Newcastle (A) | Wed 27th Sept | EFL Cup | Post Match Thread

[Gobshiight]

Leaving Haaland on the bench says it all I think, nobody is too bothered about losing tonight

Thought the ref had a shocker though, he let them get away with loads, especially Joelinton who left his foot in about 4 times

Five pages in and it’s turned into a Phillips-bashing thread.

I think the second half and game as a whole had more issues than Phillips.

I'm not down on the lad but he doesn't have what we need in that position. Good player in there, just not for us

 

[footballmanager]

clinical loss, our squad is not deep enough at the moment to play mickey mouse cups.

 

[Brendan110_0]

Saves us putting out a kids team in the 1/4 final due to club world cup commitments

 

[TonyM]

IMO we were poor but the result was due to a combination of mistakes and laziness. One is far worse than the other.

 

[PistonBlue]

Not overly upset. Clearly means more to them than it does to us. Only time will tell, but I don’t think come May we’ll be gutted about missing out on this one. Still chuckling about the ‘famous victory’ comment on Sky, fuckin hell

 

[Chi-town blues]

Carabao cup or club World Cup?
Players getting injured or giving players who need minutes, minutes?

Choose wisely.

The usual wankers will blame one player only when the whole squad feels they couldn't be arsed whether they win the match or not today.

 

[Scaley]

The famous fucking win .

Made me chuckle that bullshit.

 

[Sky Blue]

Amazed by the commentator making out that Newcastle (last year's finalists and winner by 8 at the weekend) beating City is some kind of giant killing. Always prefer to win but sometimes a loss isn't the worst thing in the world

It was fucking embarrassing.
