NUFC vs Bournemouth

[Zippity]

Fully deserved

Manu ahead of us now. The team who have been awful and whose manager may be losing his job.

Now then, Bruno, you know what you get like when you're pissed off... Man U would have lost today if they had the injury list we have. A lot of teams would.

We're not out of this yet although Gordon's finishing there didn't help.

Oh, dear...

Yeah I won't keep going on. I keep thinking back to the summer transfer window. We needed more players. May be too late by January.

We played poorly against these twice last season with a nearly full squad available.

Man for man we’ve been poor today.

This is the team that needs to beat PSG?

I think Howe got the tactics wrong tonight btw. I really do.

J7 upfront was a bad move. We needed him in midfield. I'm going off Longstaff again too. Not good enough.

And what would you have done tonight with the players at his disposal, oh wonderful one?

Packed the midfield. Gordon on his own up top. Hope to nick a goal. Have Willock and Almiron breaking whenever we can. Livramento should have probably started.

I'd have played our star Italian summer signing...oh wait!

We've just been outyplayed by Bournemouth....again. Howe deserves criticism sometimes.

But as i said before, i go back to our summer transfers. it wasn't enough. Tonali and Barnes were a mistake.

I agree we were left light, especially up front.

Tonali and Barnes, however...that's only in hindsight. Barnes' stats put him ahead of the player he was replacing, Maxi, and Tonali was Milan's star player and most were delighted we'd bought him (in fairness to you, I think you were unsure to start with.

If Barnes had stayed fit and Tonali...well, ahem, cough....well, you know...you could have been thinking differently.

on the bright side, Pope has been canny

He got beat as his near post for Solanke's first.
