Link-up play, fluidity & awareness

corrected. Typo due to sheer frustration. -
We lack all of it. Utterly embarrassing both today and in previous games how when one of our players, more often than not a midfielder, picks up the ball all those around him stand still. There's absolutely no movement or willingness to ask for it and to create something. These players train with one another every week yet there never appears to be any anticipation about what others are going to look to do with the ball. Time and time again it's passing to people in static positions. More often than not it looks like one player is going to attempt to do everything himself. Others are just found watching. It's getting beyond a joke now. What is also extremely frustrating, today in particular, is how there's no cohesion between our midfield and our lone striker. For all Marveaux was meant to play in the "number 10" role today, far too often he was dropping deep to support Anita and Perch and also to retrieve the ball. Norwich were able to double up on him and nullify the threat immediately, before it was even anywhere near Cisse, who was utterly isolated. It's almost as if continuos hoof-ball this season has led the players to forget how to do this, but when you look at the three goals at WBA away last season as a prime example, at least 3 players pushing on, wanting the ball from those in centre mid, it's enough to bring you to tears how backwards we've gone.

he's gonna crack in an absolute thunderbastard off the the underside of the bar, Tony Yeboah style.

If Colo leaves who would you make captain?

Cabaye captain, HBA VC. However it'll go Jonas, then Taylor/Shola -
fuck this shit, big rendition of "Can't take my eyes off you" from anyone going to Norwich tomorrow. Needs all the support we can offer for now if it's definitely personal issues

wtf does he look like in that photo, man! "Jesmond-dwelling rah student advertises new NUFC kit".

no doubt "BBC Newcastle understands" is Mick Lowes doing some digging, and tbh I believe him/them.

fuck this shit am off to kip.

oh for frigs sake. Seriously?!

heard this on Talkshite on the drive home earlier. They just can't let him go ffs. No-one down south can ever laugh at our "obsession" with Keegan ever again.
-
it's just never his fucking fault, is it? Sick to the back teeth of his excuses.

think I've told the tale of being in Osbourne's one Sunday afternoon and Rocky Chopra was in... ...on the fucking bandit.

we're just trying to recreate the Musical Youth song with our own players. Starting with the bit at the beginning where it goes "biddla biddlee biddle biddlee BONG".

still gutted he's not Ethiopian tbh.

http://www.ilikeliverpool.me/brendan-rodgers-quotes/ :lol: On Joe Allen “Joe Allen is one of the most courageous players I’ve seen. He’ll take the ball in any situation and use his body well and get himself out” “When you’ve got the ball 65-70% of the time it’s a football death for the other team. We’re not at that stage yet but that’s what we will get to. It’s death by football. You just suck the life out of them.”

surely Blackburn were behind us when we took Souness off them though? We're just as daft in that sense...

Marseille won their friendly 2-1. Barton scored a 90th min pella to win it.
