Pre Match - Newcastle (h) - Wed 8pm

[mom]

Salah needs to be hooked

And replace him with who. That’s the issue.

 

[rubans]

Diaz is our best player. Mo and Henderson are absolutely fucking shocking.

Is he? Maybe last game but he needa to do more.
Not seeing it, he’s dropping too far back and not helping the shape. Robbo is a mess and don’t disagree with Mo and Hendo.
Get Carvalho on…

 

[Red Bird]

I mean if one mistake is made does that mean it’s all over? Alexander Arnold was poor but Henderson and Fabinho were even more culpable!

 

[mom]

What's also a problem is his inability to make a key line breaking pass.

Honestly, it's not as bad as we're all making out.

If Thiago and Jota/Nunez were playing, we'd be fine.

I’m usually positive and give the team a break when they’re not on form, but this is half arsed crap from some of them. robbo’s corner tipped me over the edge.

 

[Tinto]

I think Elliott has been very good, and our best player, again.

He probably has been our best player but wouldn't say he's been very good. He hasn't hurt Newcastle enough with his passing or dribbling

 

[dee]

I've avoided saying this for a while but Henderson has been pretty useless

He has, but we know he’s not comfortable on the left.​

 

[MomoWASright]

Every positive thing we’ve done has Diaz’s paws all over it.

That's exactly it.

We accept risk with TAA making those cross field passes. Not always going to make it.

The problem for that goal with Fabinho and Henderson. One of them had to fill in the backline after VVD was dragged out. The other needed to press the ball. They got it wrong.

 

[tomasjj]

hendo and robbos lack of skill hampers our play

 

[Frogfish]

Van dyke lazy let isak walk in easily for the goal.

Nah. He was covering Robbo on the left touchline. It was on Fabs I'm afraid - he rushed out and left a huge gap with no CB in it.

If Thiago and Jota/Nunez were playing, we'd be fine.

I called this last year - that his 'final' pass is poor (and then he had that wonderful assist to Diaz) but I just have to make peace he's now meant to be what Milner was the last few years ... He's going to continue fading going forward unfortunately.

 

[Frogfish]

He probably has been our best player but wouldn't say he's been very good. He hasn't hurt Newcastle enough with his passing or dribbling

He and Diaz are the only ones driving us forward, Hendo, Robbo, Trent and Fabs have all been shite in that regard. Mo crap in the one on ones too - he's coughed up a lot of possession. Firmino just not involved enough at the front (bar that pass for Diaz).

 

[KopRed]

45 mins to save our season. Again?

 

[Halmeister]

A similar tune to 20/21 season where we eventually barely secured qualification - main difference being this time round, the other Big 6s are going to be much stronger.

And I doubt we can rely on Alisson to score too many more last minute winners. And all the same players are 2 years older now

 

[StevieM]

See what happens when I’m not in the ground!!!!

 

[Tinto]

Take off Bobby, bring on Fabio to play as a number 10, move Mo to the middle. 4-2-3-1

 

[tomasjj]

salah has turned shite

 

[dee]

Defo second miss now

 

[rubans]

Mo hasn’t been effective on right for a while, he he needs to play center or not at all.
Move Harvey to Mo’s position.

 

[Red Bird]

salah has turned shite

Should we have called his bluff and let him leave at end of last season, I wonder?

 

[Shay_K]

COME ON YOU RED MEN

 

[rubans]

Should we have called his bluff and let him leave at end of last season, I wonder?

Would that solved all our other issues?

 

[tomasjj]

Should we have called his bluff and let him leave at end of last season, I wonder?

after how stale he went after afcon, several of us were in doubt about that new contract, hoping someone would actually buy him

 

[Modo]

Get Tsimikas on

 

[mom]

Lol

they’re out pressing us

 

[Modo]

Also get Carvalho on

 

[mom]

Get Tsimikas on

Robbo needs benching

 

[Halmeister]

This game is done already. Could see it after 10 minutes. The derby at the weekend is gonna be grim.

 

[Markeh]

I love when the opposition look like they have an extra player

 

[dee]

I was certain that was a sitter for Robbo!
