Newcastle United (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

[jimharri]

The fuckin state of the match day thread is shocking. Embarrassing really is

It's always the same. Overreactions a plenty. It'll never change.

 

[Blu3m00n91]

Foden just shown why he should be starting every week again. Not concerned at all tbh. It was tough here last season with Rodri and we missed some great chances. Take the point and move on

 

[CTIDANDREW]

I wouldn’t even bring Haaland to Bratislava midweek. He looked absolutely spent the last thirty minutes.
System just doesn’t work as well if we don’t have a number nine willing to make runs over the top, and work the channels.

Not having a backup for him is going to be dicey all season.

 

[I'm Blue]

Just glad to get through that without anymore injuries.
First half thugs second half divers

 

[Shuffs]

Should have won that, definitely the better team.

They really didn't cause that many issues overall and the penalty......well it wasn't was it?

 

[Ken92]

Nothing much to say ,3 draws in a row is not good enough imo, didn´t expect much from this team after i saw the line up.Fixtures getting a bit easier now ,must win games coming up .

Get used to the diving, late tackles and tactical cramping all season. Going to make a very boring season.

pathetic really

 

[Gobshiight]

Pretty fair result in the end although their goal came against the run of play.

Always a tough place to go. Anyone being over-critical needs to get some fucking perspective

 

[argyle]

Not good. Suppose we didn't lose.

It was a dive. He wasn't touched. No idea what VAR or the pundits were watching.

We're rubbish going forward without KDB creating and vulnerable at the back without Rodri.

Though we looked better when Foden came on.

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

We should have put game away at half time.

 

[ArniArason]

Pep has to take it on the chin for that today. Just because we have lost Rodri doesn't mean we are no longer champions. We went far too defensive in the line up. The subs at the end changed us but it was too late.

 

[Dial M 4 Mercer]

Breaking news, the BT commentary team have just awarded Newcastle an extra two points for their wonderful ground, fans, and atmosphere etc, etc, etc…….

 

[Gumzy97]

Midfield is a problem. Lack creativity

 

[houraisen]

Foden and Savinho should have started.

 

[RayCTID]

Did alright under the circumstances. The dodgy penalty gave the Geordies a way back in the game

 

[homerdog]

Premier League Match Centre have tweeted:

"The referee awarded a penalty for a foul by Ederson on Gordon and issued a yellow card to Ederson, deeming that his actions were a genuine attempt to play the ball but denied an obvious goal scoring opportunity.

"The VAR checked and confirmed the referee’s call of penalty and a yellow card to Ederson."

That statement is wrong on so many levels; how can these fuckers be so incompetent?

 

[CTIDANDREW]

Foden just shown why he should be starting every week again. Not concerned at all tbh. It was tough here last season with Rodri and we missed some great chances. Take the point and move on

Yep, two great chances in the last 25 minutes by Foden and Bernardo and unfortunately they both went straight at where Pope was.
That’s football.

 

[VOOMER]

Dirty team allowed to kick us early on by an excuse of a referee

 

[skillman]

Looked much better when we had attacking players on. Created chances I thought. And Bernie’s energy in midfield was needed.

Foden needs to be starting now. Especially in Kev’s absence, he’s clever and has incisive movement that we crave/miss!

 

[Gingers Dad]

Phil coming on changed the game. He has to start ahead of Gundog now.
