Picked for England when he’s injured Unbelievable

Tell that last bit to Roma and Spurs. See what they say

I agree and I’ve advocated to either switching to a 5 at the back or seeing out the season with the system we saw against Wolves. But, I’m pretty sure Howe has been given long term assurances about his job so he’s trying to implement this style now, hiccups and defeats be damned. And, you’d hope with the fixtures we have left that it’ll see us put poorer sides away but with Gordon missing (and potentially Barnes), I think it might be a continually frustrating couple of months and the questions are only going to intensify

Howe is setting them up the way he wants to go and the ones that can’t keep up will be gone, I reckon

He’ll start at the Euros and we’ll have to live with it

Not like Klopp to weaponise one bad ref decision to get the rub of the green for the next few games

Casemiro looked totally finished yesterday. Nice of him to have one last burst to deny us a cup last year though, the cunt.

Some of those faces

Glad Mowbray’s sacking has come back to bite them right on the arse. He’s a good bloke and a good coach to young players so it makes a lot of sense that they’d be too fucking daft to appreciate both of those things.

I’d imagine Hall will be sent out on loan next season. Hopefully it’s a Minteh or Anderson style success and not a failure like literally every other loan we’ve ever done

Looked at the safe standing and it was £50 For a friendly where he’ll probably play a second string anyway. I’ll save my money for that over 35 World Cup

Fingers crossed, bud. My mother was in a similar boat recently and it turned out to be nothing. Only difference is that she now needs the same tests every 6 months as things need monitored on the off chance it happens again. Let’s hope it’s just that. Granted, my mother isn’t 37 but she is similarly healthy, never had any real health issues, no medication and it came after a routine test so I know how it can be a bit of a head bender. Hopefully it’s all good, brother

Man United so obsessed with overpaying for players, they’re overpaying for staff now

Don’t they have a big Adidas deal in the summer also or have I made that up?

PLs sources in the mud

Aye, that’s likely the case as you’d be surprised if they remained on 47 points until the end of the season. Thought it would be very funny if they did.

You’re all varying shades of Lee Ryder and it’s about time you accepted it

Bottom half of the Championship is mad Sunderland might well be dragged into it yet

As much as Bruno loves it here, I think he might have a say in the matter if PSG throw mad money in for him. Anyway, that’s for another day. Lovely to see Willock look back to his familiar self too. Some great running from midfield that we’ve missed all season

That’s much more like it. Though I will say, Bruno is beginning to stand out as being head and shoulders above our and the oppositions midfielders these days. I do think we might be £100 million richer in the summer

I’d say trying 5 at the back in an attempt to stop leaking as many goals and give the defence some protection might be a decent start

Andrew, that pinned topic is becoming hard to abide by

I like the gaggle of Indian lads in hi-viz vests that get on at North Shields, stare at their phones while full chaos erupts around them and get off at Meadowell

Testament to how well we’ve been set up to create chances really. Shame it’s at the expense of literally any and all defensive organisation. Maybe we can just outscore Man City in a 7-6 thriller

I forgot they genuinely thought they’d give the teams in our CL group a good game Swansea tucked them in before half time last week
