Sitting back allowing pressure will only make these mistakes happen more often.

These tactics are dog shit
I’ve had a problem with our passivity since he joined. It’s why I said we’d never win the league or compete with Liverpool and City. But today we’ve been okay.

Whilst Sanchez has been a lot better than Dier and Lloris, I still question why he plays Sanchex and Royal on the same side of our defense. Spence has to get a run soon.

This club will never achieve success. We are what we are. Nothing seems to work. Got a lovely stadium now though.

He can be pissed all he wants. If he continues to be so brain dead and see Emerson and Sess as the ideal wingbacks amongst the players we have, he's doomed to fail.

This is exactly what I meant when I said the performances are not sustainable. We've picked up points where we played crap but you can't do that every week and Newcastle frankly did not have to panic.

Probably an over reaction after losing two on the bounce to top 4 rivals after losing away at Arsenal ... but, we are playing negative football and I do not think Conte's uber-organisation defensive counter attacking football works with (a) the players we have or (b) playing mid week in Europe.

If we are serious about playing pass out from the back football then we need to upgrade Lloris, Dier, Sanchez, Royal etc. We also badly need proper backup for Kulusevski. Cannot see it happening TBH.

If Lloris doesn't fuck that up and we take our chances we would have won this comfortably. It didn't look as bad as against united but when our gameplan goes out the window there is no plan b more than hopeful balls forward and some Vio magic.

wouldn’t be fussed at all if he got sacked and we brought in Poch.

Neg all you want but this is dross and has been basically all season. We’ve gotten worse and I’ll never understand this coward football we play. Emerson Royal 90 minutes? Fuck off.
