Fulham have a nice pair of fullbacks. During the broadcast they were talking about £50 million for Sessegnon. Supposedly ready to fill the shoes of Luke Shaw or Danny Rose.
I think a mention for Matthews would be appropriate considering he has taken a lot of sh*t....did well in the build up to the goal. The other thing is lets get these kids signed up for the long term. It wont be long before the top clubs come sniffing......great result today. Well done Chris Coleman.....that lad has some balls....
I was impressed with them today. Lots of players were individually good and they also played as an organised team. Gibson, Browning and Matthews all had great games, Gibson looked a new man without someone alongside him he covered loads of ground and made good use of the ball. Couple of players like Gooch and particularly Love had a day to forget despite no lack of effort on their part. Well timed subs and we all know the rest. Maja looks ready made for the first team and Asoro will be a very useful impact sub for now I think.
Teeside is funny mind, but cheeky ! I don't give a ********* **** nothing and nobody can get me riled hehe.
It's also no coincidence that Coleman's only been in charge a few games and we've already broken the win at home curse. I'm impressed with him and the effect he's having.
Anyone else notice just how grounded Coleman was in this post match interview, gave praise to the players but didn't go over the top with the win etc, like he did maybe a bit at burton away. Nice to see he's forward thinking and hopefully keeping the lads focused for Birmingham
Will someone bring chicken nuggets and lucozade to NE1 thanks. Am ****ing dying, actually celebrated that like we’d won the league. Ill level 12
He's starting to impress me already. I know it's early days and no way am I getting carried away but seeing how he conducts himself and hearing a northern journalist talk about how he conducts himself away from the cameras really is refreshing. Could be our best signing in quite a while. Could be.
Turns out when I clipped a speed bump in car yesterday I’ve ripped a hole in engine and it needs a £1800 repair, so I’ll not be ordering food for about a month haha.
Immense. Love is getting some stick but I'm looking back at the game and thinking Ryan Sessegnon hardly got a kick. Love is a defender first for me and he had one of the highest rated left "wing backs" in front of him and managed him very well all game. OK so he's not likely to put in a great cross or set up many goals intentionally ( he set up grabban for a good chance wi "tackle" mind) but, defensively, I can't remember Sessegnon being massively involved after the first 5 minutes. Sessegnon is a £30m + rated player who hardly got a kick. When you knock Love, think about his defensive aptitude instead of thinking about attacking. He is, after all, a defender
From where I was sitting it was a lot more like Sessegnon barely turned up rather than Love had him in his pocket. When he did threaten which was very rarely the three CBs had more to do with stopping him than Love, who had a mare.
I prefer to think about the joy of a home win than look to pull anyone apart for how they played. Nobody had a bad game, and to be fair nobody had an exceptionally good one, but we won and that’s everything.
