Newcastle United (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

I think it is important to remember that if not for a blatant dive, we would have gone to St. James with Rodri, Kev, Ake, with a hobbled Haaland and not-yet fit Foden, and gotten all three points.
They were missing their best player too in fairness…
 
Gordon left his leg in for the pen then went down as if shot before remarkable recoveries, why isn't this mentioned in commentary? Howe always does the same, plays for a point
Every player does it these days and more often than not gets the pen because the refs are spineless.
 
Peps tactics work for control in midfield. But creativity isn’t there. I don’t think a Kev makes a differences either. With Rodri out you need two midfielders to replace what he does in this team. But then Gundo is better in Peps tactics due to his press resistant abilities. Kev takes risks with Rodri there you can take those risky passes as Rodri sweeps up if they don’t come off with Rodri out. You’ve got to rely on two players that don’t have that in their game or need to learn it.
