The blusky translation isn't great, any clarity on what we think it means?

A point on the midfield being ran or played through easily: the same thing happened a lot playing with a 3 in the last couple of seasons and they were "the best in the league" supposedly. Not saying we should stick to 4-2-3-1, but just blaming the system and changing it might not be the answer.

Last night was a terrible result, but I don't necessarily disagree with what they said

"No malice at all in that challenge from either" I don't know how Willock could maliciously get someone to climb on his back and nearly kick him in the head. #NUFC

Haven't read the article (not having my eyes attacked by the awful Chronicle website) but why are we acting as if Burn would ever be first choice left back here? It's not even his proper position

The idea of "We're not here to be popular, we're here to compete." while being absolute cunts to play against that season. Miss that team.

I think the wider point is people get way too hung up on numbers on a page when they don't really mean that much in a game as it will be fluid depending on the situation/personnel. Does my head in when people automatically assume 3 at the back is ultra defensive for example.

Re: changing system, when he said no in the press conference I don't think he meant that as the 4231 is "sacrosanct". What he was saying is focusing on changing system after a bad result is the wrong approach because the system doesn't really matter, it's the principles of play and that won't change

Even if we do end up losing today, I don't get why everyone is shitting themselves about playing Hull at home as if it was prime Guardiola Man City away with Aguero in top form

I'm glad as a fanbase we've moved on from the boring insistence that 4-3-3 doesn't work to the boring insistence that 4-2-3-1 doesn't work #NUFC

Way of the world innit. Everything is the absolute extreme it can be. No acknowledgement that players can just be in a bit of bad form.

Yeah, I'd hope not too. With Bamba I always thought it was going to be a problem with us signing too many midfielders and not letting Willock go. Toure is an odd one, though he wasn't great in the last round tbf

I don't think there has been a good one since 10. 12 was ok, but the others have been pretty poor. (Caveat that I haven't played the MMO ones)

They might add something valuable to the squad, but the fact we've turned down over £30m for Murphy and Willock is nuts

This is EXACTLY my view. I wish before anyone generated some "funny" AI meme, there was a message giving information about how much water it had taken, what the carbon emissions were etc. I don't need to see fake AI pictures of Sandro Tonali crying. Just get a photo of his actual face. #nufc

You're forgetting our tried and tested ultimate back up plan, Jacob Murphy at right back 🙃

Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
Definitely needs to be more aggressive in the box, there was one header he just didn't challenge for and if he did it would have been a good chance. I did notice him trying to get in the box more though but no one tried to find him. First half he was free at the back post and Murphy hit first man

Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
The stats say he completed 20/22 passes, won 4/5 duels, and had 1/1 successful dribbles. Maybe it's different with the eye test, but I don't remember seeing him giving the ball away as much as people seem to think he did.

Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
If Willock had scored that chance early on we'd be talking about what a brilliant assist it was and how he's exactly what we need to unlock a defence. But a lot of people have already decided he "doesn't fit" so he will never be good enough for them.
120
Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
The stats have him completing 20/22 passes, winning 4/5 duels and his one dribble as successful over the full match. I don't think he gave the ball away as much as people think he did, and I can only remember it happening twice
010
Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
People are saying even his touch was bad tonight but I can only think of twice he lost the ball. One was a hard one to control on the edge of the box, one was a wall pass to Willock who had moved - it happens. He needs to get stronger, more aggressive, and complain more about refs giving nothing.
000
Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
Tonight I thought he was trying to get in the box more but no one was finding him. One cross got close and he does need to be more aggressive in that situation, but most of the time they weren't even passing to him in build up around the box. Early on they did and we saw the chance he created.
100
Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
Maybe I just don't want to see it, but I really don't get how much criticism he's getting tonight. Was he amazing? No. Was he worse than the rest of our forwards (excluding Barnes)? No. Absolutely he lacks pace for fast attacks, but we won't always be doing that.

Martin Wigham @mw147.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
I don't think he's been that bad. Did well to set Willock up and a couple of passes that have gone astray I felt were more others running/not running where they should have. Nothing going towards him in the box too. Maybe I'm grasping at straws wanting it to work though 🤷🏻
