Match Thread | Newcastle vs Man City (13/01/24)

[I'm Blue]

COME ON CITY!!!
Maybe a Kev masterclass can get us 3 points.

 

[Keeper!]

Nunes is a mard arse

Has pace and we need some on the pitch

 

[Brewster's millions]

The worry for this team this season is when we collapse we don't half collapse.

It's all a bit...Arsenal like.

We’ve beaten some poor teams over the past month and people think we’re back to normal.

We haven’t been right all season and tonight is no different

 

[yankblue]

Kev for Kova. Swap Ake/Gvardiol and bring on Jack for Doku so we shore up that left side cause they're killing us there. Let's get weird. C'mon City

Imagine your captain of the team being your worst player

Maguire says Hi

 

[Bluemoonadam]

Don't you think every team we play is like that - even Huddersfield last week ffs.

Yes I do , maybe you should tell pep that. And tbh not all teams do liverpool don't against us.

 

[ID70]

Walker has been fantastic for us the number of times bailing us out in games,but his head isn’t right with the off field shit and he should have been benched..

That’s surely on Pep then as he picks the team

For 6 years, yes. This season, hell no.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

I don’t think Pep expected Newcastle to be proficient on the break. Otherwise he would have started Grealish over Doku.

Why would he not expect a great counter attacking team to be great on the counter? They have Almiron, Isak and Gordon. It’s made for transitions.

 

[ctwrd]

Probably end in a draw.

It might look ok tonight but it won’t be enough to win the league.

See ya at the start of next season then.

 

[Gazza]

Thought he's having a decent game myself

He is, but he's better than decent.

 

[bluemc1]

Means nowt if your defence is shite.

Usually means a constant flow of breaking records and winning trophies

 

[Beanhead]

Come on you blue boys.

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

Come on city

 

[colorado blue]

Anyone take another 3-3 now?

 

[come-on-barney]

Difficult transitional season. We seem to have bought players to play a more expansive style, yet that doesn’t seem to have worked, with some of the incumbents uncomfortable with the extra openness and some of the new ones uncomfortable playing the trusted possession style. Means we get games that can be comfortable one moment and uncomfortable the next.

I really hope this isn't transitional with the window we just had. Need to go big in the summer.

 

[warringtonblue]

Mate there’s so much time left in the season. Even if we lose tonight I’d still fancy us.

Based on what exactly?

 

[TheBlueCat]

I have read some shit on here, but here's your biscuit

You make very little sense and are now talking about biscuits. My debate with you is over.

 

[super_city_si]

No changes. Awesome. Well be the 3-1 down before we know it

 

[jamesha]

Shit officiating has had a big effect on the game. Hopefully Kev is as pissed off as I am and comes on with 30 to go.
