My response was kind of an open one not aimed at anyone in particular. I would love us to play entertaining attacking football. That will never happen under Benitez. However, if he achieves success with his style then I will accept it. If I had a preference though, I would choose the cavalier Keegan style any day of the week. But for a few bad results [and unlucky] we would have probably been champions and pushed on from there.
I wanna win something and although I am somewhat in agreement with Windy's post above, we have had exciting teams and not won anything, so if it meant being more conservative and not as attractive (kinda like Theresa May) in order to win something, I would take it. League cup, FA cup, European qualification, any of that. Although all opposing fans will be like "Newcastle, big club, no you've only won like one cup in 50 odd years"
I'd like to see us play like Cambridge United in the early 90's. Hoof it long towards the touchline, flick on and score. Big physical players that scare the **** out of the opposition. No skill involved. Skill is overrated. So is passing the ball - achieves nothing. Get it down the pitch as quickly as possible.
Dunno why, but I can imagine she is probably has a bit of kink in bed. I just wouldn't want to find out because I can't get past that face and the voice. It would have to be a paperbag and dummy job.
Not my type. I think she's a better talker than she is a politician though. I backed David Davis against Cameron and backed Liam Fox against May, I never get my way.
Think we need to keep one target man as a Plan B and for me its Mitrovic (and sell Murphy). His ability to hold the ball up may be a godsend when our defenders will definitely be under the cosh more. One of the best games I saw in the last PL campaign was the Newcastle vs Man Utd 3-3 and he was outstanding in that game. Having a big man up front doesn't equate to unnattractive/conservative football unless ALL you do is hoof the ball up to him and bypass the midfield.
Good football doesn't have to equate to not bringing success. Conservative football sounds completely non-entertaining. You won't get me buying tickets for that.
I thought Conservative football was the sort where most of the ground is given over to executive boxes full of people wining & dining on corporate tickets and not watching the game? If that's the case we can look forward to players avoiding tax through by using complicated financial instruments to boost their (and their agents') obscene salaries. I predict those salaries will funded by the ordinary fans paying ticket prices that go up much faster than their own meagre wages, and buying merchandise produced and sold by people on zero hours contracts. Hmmm.
