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

Rico got bullied.
Gomez could only really be played at home with haaland to pass to.
Grealish ain't fit.
Philips is wank.
Positives...
More time in the legs for those returning.
Oscar Bob will be a talent.
That'll be Philips last start for the club.
Night night blues...
 
Commentary shit, almost to the point where I was thinking is it satire trying to make out that we had played a full strength side against Newcastle's reserve side, but I do think they were being serious.

We played the second half almost as if Pep said don't try too hard and we didn't, weird game all in all.

Phillips not got good enough for this side whatsoever. Grealish not fit and he does slow things down too much for me, Doku like a breath of fresh air when he came on.

Quite possibly the most small time reactions at the end from their fans.
 
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
 
Pep tells the world that not a minute of energy will be wasted in this game and the matchday thread does what it always does best, ignore that and has its usual meltdown lol.

Bigger fish to fry and congrats to Newcastle, you beat the current European Champions and top of the league City who played a near 3rd string side.
 
Doubt Pep will lose any sleep from that. Should be only 2 trophies we care about, rest is gravy.

Thought as individuals we were okay but team performance sub par. assume Jack needed minutes but not sure how he stayed on for 90
