Match Thread | Newcastle vs. Man City (28/09/24)

Pep’s our set piece coach. We scored the third highest amount of goals from set pieces last season.

Carlos Vicens is our set piece coach.

That may have been our best ever corner routine, Haaland with the flick on to Grealish

 

[Mancity1980]

So slow and ponderous, can’t understand why we’ve gone without any pace in Doku and Savinho and someone that can actually pick a pass or shoot in Foden

To deal with the lack of control in midfield due to Rodri’s injury by utilising Grealish and sacrificing Doku and Savinho. We still have those two and Foden on the bench if needed later on. I get it though it is frustrating.

 

[Keeper!]

Get Lewis on that left side helping out Gvaridol

This is as bad as we've played in yonks. Shocking stuff.

His passing will still be good when he’s in his 60s, he’s a magnificent footballer.

But his speed, fitness and athleticism looks more than a year older than the last time we saw him in sky blue.

Yeah, I won’t get into it too much now cos I wanna watch the game, but I’m not sure he was ever a player with a game based on speed and athleticism.

Peps knicked Artetas bus

 

[Blu1]

We are so open on every set piece. Surley pep can see this

 

[striver]

We have one - Pep talked to him in the Arsenal game, so they could take Doku off Gabriel to allow Walker to give him a free run. This week, the genius has matched Lewis with Burn

somebody stealing a living :)

 

[M23 Citizen]

Grealish and Gvardiol are the only ones playing for us so far.
