I think that's what's pissing me off. I appreciate it is a friendly but we should be trying to attack, playing without fear really and not repeating the same shocking mistakes from last season. I'm seeing no evidence of any of that. In addition Pardew still has not learned players positions and appeared to move Ben Arfa out right after a bit, should have been there from the start. Why play a central player out right and move your best wide player centre. Beyond belief. We never create many chances either or at least fire a shot off. Never close enough to do it. Predict we will finish around 16th this season Were very easy to play against, we have no real attack at all, from any angle. We will still be running around with 15 minutes left though so that's good - go fitness woooo

I think its because we have no one else. Do we have any other strikers in reserves other than Campbell. How have we not got young strikers at all. No one who is remotely close to the first team. Even Campbell is going out on loan. We literally have no one. Not much AP can do on that front to be fair. You would think we would have aimed to fix that and bring in a couple of young strikers beneath first team, must be a cheap striker about that is a better fit than Shola - it's best isn't it, that's who it is

It's a disease we can't seem to rid ourselves of,disgusting watching Shola in particular. This just isn't football. There is no shape, no talent, no movement, passing, attacking intent. We are absolute garbage to watch. Exactly as it was last season and on top of that Jonas isn't playing and Shola will be our only striker in a few weeks

My eyes fucking hurt

Our players are miles apart when ball in centre. Need to be closer and quick sharper passing rather than risking losing it with long passes. Shocking and zero movement. Nothing has changed at all

Tiote just smashes it out there I see. Cabaye and Tiote waste of space in centre

Don't see what's so funny, he really ins't, he's a right winger. Never seen him play well in 10 position at all. Total garbage

Ben Arfa is not a number 10, doesn't make himself available at all and his movement off ball is shocking. Sissokho can't play right wing, Shola nowhere to be seen, Cabaye and Tiote absolute shit. Welcome to newcastle

We have absolutely no clue how to keep the ball or build up play, I know its preseason but this is lifting

And there you go, so fucking easy for them

We misplace every pass, shocking ball control and ball ending up out by players missing it.

Can't even pass the ball to each other, as expected

Pards:"Debuchy you are playing too well, play shitter." That's pretty much how it goes, or "don't take any chances just hoof it) or he tells other players to remain static and don't you dare make a run

He's not slow like, maybe struggled to get used to this league but was good with the ball, defensively bit of work to do but I think he will be class next season if he's allowed to be.

ah come on now. seeing ben arfa's bound to get get you a little excited at the very least. He will come on for 5 mins so will have to watch 85 mins of total garbage up until that point. Get in the mood for next season though

Can find that stream pretty easily in usual places, also on some angolan channel

Hope we don't, need some more hoofy hoofy to prepare for new season, won't get anywhere with new shit. May watch this one if I feel my eyes can take it

Still senior players we are losing, Simpson was still a capable squad player behind Debuchy. Perch was ok'ish, Harper still a senior keeper albeit extremely average, Gosling agreed terrible Harper was third choice keeper and could move to fourth choice anytime now with younger keepers coming through. Simpson counts as a senior player of course, but not a loss IMO, but then I detest him more than some, and of course Perch is a useful squad player but I'd much rather see players like Anita and Bigiramana given a chance instead. Suppose, maybe that is the plan to have Tiote/Cabaye with Anita and Bigi as backups. Would still like maybe one more option although I suppose Jonas urgh and Sissokho could drop in there when injuries inevitably happen. Right back I take the point that Santon can drop in and should be looking at giving Tavernier chances if up to it. Keeper, not sure about Alnwick mainly because never seen him play.

Cool another out, not bothered about this but that will now be 4 out without reply

Thank fuck he turned us down, dreading JFK's next choice though.

We concentrated far too much on keeping things tight and ended up wide open as fuck. Need to concentrate on our game rather than opposition in my opinion. Let them worry about us and push them so far back that they are bricking themselves. I think we need to be organised when not in possession but when we have the ball we have to be ruthless and busting a gut to get at them. Our biggest problems have been that we are pathetic at putting a team to the sword. I so miss Keegan and Robson like - other managers just don't get it

just wow, we are really scraping the barrel arent we, going to ruin this club those cunts
