Don't read the match thread. According to someone, he was lacking energy and shit.

someone doesn’t know WTF they’re talking about 

[aimaad22 5064]

Not sure who you're talking about   but I honestly thought he was lacking influence in the first half and just trying to hold onto the ball for a foul even if a decent pass was on.

 

Totally different story second half though, and you could see him in his usual mood pumping up fans and what not. So maybe Eddie does screen the match thread comments at half time as I've long suspected

don't think city will make any moves on bruno.

they would have done it in the summer if they were interested.

i don't think city were ever interested.

great player though.

 

whether january or summer we seem to be linked with zubimendi, ederson (of atalanta), wirtz, musiala 

 

the arrival of hugo viana may shake that up though.

i didn't mean with respect to bruno.

 

what i meant was, no city fans really know who viana is (obviously some pretend to) so the targets we all thought city had are probably further from the mark than normal.

 we all thought hugo vianas arrival as director of football meant that amorim was to follow. well that ain't happening. although it would be funny if it did.

[Kid Dynamite 8054]

Rodri is out for the season, KDB is off to the MLS, Gundogan is a shadow of his former self... I wouldn't rule out a bid going in for Bruno

Is he using Trippier's missus as a motivational guru? This is very "sisters before misters" of him.

If his hair disappears then he'll have nowt to dye blonde which will mean he'll stop playing shite. He should welcome the bald - he's fucking useless as a blonde.

We need one of the stats lads to step up here but I thought it was the other way around.

[Dr Gloom 24477]

Bruno was moved to the right-sided number 8 role and chips in with two assists against the league leaders, including that lush through ball for Isak’s thunder bastard, the type of ball he thrives on and has been mostly starved of all season.

 

Sandro looked great again mopping up behind him at DM. I hope this is the midfield we use going forwards. It was the perfect balance of creativity and industry. Liverpool had more of the ball but mostly it was in their part of the pitch - we won the midfield battle.

 

Let’s see if Bruno playing the more advanced role helps unlock the creativity we’ve been missing in central areas for what feels like forever.  

[Holden McGroin 8174]

Aye. The central midfield in the first half were back to their powerful best.

For the first half, at least, looked like a triangle of big Joe left, Bruno right and Sandro anchoring them.

There was a period in the second half, when we conceded one of the goals, where Bruno was back as the anchor and we lost that forward ball option - right when Joelinton had that shocking pass?
