I see we have the same incompetent VAR official as the one who did the Burnley v Luton game last night How he could.allow the goal Luton scored.in the 92nd minute to stand was a joke, as the Luton player clearly fouls the goalkeeper The game doesn't bode well with officials like these as these people can manipulate results to suit the agenda Why have the pgmol appointed the same official for 2 games running when so many others are not officiating this weekend
I don't mind as long as it is fair and square, What I cant stand is seeing blatant wrong decisions by officials that are supposed to be neutral in their decision making Likewise it would leave a sour taste if we gained points by dodgy decisions
Just got to get the next two games out the way and then things will start to improve. I believe losing Joelinton is huge. The middle 3 of Guimaraes longstaff and Miley is so pedestrian they'll just play balls straight balls through to foden and he'll be away running at the back 4. I genuinely hope I'm wrong, but I don't think Newcastle will win many games with the midfield 3 mentioned playing. I'd probably look to get some pace in there, but Newcastle seem to want to add a DM without it. When is Willock back ? Really miss him.
Weirdly, we don't seem to be looking to add anybody (Howe said new players aren't on the radar then followed that up saying the likes of Solanke are out of our league.....) and Howe's propensity for soft tissue injuries shows no sign of letting up either.
2 broken shoulders (Murphy/Pope) , 2 broken tail bones (Burn/Anderson) Broken toe (Barnes) Knee injury (Botman), Achilles (Willock), aren't soft tissue injuries.
It's not long until summer when they can cash in Longstaff who's 100% profit. We've got Miley and other home growns coming through. Basically any player is for sale, but Newcastle have a few players that would fetch a decent sum that aren't going to be good enough for the next phase. Solanke is a very good striker and too much snobbery exists about him imo.
What a shower of sh*t the Barnes singing has been. I thought it was a good move but at least we usually got some games out of Maxi and he was entertaining. We've seen all of about 30 mins from Barnes and he's been out ever since because he stubbed his toe! I know he's been unlucky but he better make a difference when he comes back.
