Match Thread | Newcastle vs. Manchester City (22/11/25)

Not liked we'd score a penalty anyway, it's the Foden chance that's unforgivable

which one of 2

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

Not scoring today

You’ve got no chance, you’re not even in the squad

 

[roach3]

Don’t mind physicality in a game but there has to be levels at some point
Schaar should have a yellow, Bruno for his blatant dive, joelinton should have his customary yellow by now, Phil should have got a penalty
Also should have one for the handball
And Bernie was not offside.

 

[HelloCity]

Not sure on tje penalties, foden had already shot then got wiped out, not sure if you mean the handball one as well? If so I think we may have had a case on that one

So?

Does that mean you can walk around hitting people off the ball without a foul being given?

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Foden had to score that chance. 2 thirds of the goal to put the ball in and drags it wide!!

Should be 2.2 with the chances both sides have created.

Need to slow the game down a bit and stamp our authority on it. Frustrate them, then nick a goal.

 

[Sky Blue]

Matchday live on City tv have Rob Lee and Steve Howey as pundits. Pathetic!

 

[PragueBlue]

Weird half that. Could easily be 4-4 with the chances both teams have had. Yet we go in at 0-0.

They've pressed us well and it has caused us to make a few rash decision and be a bit too rushed with the ball instead of our usual control.

All players have had their moments with Doku perhaps being the standout but it has been a fairly even game. Cherki is lovely to watch but he has to learn there is a time and places for tricks and flicks.

I think if we can tighten up at the back a bit and calm ourselves down on the ball, instead of trying to rush it, then we should win this.

 

[MCFC1993]

We’ve got a stronger bench than them, so hopefully that’ll be the difference later on.

They've got 3 players just back from injury, you have to think they'll tire and we'll get more chances.

 

[deano ou812]

Don’t care but the whole outcry over that goal or non goal (2 weeks ago)has definitely had an effect,the officials we get nothing most of the time but they are giving us fuck all..

 

[Protein Junkie]

Dribbling?

Signed for Everton this season.

 

[SamBlue]

Let's just hope it has been our poor half, otherwise....

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Cherki off Reijnders On

 

[Blue-Ghana]

Our midfield is mediocre now; this game could go either way.

 

[spacecadet]

3 Pens not given in the 1st 21 mins, Foden scared to death, we really need some bottle in the midfield to give it them back late tackles everywhere not 1 booking

Yes Blue, I am a full advocate of City clogging. Always have been, we never seem to do enough of it?

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Regardless of pens, you cannot miss chances like Haaland and Foden did. Foden’s was a fucking shocker.

They missed easy ones too though.

 

[MCFC1993]

No Pope doesn't do well, he's in pissing no mans land.

 

[Gesario]

Luckily he makes up for it with outstanding saves - which is more important ;)

Loved Eddie so don’t dive in but he doesn’t make the saves Donna has

 

[TShed]

Fuck off Richards

 

[city5189]

They are a big physical team Newcastle but we're more than matching them, I'd bring stones on for cherki and push Phil further forward.
Is rodri in the squad??

 

[axlgod]

Hope pep turns into a fucking vampire at half time & fucking juices up, ripping limbs everywhere.
