This is fun like

Worst thing about Murphy is he's not even willing to get stuck in.

Good comp.

Murphy offers nothing. Everyone else is stepping up. He's just a body. Capable of passing backwards 5-10 yards. Maybe a modicum of defensive ability but no aggression or athleticism to make it anything other than mediocre. That's about it.

Essentially. Great job.

Feels like a 2021/22 NUFC performance. Which is fine tbh.

It really was. A kind of "what do you expect me to do?" moment. Poor guy. He's not built for this league.

Best passing of the game from Newcastle to win that corner. Not a high bar!

He's been on an island getting long balls fired in at him. Not even into running lanes, but like he's Niall Quinn, right into the guy. Tough ask IMO.

Yeah they've been really good. Haven't laid a glove on them really apart from that Joelinton header.

Uninspiring changes but got to trust Eddie knows the condition of the squad best.

It's impressively bad.

There's no passing game today. If we're just running it out from the back with no one supporting the ball carrier, let it be ASM.

Need ASM on asap.

Newcastle proper rattled in possession. Fair enough, respect Arsenal when they're on the ball, but it's just nerves when in possession.

I like Newcastle aren't overcommitting to win the ball back.

If the ref applies the same to them, fine.

Those are both soft.

ASM as an outball is an obvious miss. Maybe second half.

Newcastle having to work a lot harder than Arsenal here in the opening exchanges IMO. Hope they don't fade second half.

Juggernaut Vs the Blob iyam

Yeah, only mildly frustrating for me. Really good effort from the players second half.

ASM would be class to bring on.

Wasn't a pen IMO. Frustrating big moments have fallen to Burn Doesn't feel like Bruno has got his foot on the ball enough. Feels a bit like ping pong.

Will never not feel this way tbh
