The entire Saudi Arabian soverign, population and government.. AKA Newcastle (A) 1630KO

[mummy]

I seem to remember there was another game we were playing where there was another medical emergency? Possibly before the Muamba incident?

Was it the one where Bale suddenly realised he was awake and it wasn't a nightmare?

No it’s noticeable before, but I think even more so yesterday with the Newcastle owner thing. It felt like Tyler was disappointed when we scored. Listen to the commentary for both goals. So biased.

I know. He was gutted when Kane was on.

He was wanking them off so much it was like he didn't even realise that Tanguy was about to score lol

 

[1882]

Hoddle too.

That was the one... Knew I'd forgotten someone. Bloody hell, maybe there IS summit in it!

 

[SpurFromOz]

Just thinking of todays events...

 

[White Van Jan]

Read the btl in the graun (noticed Bill Madrid commenting and a 'nutty naylor' doubt it was our own though) was struck by how many neutrals (inc some goons) wanting us to win

wonder if the Geordies, Saudis, sky know what they have put their bets on here.

I might be reaching, after city and Chelsea got away with it, due to UAE and Abramovic being lower profile, but it might just be that after the ESL, the rest of the fans won't let this go. Hopefully, sports washing will be the worst decision they made.

Yes I noticed the neutrals wanting us to win, including Gooner

Romero lost the header mate!!!!

And it was Romero who jumped and missed his header that led to the ball dropping over to Dier who wouldn’t have seen it until last min!!

Talk about being totally blinded by bias!!!

I've watched the first one a few times. Have to give credit to Wilson for the movement, it was very, very clever to hide behind Romero and then get around him in the time it took the cross to come in. Dier was still marking no one though. He was, as he often is, stranded in no mans land and not really adding to anything.
As for the 2nd, whether Romero missed it or not isn't important when Dier tried to head the ball, failed, fell over and kneed it into the goal like a complete pleb,

 

[Matt1882]

It was Romero’s man. Dier had the near post angle marked off. I don’t like dier and Romero is 10 times better but just saying the facts.

Actually feel, as I said before this, that perhaps we should applaud Wilsons movement in that goal rather than blame the defence as much. Call it hindsight and less rage as we snuck a win in the end,

 

[Matt1882]

Tim Sherwood is an idiot

Also, water = wet.

Marking no one? Thats literally what the centre half does when he is nearest the ball and a cross comes in. You mark the front post area. Look out for it next time you watch a game

 

[Distaste for scouse]

Still buzzing.

Hope Martin Tyler is ok this morning, somebody check in on him as he sounded close to the end when we scored yesterday.

HOWAY THE LADS!

Reguilon was on the winger on the over lap. Failed to tackle as well I may add.

 

[SpurFromOz]

Love this.

I mean the centre half nearer the ball. It is central defending 101, so many crosses get cut out in this position

 

[ShutUpPatrik]

Is it just me, or did we shift between our more traditional 4-2-3-1 and a 4-2-2-2 during the game?

Nuno's 4-2-3-1 seems to rely on more narrow wingers than Poch's did. Son played more or less as a striker at times even.

Just some small details that I noticed going back to watch some highlights. Lucas and Tanguy played more like 10s rather than wingers when we had the ball.

are you advocating that defenders all rush to the ball like a bunch of 10 year olds?

Romero lost his man and was unaware of his movement, he got "done" by Wilsons movement

Sky love talking about money and who has the most money or what team is going to spend their money.

They weren't so happy talking about the Super League money though...fucking hypocrites...
