So is your point that if Roy was still here and we’d had Eze and Olise available, We’d still have beaten Liverpool and played West Ham & Newcastle off the park?

Amazing performance well done all round!

This team reminds me of the way we played for the forst 6 months of Vieira reign. Winning the ball high up, pressure on the ball, giving us more time attacking and playing more entertaining football. The difference is that it was reliant on a high energy Gallagher. When he went off boil, so did we. Glasners somehow managed to get all players involved and we are no longer reliant on one player anymore. And that's why this will last. Munoz has allowed the team to play differently.. if there's one player that makes this system work its him, We really need to find wingback cover this summer. Great performances all over the pitch tonight. Aagree that Clyne and Hughes look reborn and no ones moaned about Mitchell for ages!!

Such a good feeling to actually want to watch the games again!
10th place here we come. COYP!

Saw this on the newcastle forum:

"Their midfield were better than us. The albino ran the show, even against Bruno which just should not be.. but here we are."

That made me laugh! I guess Hughes can take that as a compliment.

On the whole the Newcastle forum were very complimentary of us.

Honestly I'm suprised how sh1t they were after all the media hype about their new ownership and everything and finishing top 4 last season - they look very average. Bruno Guimares was their only standout player...

Possibly. Possibly not.

There seems to be a tendency to see thing in simple terms on the football threads.
Of course the manager has an impact, but the players kick the ball. They are the more important side of the equation.

This is all about an I told you so attitude regarding Roy Hodgson.
People will frame it how they want, but what is most important is that we have our two flair players available and the team reinvigorated.

I disagree Hrolf. Glasner has transformed us not as a team but as a squad. He is using different players and tactics to suit whose available, who we are playing and how our players are generally re fitness. It is all very carefully measured and the outcome is what we are all witnessing.
It's mind blowing and it's largely down to Glasner. There is no way this would be happening if Roy was still in charge. All the players are fitter, more motivated and on fire. Ask them, they will tell you. You can see they are loving it.
Glasner is truly inspirational.

They looked like that because we made them look like that. We outplayed them Just like the scousers and spammers. We are starting to look awesome.
