Nah. Howes smashing it. And the fact that we have the world’s best midfielder is helping. Longstaff truly is showing that he’s the most important player we have.
Cagey first half, much better second half 17 shots at goal 6 on Target Newcastle :- 6 fouls Burns booked - misses WHU game Forest:- 13 fouls 12 committed by Yates = 1 booking
The refereeing was shocking mate. It really does need looked at. Some of the fouls they where getting away with where appalling. Longtstaff is our best player.
He actually did. So credit where it’s due. He swapped Gordon back to the left and put Joelinton on the right. We looked more balanced. I love Joelinton. Or should I say Goalinton.
I’ll happily admit first half i reacted hastily. First half I thought it was another “we’ll have chances, fluff them.. get caught on the break and lose” - the way it was looking. second half I thought we were really good. Played with energy, purpose. I just wish we could play like that much more. Why we don’t is anyone’s guess.
1 points is a good one. Can I just say that we need to recognise that Longstaff is our best player hands down.
