Just don't see it mate. Needs to up his game.

Oh yeah. The first thread I passed on the tackle it somehow turned in to a circlejerk about how refs hate Salah.

I think it's the fact that's it's never just people putting their thoughts forward on what he could do better though, is it? Not everyone that questions his decisions is immediately a hater. I personally will continue to defend the argument that I think Hall deserved his chance sooner last season and Tonali should've been given the run he's now had at the start of the season. But that's different to a certain corner of this forum constantly thinking up their latest fan fic about how ruthlessly impatient the board are going to be because he can't take us any further and simply isn't elite, whilst ignoring every mitigating factor as if we're supposed to be a shoo-in for Europe. As an aside, it's also funny that some people (not saying you) still spout the 'he just doesn't learn' argument despite the amount of times people over the past few years have given him credit for doing something they'd previously been calling for.

I know you can find every opinion everywhere online but I can't believe how much of a minority we seem to be in here. Passed a thread on Reddit and there's even NUFC fans in agreement with everyone that it was harsh. Anyone that dares suggest he could've avoided contact is 10s of down votes deep. If people had just watched the one angle from the side I could understand the contention. But that angle from behind is going around just as much and couldn't be plainer as fucking day.

You do have to wonder how he turns things around here. EDIT: Sorry wrong week.

Ugarte looking good though so that's nice.

He's going to captain us sooner or later. At the very least he'll be in the leadership group soon. I love the responsibility he seems to take on, just little things to calm things down and directing others where to go.

And when he does peak, you'll know. Because he's gonna peak so hard that everybody in Newcastle's gonna feel it.

Would be nice, though..

What a shock Balague desperately clinging to Emery's hoop.

Anyone arguing that it was an unavoidable accident has to ask why when 99.9% of collisions result in not stamping on an opponent, Duran seems to have multiple steps to avoid Schar and ends up stamping on him at two wholly unnatural angles. Can't believe there's a genuine debate going on anywhere, even on shitboxes like Twitter and Reddit.

And I've been done like a kipper for sharing this one.

The measured reaction of a man you should definitely give the benefit of the doubt to as to whether it was accidental. Shoddy quality but that second angle couldn't make it more clear there was nothing accidental about it and that's the angle Taylor had. He remaneuvered his right leg to land on Fab ffs. Wild anyone would be calling that red harsh. EDIT: Just realised the caption of the tweet is some melt asking how that's a red when one of the angles they're clipping makes it plain as day.

You have to question how far someone can get you if they keep getting schooled by someone so unelite as Eddie.

Promising lucky victory today to give us a sliver of hope, here. 3/10.

I was gonna say I thought it was pretty easy to put your finger on it when it comes to Deeney. He's just a prick with a disproportionately high opinion of himself relative to what he accomplished in the sport.

A very good point and I think a bump of the Harrison thread is long overdue. Just another Vuckic IMHO.

Give footballers Chris_R's hotel rooms.

I wasn't far from their drummer and their thirty-fucking-five minute rendition of Spirit in the Sky can get in the bin.

What's that supposed to mean? This piling on for just asking questions is why more reasonable posters don't stick around.

You have to wonder if he's so promising why is that the most game time he's seen the entire year?

You still half to wonder what the benefit of him is with Ashby waiting in the wings.

You have to wonder if this result spells the end for Eddie. You really do.
