It's admirable tactics when you are a non-league side made up of painters and decorators who have to run a million miles and crawl off the pitch. For a professional team, these tactics are akin to spitting in the face of each and every fan.
Never right tactics,never forgive Benitez when losing 3-1 against Chelsea last season and he brings on a defender
You guys are pissing me off sorry vut if you think we had any other option today with shelvey lacelles and even Kennedy out against that side youre as foolish as general custer
Exactly the ref cost us man If wed drawn it's a good point even if we were full strength City next then arsenal Toughest start in premier league history imo
A) we lost the game. Hard to argue the case of brilliant tactics when you've lose. B) The Newcastle fans don't pay £500 for a season ticket to watch the opposition play football. Turns out that is what they have paid for though.
While I completely and utterly disagree this is the best analogy I've ever read! Glad your back Cap! Dross, garbage, boring, ****e, **** game. Only came out and attacked when we are a goal behind, i mean we didn't beat them 3-0 at the end of last season playing 5 at the back so why today? Positives - well organised and the new defenders didn't look horrendously awful, Joselu has found his shooting boots this season. Should have gone 442 with 2 solid banks and Rondon and a partner upfront. Felt sorry for him chasing lost causes on his own.
Oh **** off man If wed drawn youd be happy The reason we lost was a terribke decision and thats a fact
Mitrovic averaging 90 minutes per goal so far this season. Joselu averaging 88 min per goal. Obviously kept the right striker.
No. I wouldn't. Fact is, we scammed Cardiff out of a point, and almost did it to Chelsea, by playing football everybody would say was absolute dross.
Honestly if we lost 5 nil but attacked theres goal difference to think about later in season Plus youd all say we were stupid to set up against them like that
Away at cardiff a newly promoted side with as much quality as us tbh. Sorry but youre attitude is pure arrogance Only an arrogant fool would send that weakened side out to attack that opposition jam packed with world class players
Your all so ****ing critical if my negativity but **** me your quick to do it yourselves lads. We got robbed of a well earned point simple If wed lost 4-0 youd all be saying the opposite i read this **** every ****ing time
Thing about mitro You could not trust the bloke he kept getting sent off How can you win. Now. The **** has been sensible. Whilst at Fulham Because his manager. Will pull his heed off if he does not lol
Seriously lads we will lose the next 2 games then our season starts Losing 2-1 to that team is no disgrace and i guarantee others will lose more heavily Its a marathon not a sprint
That season we lost 4-1 to Portsmouth, 3-1 to Blackburn, 6-0 to Manure, 3-0 to Arse, 4-0 to Villa, 5-1 to Manure (again), 3-0 to Pool and 3-1 to Everton? Nah mate, Benitez does Allardyce better than Allardyce, and on comparitively less money. It's negative tactics, but what do you expect when we make more money than any other club this window and we still have a core team of what we bought in the champ. Allardyce was given the money to buy competitively, Benitez wasn't. Can't expect flowing football when goal difference is a point to us.
You can be organised and offer something in attack. Case in point was Wolves vs City yesterday. I'm not saying that we should attempt futsol style. That performance is absolutely embarrassing, and the manager deserves flack for it, and personally I think that manager's that employ such anti-football tactics should be reprimanded by the league. Have a bit of pride and at least have a go at home.
