Match Thread | Newcastle vs Man City (19/12/21)

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Any decent team punishes us today for the poor decision making and execution.

Zin and Mahrez have been horrible, just horrible.

Rodri gonna get sent off if he doesn't get legs closer to him.

Spread right through the team, they don't know where to go when the ball isn't allowed to go out wide early.

Drop Bernie further back because Kev is offering zero cover.

Amazing goal from Cancelo but Newcastle are making it physical.

There was blatant elbow incident into Jesus stomach that should have been a red and wasn't even commented on.

Not scoring four or five against this lot should be considered a bad result.

The fuck is Jermain Defoe doing on a City-Newcastle game?!

Probably going to mention his record against us soon enough lol

You have to wonder if ex City player tell them to fuck off when(lol) they call asking them to do a game.

I hadn’t realised there was crowd. Just assumed it was behind closed doors.

Can't be true as I'm sure the accepted media bollocks is that Newcastle fans are the most loyal and vociferous on the globe (apart from when Liverpool play at home). 50,000+ every week for the last 75+ years, even when their capacity was less.

Is there any chance a Mod can start updating the score in the thread title? It would be useful for those of us without streams who are lazy and only checking in every now and then.

They are too busy having fag break...

The fuck is Jermain Defoe doing on a City-Newcastle game?!

To be fair he said pre kick off he loves watching us play. So he's on a final warning.

 

[Petetheblu]

We look absolutely mentally knackered.

Hopefully we can go on and get the win.

 

[Paul1970]

Jesus sterling Mahrez zincenko have have poor and the only reason kdb is not on that list is that he has made a few decent passes . Ederson has also got a big mistake in him today and the only reason that wasn’t a penalty is because cancelo had already took the ball away . Can’t win 7-0 eveyweek though . These will score i think .

 

[kun]

he was coached by Howe, I believe

Carragher - no relation to the game
Redknapp - no relation to the game
Defoe - no relationship to either team but knows one of the managers

 

[Claytop]

Zinch having a shocker.

Defoe, Redknapp and Carragher?? Fuck off Sky.

At spurs stadium for their game ..

 

[Father Paul]

Didn't know he was playing

Must have been watching a different match he was as obvious as the invisible man. Sterling and Mahrez poor also. Eddie was lucky VAR was taking one of its tea breaks he has been poor all round. Cancelo's little bit of magic brightened up a dismal first half display. Would like to see more effort from the boys in the second 45.

 

[Brodymcfc]

Newcastle are playing well, city have been coasting with flashes of individual brilliance.

think pep will sort them out for the second half

 

[BlueAnorak]

Ederson was doing his job, already committed. Ball was cleared by a third party, no intention to heart anyone, physically cannot stop but the Newcastle player keeps running at him.
A penalty for that would have been stupid

Surprised Newcastle didn't get a pen though.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Carragher has cracked. He knows we’re not playing well, so the Newcastle errors have really gotten to him.

 

[lonestay]

Well played Jamie redknob gotta "Trent" reference in there while describing cancelos goal .

 

[Bill the Blue]

As per usual, every tackle by us equates to a booking..

That lump Joelinton has committed 5 or 6 fouls now, not a card in sight..

That tw*t Richie, shoved Jesus in the back then his momentum took him into the advertising hoarding..

Should have dislodged a few of his newly paid for teeth the cheating ****..!

 

[N1985]

2 nil up with pretty much zero effort. I imagine they exert more energy in training. Mint.

 

[mat]

Father Reuben or Rodney will be giving Christmas off by Atkinson.

Barcodes desperate to get them sent off.

Cancello man of the first half for me.

 

[Gabriel]

There are always games when we are playing at about 65% capacity and looking to be conserving energy, but that’s harder to do against a Newcastle side that is generally more physical and willing to battle. Against Liverpool, they pulled everyone into their own half and defended about two bands of grass deeper than they are today.

 

[DruntBlunt]

No, put him where he plays best

Has he EVER had a good game on the left?
