Disagree. Think they’ve been far more dangerous and other than Mac’s two shots don’t remember us doing anything going forward
OK. So Robertson there ran off maybe 15 yards. Stopped. Never got back at all. We went up with no pass on amd lose it and now it's a corner.
Right back is killing us. Quansah as been alright but there is no creativity and that's having a knock on effect with Salah too
We've not really tried to. Just passing back to safety and moving around in front. No risks to be taken.
Not an ideal score line, especially with Man City winning 2-0. Plenty of time to come back though. I don't think it needs much changing. Need to do better retaining the ball to stop Newcastle attacking, I think defensively we need to adjust too... it's not working.
This has been as disjointed and crap as I’ve seen for a while but we’re only one goal down. Szoboszlai for Mac or Jones, Move Gapko to centre forward, swap Nunez for Diaz. Trent for Gomez?
Kind of agree with this. We've seen similar vs Ipswich and Brighton first halves and then came out flying 2nd half so hopefully this will be a similar story. The funny thing is that before Newcastle scored I was gonna say that they've been great at pressing but not great at much else. Isak is different class when it comes to clinical finishing though.
If Trent's fit, he would probably be my first pick. Nunez just isn't working today- I wouldn't mind swapping him for Szobo, an extra man in midfield would help control the game better.
Poor from us first half and ref is happy to dish out cards for us, but not for Newcastle. Was the foul on Jones in the penalty area? If so did VAR check it?
