Match thread - Stoke v NUFC

[Graw]

Never confident in attacks when Murphy is involved, I know he's young etc etc

I'm sorry but he's ****

[Somebodys pinched my sombrero]

Clark man!

Ritchie... The new James Milner?

What a miss. Not sure how no card for Allen just now after his pull on Atsu. We’re making chances. Having agreed with the general mood on the board after the Brighton game I am now tending to agree with the comments that some on here are looking to be negative for negative’s sake. We’re playing infinitely better than Saturday, give the lads a chance and try and enjoy the game.

Murphy really is awful.

Wouldn't even say he's young at 22. At that stage a player should have demonstrated he's done enough to be starting most weeks, and then becoming consistent, and as a forward player scoring and making assists. Murphy didn't even do that in the Championship, yet we paid £12M for him.

Agree, I'm watching this and I'm happy. We are up for it, trying to score and looking like we might.

[beatski]

[Toondes]

[Graw]

I don't think Murphy has beaten the first man yet

He's absolutely s**** mate

[Mbemba You're a Womble]

Only time Murphy gets a cross in, he puts it in when nobody is in the box.

[beatski]

Adam has got Darlow's number like

[beardface]

Get Murphy off for Gayle at half time, Atsu can go on the wing.

[beatski]

Merino on for Diame too

I think he’s within his rights to expect his teamates to be busting a bollock to get in to the six yard box there. Yes he should look up but when he does he should be able to see some blue shirts.
