Match Threads Newcastle vs Spurs

[0-Tibsy-0]

Worst performance under Ange by some distance.

There have been a few awful performances as well.

 

[Cheds]

Think our senior players need to take a good hard long look at themselves as most of them have been sub standard for a while now

 

[Misfit]

I said that, and people thought I was crazy...

But, something needs to change.

Whichever coach is in charge of defensive shapes and transitions needs yeeting for starters.

Our persistence with Mason really grinds my gears. There is absolutely nothing to suggest that he adds anything, and he was bang average when in charge. Retaining out of sentiment (if there's any of that involved) is utterly pathetic.

This is the kind of thing Utd fans were saying about McKenna and Carrick.

 

[TheChosenOne]

81% possession in the last 10 isn’t worth feck all

 

[offside_ruel_fox]

Horrid thing we have to stew on this for a couple of weeks.

Then next up Arsenal

 

[KingKay]

Absolutely nothing going forward against a make shift defence. Comical at the back, and completely absent in midfield.

 

[jonnyp]

FFS, just look at that, why is no one shooting or crossing... i give up

 

[faze_coys]

I'm convinced we will never ever know how to break down a low block.

No matter who's in charge.

Well just get faster wingers, surely that will work

 

[Misfit]

Teams have worked out to beat us you just give us the ball.

It's fool proof!

But, something needs to change.

What’s scary is it’s a brand new coaching team, it’s not like he brought his existing team with him or hired highly sought after coaches, they’re all a bit wish washy. As pants as Conte was, his set piece coach was superb. Our set pieces this season, especially from corners is absolutely pathetic.

 

[Cavehillspur]

We're absolutely not ready for champions league football. Regardless of whether we get it or not.

This lot would struggle in the Europa league.

 

[snakehipsspurs]

The shape just makes so much more sense with a shield in front of the defence. Much more solid and also provides a nice option to pass to relieve pressure. Biss doesn't have the discipline to do it at the level we need

 

[Tonio]

Timo waiting for the ball to come to his feet instead of getting his arse in gear.

 

[Col_M]

KICK THE BALL AT THE GOAL!!!

 

[thecook]

Ah shit are we not playing next week? I wouldn't be able to have watched so was hoping to miss a game

 

[Rout-Ledge]

81% possession in the last 10 isn’t worth feck all

Possession only means something if the other side is trying to play a possession game too. We can have the ball for five minutes straight trying to break a low block, but the other side only needs a ten second counter to score because we are absolutely wide open constantly.

 

[Bobbins]

THREE of them along the edge of the box, each time choosing to pass it along one more sideways instead of shooting.

Absolutely pathetic.

 

[JoaoPereira]

Timo's bravery is appaling. what a fucking weak individual. not cut for the level we're aiming at.

 

[parj]

Oddly, I think this has been one of Madders best games recently.

I thought Madders has been awful. He is hiding behind players in the attacking third instead of being central. PEH has been more the involved in attacking situations
