Newcastle Post Match

Status
Not open for further replies.
Several times during today it'd flash up in my mind that we lost to Newcastle yesterday and I'd get really pissed off for the moment. Its such a weak loss
Tell me about it - I almost feel like crying. Lots of abuse from work colleagues today at the office, but high praise for our manager and what he said regarding the game and our performance.
 
Often wondered if I'd prefer to start a season brilliantly and be miles ahead by Xmas/ Jan or play catch up and inexorably whittle a lead down.

I say "prefer", I meant which is more likely to result in winning the title.

Obviously everyone remembers Newcastle's capitulation, but is that an anomaly? If you build up a BIG lead (like Chelsea last season) you usually win it anyway?

Didn't Arsenal have such a lead that bookies paid out on them only for Utd to win it?
 
There are one two legitimate superstitions on 6CM that can influence a game.
  • JJ's use of Old Faithful
  • Oncy getting his dick out
The rest are just words on a computer screen.
How about Red Astaire touching his 'pig'?

I'm sorry to say this, but Lady Luck may dance to those tunes but she gets mighty uppity when poster's show over confidence and pedel ridiculous scorelines.
 
Now that the depression period after a loss is over for most of us (hopefully), here is a good analysis of what went wrong. They are not kind to Klopp's selection and tactics:

Agreed that it was a match lost in midfield. Wheter or not it was a deserved victory for Newcastle is another question. They had 1 shot on target and that was the 2nd goal.
They said themselves that they were nervous as were the crowd. Shame we werent set up to press them high and get an early goal.
Hopefully Klopp wont play Lucas and Allen together ever again.
 
The combinations didn't look right from the start but it doesn't explain why the whole fucking lot of them played so crap.

I don't know what to make of Firmino. Some class moments but his general play is Garcia-like in terms of constantly giving the ball away but without any of the Luis goals and assists. Him & Benteke are on a completely different wavelength, they need to have time to work together to build a partnership but we can't afford that luxury with so many games.

If there's one thing I am sure about, it's that Milner isn't worth his place in the side. He's shockingly bad and as soon as Henderson & Coutinho return, Milner should be benched until he's got his game back.

Not necessarily. When he was moved back into the deeper CM role against Newcastle, not only he but the team as a whole improved. On that basis either Allen or Lucas should make way before he does.

Yeah, when Henderson is back I would play Can, Henderson and Milner in a midfield three. I'm pretty sure Milner can play the same role Lucas does, except better

It would be interesting to see him there. We looked much better when he moved in central on Sunday.
Lucas and Allen must never happen again.

If the Benteke had scored, we would have destroyed them.
 
Jordon Ibe's performance brought back memories of Jermaine Pennant's night in Athens.

Milner ran more than anyone else on the ground according to the stats I saw. Give the cunt a blue peter badge.

And that big scoper Benteke can eat a fucking dick. Useless sack of pure ball shite. He's like the striker version of Dejan Lovren.
