Premier League Games 2/3 Dec '23

Serious question, is Onana actually any good with his feet?

Sick of hearing the cliche that he is, and yet he's given it back to Newcastle about 3 or 4 times already.

Not particularly. It's more his apparent calmness on the ball and willingness to take risks that have given him a reputation as good with his feet. His actual passing ability isn't standout.

Now I know why Elvis shot so many TV screens out.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Newcastle just don't have the poise and self belief to capitalise on their possession advantage.
They won't win the game.

No yellow for Rashford kicking ball away.

I agree.

I'm sticking with my dodgy VAR 1-0 win for the scum

But I thought the term refers to the ability to distribute the ball?

Surely the idea is you're calm under pressure and able to find a man.

Rashford out for a Saturday evening stroll

 

[I'm Blue]

Come on you useless oil bastards

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Newcastle don’t get enough players in the box.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Come on you useless oil bastards

This will be repeated in tomorrow's match day thread.
