@jchaytor16 – “Notice how we didn't use Joelinton as a target man tonight and he actually played well? Dropping deep to link the play, this is how we should've been using him since we signed him!”

@stevenufc3 – “Another lucky win for Bruce again.”

@matthewcairnss – “Not to get ahead of myself like but we are definitely gonna win the Carabao Cup.”

@jasoncubbage – “#NUFC changed their opponent level to ‘amateur’ for a much needed self esteem boost. Unfortunately the opponent level will revert back to ‘professional’ on Sunday against Spurs.”
