Kid Dynamite

He was played out of position for 2 years tbf. He's absolutely not a striker and can't finish for toffee. But picking the ball up deep he's better than any of our midfielders at driving the team forward

If we can blow a 12 point lead at Xmas then we can rescue a 6 point deficit with money to spend in the transfer window

Another home game vs Burnley. Beat them and it could a 3 point gap. Although after Howe catching COVID, Darlow chucking one in his own net and Clark getting a red card after 9minutes, fuck knows how we will engineer more dropped points in this one. We are due a season ending injury to Wilson or ASM I reckon

We couldn't have written a worse set of results over the last 3 match days ffs 🤦🏻

2 or 3 players in and this run of games is our chance to get out of it

I've still not given up hope. Beat Burnley and we could be 1 win from safety. Ideally we need to be in touching distance on January 1st to convince any fucker to sign

Everyone apart from you is ignoring him man

Who says women's football is shit!?

Do you actually support NUFC? Biggest game in years and you're point scoring on the internet

Aye. 441 is a good 2nd best though

Sky has it down as 442.

😂

Unless Brentford hit a bad patch or Leeds implode it's looking like a 4 way fight for 17th between us, Norwich, Burnley and Watford

I'm not sure we can blame Howe for our defensive displays just yet. He's inherited a team of (at best) championship defenders. It's testament to Rafa that he somehow made them look competent over successive seasons. Lejeune and Fede were probably our best 2 and we sold one and have sent the other to Coventry for some reason

You must have missed the right banger he posted on the last page My response was aimed at Piers, not Gemmil

The ultimate straw man argument given no one ever said a mask stops you getting COVID. Id rather someone farted in my face in a pair of trousers than with their bare arse cheeks though. Unless it's Blake Lively

Christmas no.1? The amount of anti-vaxers is taking the piss now mind. They're fucking everywhere. Reminds me of that quote, "Think how stupid the average person is, and then remember that half of them are even more stupid than that"

I don't seem to recall you banging the drum for Gerrard last month Johnny Hindsight

Thats why a mix of both is the way forward. It's not healthy to work from home everyday and the work/life boundary blurs and it's difficult to switch off. 1 or 2 days a week at home is mint though. Extra hour in bed, do the school run etc.

This doesn't sound like you saying you would probably get a booster?

Well you can forgive people for the confusion given you have previously posted on this board that you wouldn't be getting the booster as catching covid gives you better immunity. In fact, that's a drum you've been beating for months on here, ignoring the fatal flaw (1000s of them) in that plan

Or... he's done well at international level and a bit of proper coaching could make him worth a bash instead of Richie, whose defending is all over the shop

Meh. If your teams played shit and missed a boatload of chances then you have to expect a few grumbles for the fans who've paid to watch you. You had to listen hard to hear any boos tbf

Time to drop 532 and scrap the wing backs. The amount of times we get caught out in that position is ridiculous. Get back to 442, Lewis or Dummett in place of Richie. Forgive Fede for whatever he's done too! Almiron and ASM on the wings with Gayle/Anderson up front with Wilson. I appreciate that Joelinton plays better wide of a front 3, and our 2 best CMs Shelvey and Willock don't provide enough protection in a 442 but trying to shoe horn our "best" XI players into the starting line up isn't working

Does he mean "some who were solid under Rafa are not up to it anymore" ? Because surely that's a poor reflection on Bruce
