Newcastle United (A) | Post Match thread

[M12Blue]

Why no changes in that last 20 minutes

Because we were on a roll

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Newcastle played really well but we were awful, still not up to speed.
Worst performance I've seen from Kyle Walker, terrible.
Andy Hincliffe, what a cock!

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Great game that. Can't say I enjoyed all of it but exciting nonetheless.

 

[Gray]

Defence absolutely shocking today, all 3 out of 10 performance. Attacking wise we were better but it was an off day. All credit to Newcastle they deserved a piunt

Was that a pint or a punt they deserved

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Good game of football

confused at where Walker was supposed t be playing

wide open at times today

 

[LongsightM13]

Defensive and coaching shocker
Take the point and the wake up call and move on

 

[moomba]

We were poor but showed a lot of character to get back into the game.

Players have licence to kick our players again this season it seems.

 

[vmsuhail]

Happy with the point after it looked like a loss. We're getting good at comebacks. Zero substitutions as all of them were good in the second half.

 

[Blu1]

Incredible to come back like we did but generally very poor. Crazy tactics gave them confidence. Lack of subs just bizarre.

Take the draw as we could of been hammered during that

I don’t want one of our players going Barcelona mid week especially after that

 

[Saddleworth2]

Haaland played very well

 

[nmc]

Good point when you are 3 - 1 down. Sky coverage has been very poor - they could not be more anti City if they tried. May as well have Ant and Dec commentating.

 

[christened at st marks]

Why no changes in that last 20 minutes

Errrm! because we need 5 subs as Pep kept telling us for the past 2 years

 

[Gumzy97]

I'll take that Newcastle will be trouble for other teams this season. A point gained.

 

[Main Stand Hotdog]

I'll take that. A lot of our rivals will struggle there this season.

Happy with how we came back in to it. Haaland is a beast. Looked a bit leggy towards the end so hopefully that'll help our fitness.

 

[Burtonblue]

I’m knackered

 

[nickamon]

Foden shite another chance to square it and he didn’t. Like I said we didn’t have a striker we kept crossing now we have a striker and can’t cross. I also don’t understand the no subs part. Just confusing with Alvarez and mahrez on the bench surely they could have helped

Agree on Foden, again. I’m ok with no subs, with the players on the field we were still creating chances right up to the game. Just the keeper had a blinder and on a different day we would have scored.

 

[svennis pennis]

Despite us losing our focus we should have won that game.

We struggled to deal with one of their players and the pace he has essentially.

Fair few of our players a mile off it, Foden had a shocker and we had a habit of hospital balls for a while as well.

Not the worst result all things considered. Haaland was beginning to really dominate that match until their play acting.

Side note, Almiron was utter shite despite all the foaming of the media, he fell into that ball which just about sums up his career at Newcastle.

 

[discopop]

Upside we got out with a point, downside Phil needs a right kick up the arse again. Norse god three in three and he’s going to get many, many more.

 

[Damanino]

awful defending overall, Pep should have helped Rodri and Walker by stability in the middle, we were run over so many times.

still we had the chances to win, Foden didnt pass it in to Haaland and Haaland missed a sitter (Pope was really good overall) and Haaland also hit the post

at least we did not lose, was planning to have 9 points and with better defending we could have done it today. lets hope Chelsea &Pool wont have it easy at St James park later on.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

2 points dropped woeful today
