Match Threads Newcastle Vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 30

[Who’s our next manager?]

OK, further to my earlier note, this should be our road map for the summer:
1. Get a new goalkeeper as Hugo has had enough and wants to leave, and to be fair is past his sell-by date.
2. Get rid of Aurier, Docherty so get a new right-back.
3. Get rid of Dier, Toby (both clearly no longer in favour, despite the latter being our best defender) and Sanchez, and replace with Tanganga to work alongside Joe Rodan.
4. Keep Hojbjerg and Dembole but make it clear to the latter that as the creative midfielder he is there to make things happen for 95 minutes EVERY game.
5. Keep Harry Kane if he'll stay, and possibly Sonny provided he can keep his head out of the clouds for EVERY game.
6. Get rid of the rest other than the kids who should be given a chance.

Discuss ................................................

Sell Three centrebacks and rely on Tanganga and Rodon. Don’t you think we might need a few more?

I dont get it. Professional football players and some can't control the ball, kick with thier left, make correct decisions, shoot correctly and make simple passes etc.. What do they do all day in training? How did some make the grade? After 1000's of hours of football you must be 100% compitent, surly. There must be people behind the scenes that are making wrong decisions that don't understand what makes a good rounded player. Coaches are just as bad, the mighty Jose imo, gets it wrong oftern and cant seem to motivate players or coach players correctly. I dont believe its diffefcult as it seems.

Changing the subject , why did Bale fresh on the pitch take the late free kick. As a capt, I would have tokd him to FO and call Kane over who was finding his range. Absolutely unprofessional.

Spot in about the free kick.

Three man midfield would suit us

That's what I said and you 'spammed' my comment.

I'd make them work in the stadium brewery all week bottling beers and when they ask why I'd tell them it's because bottling is the only fucking thing I can trust them to do.

Oh yeah that'd be great.

Sanchez would just be stood there, clueless & waiting to be told what to do (but it's ok, he's only 24 & only learning).

The D Word would be being outpaced by the bottling machines.

Sissoko would just leave shattered glass everywhere due to smashing bottles all over the gaff because of his constant fucking pointing.

Mourinho would instantly make the beer flat & uninspiring.

Good times.

I did not blame Rodon, he is young and should not have Sanchez next to him.

Rodon is young and still learning.However, he plays like a more experienced player, he takes control, barks out orders. Future captain material for me.

As per usual a chance to jump into fourth spot for a day and exert pressure was bottled by the team and manager.
Yet shitty old West ham are now a better team than us, how has a annual relegation fodder side been able to go past us.
Totally inept management of the club starting with levy down to the players which we pay top dollar for.

I expect Chelsea, Liverpool, Everton and Arsenal fans are having similar thoughts!!

Brendan Rodgers always strikes me as someone doing an exceptional impression of what he thinks an elite manager should be like, as opposed to an elite manager.

I think his persona would get seen through very quickly at Spurs.

edit - wrong thread

Why would Rodgers leave Leicester to join us?

They probably prepared to pay what Levy's prepared to pay him, he's got a team to work with & owners that are prepared to back him & strengthen in the areas he wants, something no manager recently has got at Spurs.
