Newcastle (a) post match thread

[SebastianBlue]

Its not over. Tonight was very poor but we will come again.

It’s going to be a bit before I can after that performance...

 

[The Black Shed]

We royally fucked it up tonight. Feels like 2012 all over again

 

[Burtonblue]

F@@king he’ll
Cannot believe the level of hysteria on these pages!
One poor performance after an exceptional run of games and suddenly we are shit and the world is coming to an end!
So what. Do we really expect to win every game? Should anyone expect that?
Some of you guys need to give your heads a wobble. It’s far from over. Remember 2012 anybody?
Keep believing.

We got Pep to to put us on the map of CL. With Mancini and Pelle we had no chance to win CL. But not even getting a semifinal in CL with Pep 3 years would be a huge failure imo. For City and for Pep personally given his CL track record. With Barca and Bayern in 6 seasons he made the CL semis 5 or even all 6 times if I am correct.

In 3 years at City he failed vs Monaco last 16 then last 8 vs Pool last year. This season we should go trough vs Schalke but last 8 we gonna get some real big team again. That will be the ultimate test for Pep. Juve, Barca, PSG, Real, Pool/Bayern ...

It’s a cup - stupid to say Mancini or Manuel couldn’t win it. Chelsea won it and Liverpool won it with non entity managers

 

[cookster]

Worrying thing for me was the look on peps face spent the whole night looking like he didn’t want to be there

I think that was the look of frustration. It was dire, he probably didn't think such a talented group could play so bad.

Where is The Title thread, can't seem to find it?

The mods have moved it to RAWK.

 

[GX Blue]

Let’s duel it out in Excel! ;-)

Ha, I don’t wanna lose twice in one night.

All uphill from here.

It's not over.

 

[Beanhead]

Ederson should have saved that penalty.
Walker is absolutely fucking fucked and it shows. Needs a rest but we don't have any fucking full backs.
Stones did nothing wrong.
Laporte unusually sloppy, knackered?
Danilo so so inconsistent.
Fernandinho fucked up but I can't chastise him. Has given everything.
Silva not up to scratch.
De Bruyne sloppy.
Sterling anonymous.
Sane ditto.
Aguero absolutely shocking.

That was my point. Don’t think I’ve seen us collectively that bad / average. On rare occasions we are off colour usually a few play their regular game.

Sadly not the case tonight.

 

[manimanc]

There has been some nonsense on this thread but did anybody really think we made Newcastle look like Brazil???
They played like a lower league team holding out for a break and they got them . But play like Brazil??? or do you mean Alan Brazil!!

It makes sense that you don't post often. Go and piss in someone else's ear petal.

 

[stonie]

Can't see us clawing this back like we did in 14, I know we have more games to do it this time round but the dippers are far better than last time but never say never till the fat lady sings, after tonight anything can happen in this league, keep the faith

 

[Neville Kneville]

They wanted him more.

The mistake with Van Dijk, was not signing him from Celtic, a move which many o here would have pissed on becaise they had some wankers from their FIFA game who were better.

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

How does taking our best player off work? Protecting him for what? Arsenal game means fuck all after tonight.

Whooooooooooooooooooooosh

 

[john blue]

Massive opportunity thrown down the pan due to a shit attitude...it's unacceptable.
The pre-game talk could have written itself - let's put in performance of strength, power and character, batter the opposition, close the gap to 1 behind and really pile the pressure on the Dippers.
Instead, we write the Dippers pre-game talk for them and give them a huge psychological boost.

Let's just hope Leicester are as up for tomorrow's game as they were against us...I doubt it though.

spot on , that's what SHOULD have happened. utter shite, piss poor .

 

[balotellishaircut]

You don't win back to back Premier leagues with a team full of nice guys.

I said that a while back, I was calling for a Nigel de Jong type player to be bought, an aggressive tackler a leader, also a blue said this team can't win 1-0, well if that's the case that's a weak point in Peps tactics tbh.

 

[Agueroooooo16]

Can't see us clawing this back like we did in 14, I know we have more games to do it this time round but the dippers are far better than last time but never say never till the fat lady sings, after tonight anything can happen in this league, keep the faith

IMO we have the better squad, but it will be tough to come back since we’re still in all 4 competitions.

 

[SebastianBlue]

I think that was the look of frustration. It was dire, he probably didn't think such a talented group could play so bad.

It was dumbfounding to see some of the best footballers in the world look like they were just forced on to their company league team at the last minute to save face for the President who has a bet on with a rival for a weekend tournament win...

That was funnier in my head (as is usually the case).

 

[GaudinoMotors]

He said in interview, he wanted to go to Liverpool, as he was a fan.
Anyway, we didn't lose that game because we didn't get him.

Do players always go where they are fans?

 

[Machiavelli]

Unbelievaboo

 

[manimanc]

Its not over. Tonight was very poor but we will come again.

I think we've already come prematurely a few times this season already.
