@YewChooba @MattScotney You could argue Bruno was 1 of our top players, the others were not our top players, I don't know why everyone keeps saying that. They didn't perform and didn't want to be here. Probably a bit toxic too. It was obvious we would be better without them.

@Sean16340949 @MattScotney Exhausted, it was inevitable. He gave everything to our club.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@MattScotney He was incredible, when you work as hard as he does you will at some point become exhausted. He gave 110% and had nothing left.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@grahamcrosby Either just protecting his players in front of the media or completely cracked. Maybe both.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@agbnufc_ Continuing from my other comments, we only done what had to be done and people talked like we bought mugs, we bought exciting young talent from some top clubs and still had good players who want to be here. I knew we would be competitive.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@agbnufc_ Said all summer, how can people say we ripped the heart out of the team, how can they say we sold our best players. You could maybe that about Bruno, Tripps had given everything he had. The other 2 underperformed and didn't want to be here. EH was exhausted.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@NorthBankNadim Wow! He is NOTHING like Arteta. If he starts acting like him I'm sure a lot of us will be the first to admit it and I think he's clever enough to know we wouldn't like him acting like Arteta. However of course I'm biased. I love our club!

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@MI_Nufc I think your all mad talking about the "losses" having players who don't want to be at the club and who underperformed last season would of been a good thing? You're all cracked!

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@ApexTuggzii @CraigHope_DM You may have a point

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@HwtlNufc No, because of the money. Maybe the footballing side but it's the extra money. I think he can be lazy at times anyway.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@Yemzine No, Arteta is a cry baby

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@Seelsya_ He has the look of a man who knows he's got something special on his hands, time will tell but I love what I've seen so far.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@swedjournalist @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC Also I questioned you talking about Arsenal because Arsenal didn't really do anything "the right way" they didn't have to build the way Man City and Chelsea did because they were already huge. There's 3 clubs always been at the top in my lifetime Liverpool Man utd and Arsenal.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@IzzyStar17 @ethncrsn I did too, he was brilliant today

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@NUFC @AnthonyElanga I told everyone not to write us off

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@cardonaDel8 @CraigHope_DM Couldn't have said it better

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@kylaris94 @CraigHope_DM The striker who hasn't performed for you yet? He looks lazy at times to me, he might rediscover his old form but he hasn't yet.

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@CraigHope_DM *best

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@CraigHope_DM We lost our beat players? You all keep saying that. No, we lost 2 players who under performed last season, didn't want to be here and Bruno who as good as he is, was rarely great away from home and also didn't want to be here!

[Brian Petch @brian_petch]

@CraigHope_DM You keep talking like the summer was such a nightmare, all the media. Those players we got rid of didn't perform last year and didn't want to be here, EH as great as he was, he was clearly exhausted. The changes HAD to happen!
