We did well in the first 25 minutes but then were outclassed for the rest of the match, no shame in it, it's a step up in quality. Gordon had to score that but that's what happens when you have a winger playing striker. We gave Pedri too much time and he ran the show. Our off ball pressing is great but we need to be better at keeping the ball, sometimes we need to recycle the ball and wait for an opportunity rather than trying to force things straight away, Barca gave us a bit of a lesson about that, we can learn from it.
Styles of play and “all around class” don’t win games though. Barca sneaked a lucky one goal win is the fact that the history books will see
I think Hall phases out Trippier this season. While it took him a while to get into the team, he was an ever present until his injury. I would be very surprised not to see Hall against Bournemouth as Tripps looked like he ran out of steam against Barca and will need a rest.
I don’t understand your thinking on this one to be honest. He was bought as a project player, was one of best players in the team and is only coming back from a nasty injury. He knows he has to bide his time, but think that time will be soon personally.
Yawn, he’s had a serious injury. People complain we haven’t got a squad, don’t use the squad and now when we do use it. Tena ladies available
Yes, I am well aware of that, but Hall coming into the team phases Trippier out with Tino moving back to RB as Tino is one of the 1st names on the teamsheet
Tino is a sensational player. So much to learn but I’d be really worried about losing him if we have a poor season. Him and Tonali are our elite players.
If I'm right you'll apologise though. I don't wet myself thanks.. Jesus do you guys have another insult or joke available
If you agree with popular opinion they're your friends and you'll get likes and a pat on the back, but if you don't you're scolded... I refuse to play along in those type of circumstances, so I go against the grain sometimes for fun or simply in defiance. I don't even come on here as much anymore, because I'm sick to death of the snearing and the cult like environment we've got. Oh and good Morning everyone, let's hope for a 2nd win in 6, because I really don't want to take everyone's **** otherwise.
It is getting to the point where I don’t come on as much now and I don’t say what I want much now. I think we will struggle against Bournemouth as they are a good side. Howe is also making it a bit predictable. We are plucky Newcastle who give it a good go.
This article is bang on for me. If I could have written one after the Barca game it would read like it. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/spo...ewcastle-united-striker-crisis-after-32511088
