  1. Agreed. And I don’t see the Wilson to Barca links anywhere? That’s the most telling to me. Isak needs to be starting and the system built to suit him (and Tonali / Bruno) as much as possible.
  2. I really hope we stay in the game and don’t just defend this.
  3. Having players like Gordon and Barnes in the wide areas is completely useless when they’re getting the ball near the halfway line. They’re wide forwards, not wingers. When we don’t press and recycle possession further up the pitch - like we successfully did last season - they become less effective and get asked to do things they’re not as successful at. It also isolates the fuck out of Wilson/Isak. Without our strong press, no other team is nervous about playing us anymore. With these new tactics, we’re no longer a team to be feared.
  4. What the fuck happened to our press? The only match we did it in this season we won 5-1. Since then we’ve sat back, invited pressure, and let the other teams dictate the play in every other match - and lost them all. Is Howe trying to be too clever tactically instead of letting us bring all the pressure we did last season?

    Soccer.

    Legit pass to the Italians shit
  6. How is Chelsea’s bench that bad?
  7. If it wasn’t Newcastle I definitely would have turned it off.
  8. I just hope we actually play our game and not whatever you want to call what we did at Man City.
  9. It becomes Liverpool/YNWA energy very quickly.
  10. I’ll take one massive response to that performance today please.
  11. Plenty of time left for him when he comes back.
  12. The same ball just got played and worked. I stand corrected.
  13. ?‍♂️ As my bench dude obviously
  14. Right as that Sheff Utd player hit a stupid long ball I said “waste of a ball” to myself and then Gary Birtles chips in with “see that ball causes so many problems but is very rarely used at this level that ball turns defenders” as the ball stayed in front of the defense the entire time. Fucking dinosaurs in commentary man.
  15. Jesus that Sheff Utd dude can take a throw in
  16. Another example of a sponsorless kit looking way better.
  17. “It’s a bad time for Manchester City to play Newcastle United” just now on NBC. Then they went on waxing poetic about how good we are front to back. I prefer to be under the radar but it doesn’t suck to hear our club being talked about like that.
  18. I don’t know one player in the starting eleven for Sheff Utd.
  19. Not sure what point you’re trying to make my man. As much as I hate them, Liverpool are a massive massive club that any player would be lucky to play for. They hit his release clause, put triple his wages on the table, he signed. It’s incredibly straight forward.
