We can turn it round 2nd half still. Bergvall needs to come off. Johnson needs to help porro.
Nah he’s solid and would be good for a Fulham or Forest style team. It’s just awful squad building that we signed him for a high line team that plays out from the back. No plan at all. A typical Paratici scattergun style signing with no plans to actually assemble a squad for a specific style of play.
Their midfield is on a completely and utterly different level to ours.
Its what we do mateThis is gunna finish like 5, 6 to newcastle second half. Watch us completely fall apart.
Its as soon as the energy levels begin to fall away
And actually it didn’t. Replays showed it hit the Newcastle player lastFuck all about the joelinton handball or Burn not getting a second yellow, but the TNT commentator outraged that we got away with one as the ball hit Spence’s foot last as it went out for a goal kick. About right.
I mean, I did say as you’d expect.Can we blame them? The club or team is giving nothing to shout about.
Ange needs to go. Injuries or no injuries the entire team set up is a shambles. Nobody knows how ot defend and keep a clean sheet
shut up and just support your club! Squad is decimated, two 18 year olds and a keeper making his debut in the team! One of the 18 year olds didn't even train all week with the flu! On top of that the ref has completely screwed us here so we are playing against 12 men! The least we can do is support them during the game!Credit to the fans who turn up for this.
Levy and ENIC love them.
You can do that when you can elbow, handball and just constantly foul with no repercussions. Not saying we look great but those are factorsNewcastle have slowly taken more control as the game has gone on.
Apparently its by design to not have Johnson track back.
