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

Walker needs dragging off and down to marriage guidance.

He has been so casual and bad all season. Today as well. Jogging behind Gordon like he is warming up, nowhere near him near the box, never even attempted to press. Didn't really try to stop Isak either. They literally target Walker with their long-through passes. Additionally, we keep on playing through Walker on the right, and it's so ineffective.

does alvarez needs some rest? He has been poor for a while now.

Really!!

Wtf is going on tonight ! They look like scoring with every kick of the ball and we need 10 attempts to score one . Walker has been shit again and Dias is living on his great first season atm . Need to get our act together

 

[I'm Blue]

Dias form has dropped off a cliff.
Don’t even see him organising the defence anymore.

 

[Blue warrior]

strange game we was playing some good stuff but when teams and atmosphere goes up full throttle in pace and intensity we start struggling.

 

[bert38]

It’s a bit of a mess out of possession…..

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

We never win at home and we never win away..

 

[super_city_si]

Yeah we have played well enough going forward but our defence is all over the place .

Forward kine is awful too. Phil has turned and ran them a few times and has no options. Missing haaland big time today. Alvarez just runs wide where has no shot.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

What’s joe royle up to these days?

Sat on his asre on the penalty spot.

I’m so tired of Doku running around like a Chicken with his head cut off. This system is based on possession. In the back of ur mind you have to be thinking about keeping control.
