Here’s the thoughts of #NUFC Twitter...

@NUFC360 – “The slowest team we must’ve fielded in years. And I’m not sure where the goals will come from. I worry.”

@Mark74NUFC – “That’s worse the the Gullit ‘resignation letter’ selection.”

@agbnufc_ – “Please just win.”

@NUFCBrace – “Genuinely believe we've fielded stronger teams in the championship..."

@ChrisHWhiting – “When is Jeff Hendrick ever the answer.”

@russting93 – “Joelinton can't score and still starts. We start with 10 men every game.”
