Sir Les just nailed it. This is our first venture back into Europe after a long break. Plenty more opportunities to build on. Enjoy it.
I’ll add that i cannot believe I watched Bruno/Almoron do that ****ing stupid 1-2 a number of times. Was ****ing embarrassing. Gordon was good but it was predictable and pedestrian. Unpleasant watching us be like that, just looks like the manager and/or players just don’t have it in them to win these games.
Close game against an unbeaten team in the Bundeslega. We could go to their place and get something. No shame. Hope Isak and Murphy will soon be back. No idea what happened to Isak.
Wilson’s chance on goal pissed me off the most. Isak buries that if he’s on. I think it’s the fact even just a draw would have done wonders for us keep Dortmund away. I can’t see us getting any points in Dortmund or Paris, can see us giving Milan a good game though at our place. Enjoy the moment, enjoy us walking out with that Champions League anthem, Dortmund just looked chuffed to bits beating us 1-0, we’re doing something right. I do think we won’t qualify but I’m just proud of the lads. To think we’d be in this situation 2 years ago? Crazy. Trying to stay positive.
****ing hell, are you always miserable? It was a champions league game! Do you expect us to be world beaters every week? It was a narrow defeat, we hit the bar twice!
TBF, Wilson should have buried that. To take it with the outside of his boot, when the keeper was already naturally moving that way, was infuriating,
Wow just reading a few posts and it's like some have forgotten Newcastle were playing one of the best clubs in the world. Looks like we'll go out in the group stage unfortunately but 3rd and the Europa League is probably our best bet for a trophy. Newcastle are getting closer it'll take another few years and we'll be seeing more of the big games.
