Given he doesn’t really work in midfield in Jaiselles system I wouldn’t be surprised to see Joelinton playing across the front four in certain games. Could be a pressing machine #nufc

Neave looks ready for senior football, have to get him a loan #nufc

Think the desired play style is much more evident today. A lot of the interplay needs sharpening up as it’s not quite coming off when it matters but signs are there. #nufc

Strangely intrigued to see how MJ approaches the double header. Howe always did two separate XIs and kids on the bench. Somehow catching fans off guard who would main they didn’t get to see their favourite players despite it being the same ever year. #nufc

Club issued me a partial refund because is couldn’t watch the Everton game in Ireland due to broadcast restrictions (it was televised on premier). Nice they did that without me even contacting them , but it really should have been advertised when purchasing it #nufc

I’m not gonna lose my head like some others over a friendly, I’ve seen good preseasons lead into shit seasons and vice versa. I don’t like how low energy some players still seem though. I do like the look of Johnson though, one to keep an eye on in the future I think #nufc

Hackney diving to try win pens against kids…. #nufc

Feels like a fun time to point out that Everton also don’t have any fullbacks. Both teams to come to an agreement to play no wide players and only use the vertical middle third of the pitch #nufc

Something I always looks for in a young player in pre season is the confidence to play their own game and not just taking the easy pass to a more senior player when there’s better options. In that vein I want to see more from Shahar #nufc

Fans demand to hear from the club. CEO does an interview with The Athletic. Many of those same fans call it rubbish and bullshit. Do people actually want to hear from the club or do they just want the club to say what they want to hear ? #nufc

FWIW I still love Bruno. He’s an incredibly emotional person and I believe he’s meant what he’s said over the years. In the same vein I think he took Brazil going out hard and in similar emotional fashion decided he needed to move on to try compete for big Trophies. #nufc

Anyone else find it a bit weird we have over a week between preseason friendlies ? All things considered it’s kinda worked in our favour but I don’t recall a break that long between games ever before #nufc

With Froholdts name popping up of late , the price I’m seeing quoted is very high. Got me thinking about Porto, remembered a certain Gabri Veiga is back in Europe there, having played at Al Ahli under which manager 🤔just a thought #nufc

This summers ability to throw up negativity everytime the general mood threatens to become positive is nothing short of remarkable 😅 #nufc

I don’t know what it says but I’ve been fairly numb to this summer. Despite everything I’m oddly still optimistic about the season ? #nufc

When’s the last time we had a normal summer ? #nufc

Assuming he progresses as hoped AND stays with us long term. It’s worth noting Sean Steur is young enough to qualify as homegrown at the club for UEFA competitions after 3 years. #nufc

Talk last season that if we’d not been in the UCL but instead UEL or UECL we’d have signed young prospects (like this summer) to bulk up the squad instead of trying to improve the XI for the CL. Can’t help but feel we’d be better off now if we’d done that regardless, felt so at the time too #nufc

Unfortunate consequence of wanting to do business quietly that the news that tends to leak out is negative. i.e teams pursuing our players , or incomings leaking early by Agents or selling clubs which ultimately get hijacked because that’s what they’re hoping will happen #nufc

I get it’s frustrating we’ve missed on players but do we have to pretend we haven’t signed anyone? Sure the 3 young prising lads we have signed for the first team are buzzing seeing fans say that nobody who’s any good wants to play for us #nufc

When you see the likes of Manzambi and Munoz playing out in public , but Toure and Steur signing basically out of nowhere. You do wonder how many other players we’ve missed out on without a shitstorm on social media because the parties involved have been professional #nufc same for other clubs 🤷‍♂️

Rogue from the Athletic #nufc

I think the approach we’re taking this summer is arguably what we should have done in the first summer of the new ownership. However we were led by the enthusiasm of Stavely which delivered in the short term but long term was unsustainable. Think this summer might represent a reset of sorts #nufc

With so many senior players leaving and Mileys leadership being spoken about last season I wouldn’t surprised to see him made club captain very soon #nufc

Jesus this summer. Can’t have a run of positivity without something going wayward and setting everyone off again. If Bruno has asked to leave , I’m really disappointed as he’s gone out of his way to give every impression he never would #nufc

If Ross Wilson wants to let me wake up to another “Here We Go” I’d be cool with that #nufc

I think the club made it clear they wouldn’t sell unless it was on their terms. Sold Tonali for astronomical money , he didn’t kick up a fuss. For me honestly as long as he doesn’t go to a select few clubs I couldn’t care less his reasons for wanting the move he’s good with me 🤷‍♂️ #nufc

I wonder if the club thanking Hoffenheim for their professionalism is in the Toure deal is a veiled dig at other parties leaking transfer dealings with us ? whether agents or other clubs. #nufc

The fact arsenals “bid” came through intermediaries makes me feel even more this is about contract negotiations. Intermediaries acting on BG’s behalf (more likely his agents) go to Arsenal and say “he’s available for 55”, of course Arsenal are interested at that price. Now Agent has leverage #nufc

I feel like the “expectation” that Tonali leaves from Newcastle insiders is more based on the belief that someone will see value in the asking price. However on the outside and based on the current market it’s hard to see who will. It’s a hard one to call at the minute for me #nufc
