So Newcastle (Premier League)

[Farkmaster]

I'm gonna slap anyone who starts dissing Mario in their post-match analysis.

He's put in the effort but he's getting utter shite service. How do you expect anyone to score when we keep playing one-twos in the back ?!

Today's one of Mario's better games.

Agreed

 

[i_rushie]

Hah. Someone put Johnson out of his misery. Shite cross.

 

[My_Blood_Bleeds_Red]

Unbelievable.

We're 1-0 down and we're still playing at pedestrian pace.

 

[Oncy]

Embarrassing this.
Mr Rodgers what are ya gonna do?

This isnt good enough.

 

[Athens]

I suspect that Suarez had been putting something in the powerade. Now he's gone and no one knew he was doing it the team is shit.

 

[Athens]

That was a fucking fowl.

 

[Athens]

That was a fucking fowl.

Or was it a foul?

 

[Holle]

Or was it a foul?

Don't knou.

 

[Athens]

Don't knou.

It was certainly an illegal challenge.

 

[My_Blood_Bleeds_Red]

2 mins on the clock and we get a goalkick.

What do we do ? We try to pass it out from the back.

How retarded is that ?!

 

[RedStar]

We just cant keep going like this. Its time to go with 2 up front and drop Gerrard, he just doesnt have the energy to be effective in a midfield trying to use the ball quickly. Johnson needs to go too, the sort of shite hes been serving up on a weekly basis for several years now is just not acceptable. Ive written this season off, too many average players in the squad, its not going to happen.

 

[Hansern]

The worst thing is they didnt look like scoring all 2nd half and then we gift them a goal.
You dont take 2 touches in your own 6 yard box.

Awful. Really reall awful attacking play and it doesnt look like anyone is interested.

Top 4? No chance

 

[Holle]

Over and out.

This is unbelievably shit.

 

[Whirly]

You wonder why we're struggling to push forward, and then look at how inept our back line is at bringing the ball forward.

Lovren: Consistently trying to do too much playing hollywood balls, making ridiculous runs, and misplacing passes into midfield
Moreno: Bombing forward, but we don't expect possession from him.
Skrtel: Occasionally good passing, but often just passes to the next man to avoid taking the risk.
Johnson: Ugh

This is where we miss having Sakho/Agger the most I think. For all their other frailties, at least you could have attacks created by your CBs.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Fucking hell that was brutal.

Lovren is now our worst cb. Abysmal.

Gerrard needs go be binned off pronto and we need 2 up top.

 

[Markeh]

So basically Brendan finished the match with 3 strikers who probably wouldn't have gotten near the first team last season, not criticising the strikers just the plan, is that it? Just throw strikers on Steve McClaren style hoping it works.

It all looks a bit of a mess.

 

[jexykrodic]

Two wins, two draws and a defeat in the last 5 League games.

Inconsistent to say the least, hurry up Studge.

Just Real Madrid and Chelsea next week.

I see very little good movement throughout the side but certainly in midfield ahead of the back four. Since it often stays quite flat, and players face it to receive a pass everything has been incredibly conservative. I think it would be regardless of who you had in there.

 

[OLD_Lewy]

rodgers needs sacking

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

One of the worst games I've seen us play.
Rodgers without Suarez seems a little lost. At this point, I've got to say that he's at fault for our form and he's busy blaming the players mistakes.

 

[mark1975]

Bye bye Mr John.

 

[ibromurph]

Lovren is looking a car crash right now.

Johnson is crap.

Hendo and Allen are technically a level below top class and it shows with their lack of creativity and need to take an extra touch.

Gerrard is old but trying and shows glimspes of class.

Balotelli is our version of Giroud. He won't create anything by himself. He needs a partner or capable midfield runners to support.

 

[RedStar]

rodgers needs sacking

And replacing with who?

 

[cloggypop]

It is time to get back to basics. We need @redhorizon2 starting the match threads.

Cheers.

 

[Markeh]

how many coats is Andy Cole wearing?

 

[gene hughes]

Crisis!

 

[Whirly]

Lovren/Johnson are actually actively hindering our attacking options by constantly wasting possession.

I wouldn't start either for a few matches. It's absurd.

 

[jexykrodic]

I'll say it again: 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in our last five league games.

Hurry back Studge.

 

[My_Blood_Bleeds_Red]

I don't want to sack Brodgers yet.

But England needs to sack Hodgson.

It's all his fault.

 

[Red Mullet]

I suspect you're a closet ginger RED MULLET!

Nope, I'm parasite free - black hair going white.
