I said from the start of the game and at 2-1 up even if we do manage to win this game we have gone about it the wrong way and could have made life alot easier for ourselves. Modric and Parker CM with 2 wingers would have torn them apart like for like 4-4-2 we are miles better on paper than they are, start getting VDV playing off the striker and Bale on the right weakens what on paper should be a far stronger outfit.I dare say, if we'd hung on for a 2-1 we wouldn't be hearing this.
However I don't think Newcastles attacking threat is anywhere near that of Arsenals therfore VDV on the right may have been ok, and I thought in the UEFA cup Gio was very impressive.VDV got mullard on the right at arsenal... Seriously there is currently no answer... Apart from bloody gio?!?!?!? Who has done absolutley NOTHING to warrant a start on the right.
Harry trying to accommodate players again!
Often it is said what Harry does well is keep things simple, round pegs in round holes etc and the last 4 games have pretty much been this. But today he tried to accommodate too many players and it didn't work.
Yes VDV scored but him off another striker just doesn't work as well as 4-4-2 as we have seen time and time again! I see the sense in Livermore for some muscle vs Newcastle but if it means playing one of the best CM's in the Prem LM and one of the best Left wingers Right wing then the benefit is very much lost!
We were under-par and it was annoying to throw away 3 points but I just think Harry got it wrong from the start. Lennon being is a bit of a problem i'll give him that, but Give Giovanni a start or play VDV on the right and the sooner Lennon is back or we get a right-winger the better 4-4-fucking-2 please!
P.S. I love Harry and all he has done but think he got it wrong today, the football didn't stick and even though it was a good move to bring on JD he really should have started.

Harsh on Disco Benny though who has been more consistent and deserving of a place in the side than Bale for the 2nd half of last season and the start of this.

Pure conjecture.
