Newcastle post match thread

i will say one thing about this city team and squad you don't notice any replacements players just slot into the role and the setup looks the same every players knows the role there asked to do and when somebody covers its a well oiled cog and they don't look out of place

I certainly notice the drop in quality if KDB or Dave are missing.

Not a big deal, though, because they are exceptional players. Hopefully the deputies will get into full swing later in the season.
 
when we play against teams who park the bus, we should move the ball a lot faster instead of going from side to side and back, hit them with speed and the other team will be dragged all over the place leaving gaps in the area. but its still 3 pts and 15 in front of them
 
The finishing and final passes were quite poor all night, KDB was the worst culprit finishing managing to get none of his chances on target. The defending was erratic for the last 15 mins, the Mangala sub showed an intent to sit back, and it was similar to the last 15 at OT.

Should have been a routine 4-0, could have ended up 1-1.
 
We won in a game that last season against similar opponents we would have drawn or lost but the commen thing is inaccuracy with our shooting.

22 shots only 6 on target.

We will always give teams a chance if we don´t sharpen up our shooting. Got to assume a shot is taken because there is a good chance to score but if that player simply misses the target ie fails to get his shot where a save needs to be made then same as last season.

And that's why Sanchez will be here in January.

Ian Cheeseman said and I agree, that we deliberately took it easy last night.
 
Haha! Just remembered I’ve chosen the Newcastle home game as my first home game of 2018 as it’s the 1st weekend I can get down to the NW in January! If they play like that at home, how much more negative can they get at our place??

They can't actually be any more negative, that's the good news.
