I can see the upset with ASM going, when the takeover happened, I thought he would be the only player capable of staying. When we signed Pope, I didn't understand why and, at the time, I was not convinced he was better than Dubravka. Now, I have no doubts who is the better player, even if Pope does have the odd awkward moment with the ball at his feet.

What is going on with Wilson? Odd comments by Howe before the game e.g. 'not really injured'. He spent a lot summer at the training ground trying to get to full fitness. Something just doesn't seem to add up. He isn't in the celebration photos when the likes of Trippier are. Not after a conspiracy just wonder what is holding him back.

Has he came back after months? It is the first time I am not 100% convinced he is a Mackem.

Just had a look at some of the comments on Howe's starting line up on Twitter. It blows my mind. Sometimes it is probably best for some people not to be able to post on line. You would have thought he had put himself up front. It really confuses me that people like this exist. Where do they live? Do they work? Is this like a keyboard warrior problem or do they behave like this in the real world? Baffling.

Just shows that we are on the right track. A few of us fans have been losing our heads this season but we are 10 games in and 3 points off 3rd place (maybe 5 points). I really hope that we have a few players lined up for January. Good to see Howe be able to shuffle a few players in and out over the last 3 games.

We played the game that we had to play. It was a really well managed game. It was on par with what Man U did to us in the final a few years back. We got the goals then managed the game to the final whistle.

Glad to see he read my message!

Howe forgot to sub Tonali. Awkward.

That was unfortunate

Nah, all down to Longstaff. You are just blinded to his 'alrightness'
