Match Day Thread Brentford v Newcastle United

Ask him he’s down in the bottom left hand corner peeking in


We can see you

 

It appears the players and staff are more bothered about playing blaydon races after local hero rather than trying to not be **** in away games.

 

Dust yourself down

 

Come out and rub it in GG...

 

Hi guys, how’s it hanging?

Sorry I’ve been away. I’ve had some personal issues to deal with.

So what’s new?

 

The bedwetters are being proven demonstrably correct this season.

 

Nothing new. In fact something old..... Our team is back to playing like it was under Steve Bruce

 

I’ve been a bit absent of late but still watched the games. Personal **** and stuff.

Have I missed much?

I can’t wait till we get Wissa in because I love Woltemade but he’s not a striker.

But that decision to keep Burn on from Howe was just plain bizarre.

 

I actually think Steve Bruce would have changed Burn when he got his yellow card.

 

Mate it will never get that bad under Howe.

Look simply Howe was always going to get a period like this and (I can’t believe I am saying this) he actually needs our support right now.

Howe simply has to go back to the basics and get his players running through walls again.

 

Hope everything works out OK... At least you can come on here and say I told you so.

 

lol I would love to. But I’ve had some difficult weeks and I’ve been very angry. But not now.

Howe is under pressure and that’s quite right. But he needs support now and I think a few players are letting him down.

Im not sure he’s going to be able to manage a champions league squad easy with a cup run and the PL.

But he’s now in this situation where he’s placed trust in certain players and now they need to be let go.

 

Because you're too scared to.

 

Big Nick is a number 10, plain as day. Him and Wissa need to play together. We need to change formation.

 

Apparently Pope went off with concussion - why didn't he come off straight away then?

 

I agree mate. He’s a brilliant link up player but he’s not a striker. As such I can’t hammer Howe at all because he’s playing with difficult cards.

When Wissa is back and we have hall and Tino in at full backs i am certain we will be fine.

I think Joelinton needs to be sacrificed for Woltemade when we have everyone back.

Almost a 4-3-2-1 and we should be fine.

 

I’m all for a change but I think we should still play with 11.

 

Ha ha good shout. So mate a 4-2-3-1?

 

It doesn't matter who's available if your manager doesn't use common sense in tight games like Today.

If there was any singular reason behind Today defeat that was it and Howes taking about lapsed concentration??? I'm assuming he was talking about himself...he's blaming Botman, but it was his own bloody fault.

 

It’s all very concerning. Howe talked about confidence, which is his job, and he’s now started to blame players both in words and actions (against West Ham he hooked players, today he blamed botman for the third). I said before the match Howe looks lost. I don’t know if he’s unsettled by the new CEO and Sporting Director but there’s an awful lot wrong right now. No team should be spending £250m on players and becoming significantly worse. Well, apart from Liverpool.
