Have we progressed this season in terms of 1. tactics and in-game flexibility, 2. player output/desire 3. confidence, 4. apparent patterns of play, 5. fitness, 6. results? It's obvious Jaissle needs time but I'm not seeing any such improvement. Only 6. is down to transfers out/SCR. #nufc

Mavic wheels presumably? Classic box section rims rather than some modern plastic tosh? How about some of the classic Campag C-Record Delta Brakes? What could possibly go wrong? 🤣

Just feels like we're pinning all our hopes on some very average looking players. I hope leaders and winners emerge from this upheaval but, bugger me..there's not much sign of that at present.

Relied heavily on the rat. Never replaced the rat. Can't score. Fucked.

100%. Lack of confidence and certainty in positioning and movements stands out a mile.

Forgive me if it's a bit obvious but get The Rider by Tim Krabbe if you want an idea of what goes on in the head of a proper bike racer. Fiction but an excellent (and essential) read.

Start the day as you mean to go on, eh? I can only assume you're a disgruntled customer who feels he's not getting value for money from his subscription, right? No one makes you read this you know.

You forgot binning off carbon reduction policies for new homes. At what point do they pivot to complete climate change denial? Pandering to the right without saying the unsayable.

Indeed. The tax system is transactional and for years in England it has felt like taxes go up to pay for higher borrowing costs, all against the backdrop of Brexit, tory austerity etc. If people can see real, tangible benefits in terms of costs of living, tax rises/restructuring are easier to accept

Yep. It's certainly a higher bar for some rather than others. How many weeks/months did Masters procrastinate over PIF's takeover? Given they've previously approved Shinawatra and Owen Oyston amongst others, its fairly transparent what's going on. City owners need to go but they won't.

As the Premier League has a 'fit and proper persons test' for new owners, is there a review process if current owners do bad things? Asking for a friend. #shampagnesupernova #nufc

Enjoyed a pint at a Union Berlin pre-season game last year. Didn't really add a lot for me. Too much faff with deposits for plastic cups and where to put it afterwards. They're too civilised to chuck it about over there. The Box Park crew hoying 8 quid beer around can do one. No thanks.

It's more what he didn't do. He was never front page on the red tops thanks to his potty mouth, calling players out for fights, massive public huffy fits etc... he brought professionalism and dignity to a role that has been sadly lacking (SBR aside) in recent times. Hope he's doing well #nufc

ONE player from outside the big 6 in the top 25 (MGW). It's getting more and more polarized.

We had a break in Haarlem near Amsterdam a few years back. My young son at the time said (about 30 minutes off the ferry)..'It's like Britain but nicer'. Now the Netherlands has it's own issues with migration but quality of life just felt so much better and people more civilised with each other.

I recall Barcelona fans saying the same thing about Gordon recently. Are players' egos too big for them to actually perfect basic techniques? Look how Olise, Barcola or Szoboszlai strike a ball. Apart from maybe Barnes, we are powder-puff. #nufc

The blueprint for seeing games out is Barca at SJP last season. Gordon scored late to make it 1-2 but they managed the last 10 by playing keep-ball and completely took the sting out of the team and crowd. It's not easy but far more sustainable than Alamo stuff. #nufc

That's like putting a Ming Vase on the bar in Rosie's. He's a good modern full back. Just too fragile.

Is it just me or is the SJP grass on the long side? Thiaw in particular keeps under hitting passes. Could be Mr Vertical's instructions of course. #nufc #NEWHUL

Ryder's hopeless. Tino had a well publicised calf injury in the summer. He's literally got one club to report on and about 25 players. #nufc

I'd rather play them when we have a settled line up and system and they are knackered by playing in 3/4 competitions. Wishful thinking...

True. Pardo is lightweight for the prem but will be a decent wide forward. Other than than...nothing. Osula may improve but he's lower end prem quality at present and I have no clue what Wissa is supposed to be. We can't play the way Jaissle wants without a focal point.

Fair. We lack the ability to spend £200m on forwards and spend it well. Chelsea just keep throwing the dice til they get a six though. We had one shot to spend well, panicked and blew it.

We'll certainly know more about Jaissle as a coach after tonight. That's the exciting bit in some ways. Under Howe (last season), we'd have huffed and puffed, he'd make a couple of subs too late and we'd lose by a couple of goals. Leeds are a really solid team. Should be a good game. #nufc

The controversy over the offside masked the absolute criminal defending here. No left back in sight and leaving Haaland completely unmarked. Deserved it.
