Agree with this. No lack of effort from Gomez but he is technically poor. Not as good as Zinchenko in the same position. Phillips is too slow and not proactive. He doesn't influence matches. Grealish has fantastic skills but has major fitness problems, probably because of his lifestyle. Doku looks better. We can't carry anyone these days.Gomez, Phillips and Grealish not good enough.
The commentator was a prick tonight, a typical sky sports anti city wankathon.Sky bigging up a 3rd round toon victory for the ages, in a cup no-one gives a shit about.
Can anybody name the teams that got through the 3rd round of the Spanish/Italian/German/French/Dutch equivalent of our fizzy cup?
Nah, didn't think so.
Yawn.
You cant really say NUFC were great in 2nd half but the game now requires lightening pace and power, Doku was bought to add tge pace..but Jacky lad...playing out wide..can be a real drain..jog, stop, pass 5 yards back..he does shine occasionally but mostly its...the above!Congratulations to NUFC.
Gutted as l was hoping to scrape through, but it was a little bit to much playing NUFC at the wrong time.
Had we'd played Cardiff we'd have probably scraped through and may have won the whole thing.
but sometimes you need luck on the field and luck off it.
we won the treble from a similar position last season, lets crack on.
He is the golden boy at Manchester FA. Attends loads of their functions etcWhich County FA is he registered with? Surely can’t be Manchester County FA
Newcastle fans. More brawn than brain.
Proof that 64% of statistics are just made up.The 9% were awful passes. Of the 91% successful passes, I'd say that 75% were backwards or three yards sideways.
Nowhere near a good performance.
That’s fair enough if he ain’t overweight but he’s as slow as fuck at everything he doesI assume you haven’t seen Phillips in the flesh then? Far from overweight and if he was he wouldn’t be in the squad.
