Ah well if you go into matchday threads you have only yourself to blame, in there it’s a handful of people, not many,positing shit every eeek and saying half the team is useless and the manager clueless.Oh yes, specially during the games.
Alvarez, Bernardo, and Foden all snatched at chances, almost as if they feared another wouldn’t come, yet the chances kept coming all afternoon.Back to form but he snatched ar chances , not like him usually clinical , but he was all over the Geordie defence like a rash and didnt give them a minutes peace , we've got our pesky Argie back.
So true , it really should have been ten , Haaland would have filled his boots todayAlvarez, Bernardo, and Foden all snatched at chances, almost as if they feared another wouldn’t come, yet the chances kept coming all afternoon.
Last season’s Haaland, yes, but this season’s iteration has often been just as profligate. Need to hope that when he does come back that he is as rejuvenated as de Bruyne appears.So true , it really should have been ten , Haaland would have filled his boots today
Agree , but he would have walked away with the match ball today.Last season’s Haaland, yes, but this season’s iteration has often been just as profligate. Need to hope that when he does come back that he is as rejuvenated as de Bruyne appears.
He's a great player but doesn't have the pace to lead a line.
He's more of a second striker, but he's not even close to a better 10 than Phil is, so I'm not sure where he fits when Haaland gets back.
He doesn’t need pace though because we’re not a counter attacking team, he’s a player that links both the midfield and attacking pockets well, the 4th goal he scored against RM where Phil played him in highlights this, his positional sense and awareness around the box is exceptional.He's a great player but doesn't have the pace to lead a line.

Agreed. I should have worded it better. Versus teams that leave space behind like Spurs/Newcastle, I felt he was hesitant even to attempt to make those runs behind as he knew he wasn't winning footraces versus their CBs.He doesn’t need pace though because we’re not a counter attacking team, he’s a player that links both the midfield and attacking pockets well, the 4th goal he scored against RM where Phil played him in highlights this, his positional sense and awareness around the box is exceptional.
I think Julian could've benefited so much from KdB and Doku as they have a lot of chemistry, i wish Pep hadn't subbed him off so soon.Agreed. I should have worded it better.

the only fit striker we have, had to give him some time off.I think Julian could've benefited so much from KdB and Doku as they have a lot of chemistry, i wish Pep hadn't subbed him off so soon.
