Match Threads Newcastle vs Spurs

[Montalbano]

Dick of the half: Bissouma

Get him off

 

[thebenjamin]

I don't understand how we're so weak in duels

 

[DiscoD1882]

I blame the kit

Stupid as it sounds. Even though it’s not green. It does have a muddy colour to it. It is a bit cammo. If as a player you are just looking for colour. This is an issue.
But apart from that. We are just fucking awful Front to back. Getting bum fucked by a team with a whole team injured. No excuses for that.

 

[Wadec]

Son is fucking hopeless as a number 9

People may not be ready to hear it but he probably shouldn't be playing for us after this season. Doesn't fit any of the roles in the front 3 in Anges system.

 

[Tucker]

Don’t think we have been all that bad. The goals were unfortunate, first one very unlucky the second a horrendous individual error by Porro.

Bissouma has had an absolute howler in midfield though. Needs taken off and dropped for the run in.

 

[Mr Pink]

We want so much time on the ball, just stunned by how low our intensity and sharpeness is.

 

[fecka]

Every single one of our players on the pitch looks lethargic and timid. No movement off the ball gives the person with the ball no options leading to a turnover because we end up moving the ball too slowly and predictably.

Atrocious 45 minutes so far.

 

[djhotspur]

Bissouma is obvious one, but Maddison is really tripe at the moment too

Yup. Both are too slow on the ball, maddison offers nothing defensively either

 

[cjbyid]

Very happy it's half time.

Although I predict another Fulham, Newcastle will get more.

 

[Misfit]

Out and not watching the game. What does Ange do at halftime to try and salvage something?

Tell the players to stop sucking? I've no idea tbh. It's like watching a different team, especially in midfield, from the start of the season. As we know, the system will not be changed, so not sure why people are crying out for that false hope.

 

[TOLBINY]

Out-coached, out-fought and out-played.

 

[Romulus]

Pathetic

 

[G Ron]

We are in desperate need of some
Physicality in this team. We’re so weak

 

[Wheeler Dealer]

That's a little bit silly. He's brilliant but having a bad game today, while being served up absolute dross.

He was shit last week, again at Fulham and West Ham.

 

[tubbygold]

Richarlison is not on the bench, as injured. Son isn't a striker who can lead the line.

Ah, hadn’t seen that.

Well he can’t really do anything else either, except maybe on counters. Just fumbles about and loses the ball, trying to be peak Barca. Most of them do, really.

 

[faze_coys]

Fuck signing Werner, need to put that 15m towards an actual striker.

 

[tommyt]

My eyes are bleeding

 

[yiddopaul]

If Newcastle can score twice in 30 minutes, we most definitely can get two or three in 45.

 

[mattstev2000]

Awful defensive performance today, but then the defence hasn't been great for much of the season.

The defenders are good but I think we need a specialist defensive coach, it doesn't seem to be Ange's forte.

God knows why Bissouma was starting today as well.

 

[bubble07]

A draw wouldn't be terrible here

@Guntz @Fidget how about now?
