Ake first goal was his mistake
he played on Newcastle player to the second goal
Conceded penalty.
he is lacking concentration

Hate being negative when we've won the league after a great season but Christ on a bike Ake is terrible. He has so far been caught out of position four times, given away a bad free kick, which they hit the bar from and went to ground after playing them onside to give the softest of pens- talk about showcasing his talents in a game. You have to stay on your feet matey. He's making Garcia look decent which tells you how bad he is playing. Two games on a row, two awful performances.

 

[Gabriel]

Good game and should be ahead. Can’t expect guys to walk in and hit form, so they need to relax and just keep their shape.

If we had Ake and Garcia playing centre half every week we’d be in the bottom half of the table.

What division?

 

[Tugay One Cup]

No but you can block.

That's what he went for. It wasn't a tackle, it's just a block and then Joelinton steps on him.

 

[SWP's back]

**** in VAR: I couldn't disallow the Torres goal Kev. But I can tell you to give the Barcodes a penalty.

Ref immediately gave the penalty, lino flagged for offside. Var overturned the offside so penalty from ref stands. How are you not getting that mat?

Get Dias and Stones on and take these 2 clowns off Pep

Ye let's risk injuries our 2 best CBs for a nothing 2nd half.

 

[FantasyIreland]

Other than Torres moment of genius.....Fucking painful this game,for numerous reasons.

 

[mancityscot]

ake not shining himself in any glory tonight but that was a harsh call

 

[WallyA]

Even though I don't think that's a penalty, I think Ake does himself no favours when he makes a challenge like that, especially so late in the 2nd half.
