Gedge's plectrum

Ffs man George 🤬

Losing Miley at the same time is a real killer

He's good enough to start that game on the left ahead of Joelinton!

I can only assume it was to counter their physicality wide. Just makes no sense. We essentially tossed away 45 minutes

I've been cutting them plenty of slack this season but today's a step too far. Absolutely woeful. Wrong team selection (Barnes not starting was insane) and so many poor performances across the pitch. But it's conceding straight after scoring - twice ffs - that's tipped me over the edge #nufc

It's hilarious. And so predictable.

Based on 2 years' form, not a shock. Based on their wage bill, absolutely seismic.

Elanga wasn't great last night but he's comprehensively outperforming Salah. Not entirely sure what the point of him is atm 🤷‍♂️

I fear we can't afford to do that, not yet anyway. That's what we tried to do last summer. I think we target players with CL potential and develop them into that

He really struggles when he's immediately closed down which happens most weeks in the PL. When he's given more time, he's really effective. We need to spend the off season making him much more resilient and better at moving the ball quickly

Yep. There was one guy giving Elanga grief after Willock misplaced a pass to him. It's as though he wants him to fail 🤷‍♂️

Some of our fans in the away end 🙄
On certain players' backs throughout, regardless of how they're actually performing #nufc

We were definitely competitive 😊

Any danger of being vaguely competitive here for once lads? #nufc

Broadly, aye. Glosses over that it wasn't a "purchase" as such and was an action we were forced to take to comply with the very same rules that support City being able to buy Trafford. Utterly self-inflicted, but that's a different discussion

Ah howay, that's comparing apples and oranges

Says everything that City are in a position where they can shell out the thick end of £30m for someone who is hardly ever going to play

Yeah, that was part of Everton's defence as I recall - that interest payments shouldn't count

The stadium and training ground point is interesting. I'd assumed that would be all un-impacted by PSR restrictions. But that was with the assumption Pif would just fund any spend themselves #nufc

It'd have been a very interesting read if it were the other way round 😁

Spot on. Other than Arsenal (and maybe Liverpool) away, this is the worst they could have got

Drawing City is clearly not ideal. However, we've played them twice at home, deservedly won 1 and narrowly lost the other, playing more aggressively than we will need to this time to try and get a first leg lead. We might as well play them now @ sjp than later at Wembley 🤷‍♂️ #nufc

Love this and agree with every word

A really great away day #nufc

Kieran Trippier has just called out the social media comments asking for 'Howe out' after Brentford. "You see all the stuff on social media, which he really does not deserve. "We are fully behind him. We are fully playing for him. So this one is for him as well."

Well... we've never had him missing for an extended period so we've never needed to fully adapt. This is Sandro's time to really shine. At least, that's what I'm telling myself...

👍

Fair enough!

It was certainly after Staveley had left and she was definitely still around when Anderson was sold

Hadn't even joined the club!
