NUFC and other Sportswashing Spring 2022

[Nukehasslefan]

Look man you're still a poor premiere league team who are awful to watch.

The thing is we may well be awful to watch for people like yourself but to me, it's a joy to watch us with this newfound attitude and game plan. Some games can be pretty average and below par in terms of entertainment and goals but then again it's swings and roundabouts throughout the season. Some games have been an absolute joy to watch, yet most games of late have had that feel-good factor regardless.
I'm more than happy.

You will most likely finish bottom 6 once the season finishes

It doesn't really matter that much as long as we don't get relegated which was the absolute aim for Eddie Howe and the players under him. He's more than achieved that and it's all about being able to now play with a bit of freedom to express ourselves, which I think we will.
I personally stick to what I said a long while back. I said 13th or 14th. If we achieve that it's a fantastic second half to the season by a long long way.
It's almost like winning a trophy as it stands. That's how buoyed I am.

As for almiron he's absolutely shite he's always been shite from the day you signed him.

To you, he will be. To others, he will be.
He's been playing way below par in terms of skill. His running and backtracking have been on point when he's played but his thinking and confidence to actually be part of attacking play has been way below par.

However, we are seeing the real Miggy come to the fore after Eddie and co have clearly been working on him. The last two games especially have shown his resurgence and I'm more than excited for the lad.

Ecstatic to be fair.

Miggy

 

[Nukehasslefan]

Miggy

Fantastic of late.

 

[legend7]

Fantastic of late.

So which games have been an absolute joy to watch?
I've never seen any or maybe 1 but the general concensus is you are still playing woeful football.

 

[Secret Visage]

Fantastic of late.

Has he phoned home yet?

Please please give him a five year deal - he is certainly worth it. Likewise make the converted striker and Jonjo the core of your midfield - the same midfield that concedes the most possession in the EPL and the team with the second fewest touches in the middle 3rd.

Too many to name.
I've enjoyed so many this season.

Has he phoned home yet?

Maybe because Eddie Howe seems to have ringed his changes.

 

[legend7]

So made up bollocks like most things/musings you type.
As I said earlier though I dunno why I asked a bloke who thinks the earth is flat and the sun is a reflection of a generator

 

[Nukehasslefan]

He may get a new deal. How long I don't know. He may leave if a good offer comes in. I don't know. He's looking like he's got his mojo back so I'll wait and see.
I wouldn't be disappointed if he signed a decent new deal under Howe.

Likewise make the converted striker and Jonjo the core of your midfield - the same midfield that concedes the most possession in the EPL and the team with the second fewest touches in the middle 3rd.

I'll leave that to Eddie and co and I'll just reap the rewards of the end product on the pitch which hasn't been too bad of late. I'm well happy.

But here you are asking me.

 

[legend7]

But here you are asking me.

Yip then realised it was pointless as everything you say is bollocks.
Hence I said I dunno why I asked.
Might as well have asked a watermelon

And yet here you are responding. Do yourself a favour and forget about me.

You must be absolutely clueless about football if you think those 2 get in a midfield competing for top 6. They may be high in the form table but 11 games is a far cry from a 38 game season.

 

[legend7]

And yet here you are responding. Do yourself a favour and forget about me.

I responded I didn't ask a question.
Think of it as care in the community.
Now back to your experiments you murderer sympathiser.

 

[Nukehasslefan]

I don't think I mentioned anything to do with competing for the top 6.

They may be high in the form table but 11 games is a far cry from a 38 game season.

Yep, but a squad of 25 is needed to see out a 38-game season and some players deserve a place in it unless they choose to leave.

Now back to your experiments you murderer sympathiser.

Ok, as long as you're ok about it all.

 

[What A Waster]

9 wins 3 draws and 3 defeats in the last 15 games.
It's not a 38 game season by any stretch but 15 games is 40% of the season. It's encouraging to see that improvement. No way we'll average two points per game by the end of the season but the last 15 games have shown vast improvement. The next 5 games games Norwich, Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City and Burnley could well feature 4 or 5 defeats. That'll give a fairer reflection of where we are. 20 games. Good point to assess things

 

[Keith S30S]

Do you think we'd have got out of relegation trouble playing every game with just 10 men?
Obviously, you wouldn't.
I agree we paid over the top for Wood.
I also agree he's not the best forward by a country mile.
However, what he is is a grafter and an outlet and also a pain for defenders which allows others to get into positions much easier.

We also signed two players who were squad players in Targett (loan) and Burn.
Let's put it all into perspective as it stands.

How many would have Dan Burn over Harry Maguire?
What did we pay for Dan Burn?
Targett has a price tag of £15 million. A bargain by today's sickening rates.

And then we have Trippier who's worth twice what we paid.
Swings and roundabouts to be fair but massive shrewd, almost genius signings, and where we are in the league kind of proves that. Unless people want to put it down to luck,

Burnley replaced Chris Wood with a similar target man for less than half the money. It was an amateurish, short term signing. Burnley had your eyes out.

Dan Burn was not signed as a squad player. Your defence was a mess. He has shored you up to some extent. Obviously we'll see the real progress you've made over the next few weeks against the better, in form sides.

It's not 'genius' to spend £95 million on new players. It's something most people in football could do easily.

Look man you're still a poor premiere league team who are awful to watch. You will most likely finish bottom 6 once the season finishes

As for almiron he's absolutely shite he's always been shite from the day you signed him.

Almiron has scored 1 goal in 14 months. Obviously that makes him class.

 

[Nukehasslefan]

Burnley is still bottom 3 with that signing. I'd say Wood has better team input than Weghorst.
I also think Wood will finish off the season strongly. Just my opinion.

Dan Burn was not signed as a squad player.

He was signed as a no-nonsense first-team centre half from being a squad player. A genius move for a Geordie coming home.

Your defence was a mess.

I agree but it isn't now. Far from it.

He has shored you up to some extent.

Massively, along with Targett and to an extent, Tripper. Let's also not forget a resurgence of Krafth and Schar and also to a lesser extent, Lascelles. A massive buoyed upgrade.
Even Manquillo...etc.

Obviously we'll see the real progress you've made over the next few weeks against the better, in form sides.

I've already seen the progress. Playing Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal will be a much more enjoyable contest due to us being safe.
They may get massive shocks and I believe they will.
One thing I'm confident of. We'll give them all a good game playing with a lot more freedom. If we get hit by one of them or even two, I'm sure the fans will forsake it just for the chance to express themselves.

Those teams have to fear us, not the other way around.
We have their title hopes or champions league hopes by the scruff of the neck. Who has the most pressure?..... Not us.

It's not 'genius' to spend £95 million on new players.

It is when it gets you into the position we're in when considering the inflated market that January always brings.

It's something most people in football could do easily.

Anyone can spend 95 million if they have it but getting out of the situation we were in is certainly not anything like easy. You need the right owners and persons to oversee the end product. Eddie Howe and co have done exactly that.

If you write to the Premier League and campaign like you did for the takeover they may award a European place for a selective 15 game period …or even a certificate. You love those.
