Can't cross, can't tackle, can't put pressure on people and stands off instead, can't pass and can't go past his man.

Take away the crossing defect and you've got Beckham !

Beckham can pass

When is the next round and who do we play?

82mins - NEWCASTLE GOAL (1-1): At last, United have the goal they deserve - but for a team which has been so unfortunate in front of goal tonight, there was an element of luck about their equaliser. Marcus Maddison surged down the right-hand side of the box and Jordan Walker slid in with what looked like a great tackle - only for the assistant referee to flag and lead Tony Harrington to award a penalty. Adam Campbell must have been under so much pressure as he waited to take it, but he made no mistake as he sent Deane the wrong way.

Newcastle United Under-18s (4-5-1): Alex Baird; Steven Logan, Louis Storey, Remie Streete ©, Michael Riley; Marcus Maddison, Ben Sayer, Brandon Miele, Dennis Knight, Michael Hoganson; Adam Campbell

Substitutes: Jonathan Mitchell, Will Turton, Jamie Smith, Lee Toland, JJ Hooper

Hopefully he can get a run of games and not be sat on the bench

Think this will work out to be a great move for him

Banega? Lavezzi? Kagawa? :mackems:

Why not go the whole hog and wish for Messi, Ronaldo, Silva etc etc

Will the moment ever arrive where they admit that Dalglish is an average manager and he has wasted millions on average players? I doubt it BUT it would epic if it happens

I hate these diamond formation. When was the last time we played that?

Keegan I think, after Fat Sam was ditched

Owen played behind the 2 strikers

I wish he would just put in an early cross, instead he takes about 5 touches and allows the defenders to position themselves

 

He definitely did that on a few occasions yesterday which was good to see but unfortunately his poor decision making is still there. Not as frustrating as he was a month ago though. Progress methinks.

He did put in a few crosses BUT I am referring more to as soon as he gets the ball, forget taking 5 or so touches, either a first time cross or one touch to control the ball and cross it in

He was quality and it is exciting to think how he will be when he is fully settled here

His touch was impressive, brought some long balls down with ease and then looked to pass it off and then move towards the box (the exact opposite of Shola)

The goal was brilliant, what a strike with your weaker foot on your debut

In terms of offside I think that is just something we will have to get used to, it happened a lot in Germany and looking at his playing style it will happen a lot here. As long as he is scores when he gets the chances it is of no major concern

I wish he would just put in an early cross, instead he takes about 5 touches and allows the defenders to position themselves

Cracking effort by Cahill

Not a handball BUT shocked Webb did not give it

Class save by de gea

Winner for Man-U to arrive in Fergie Time

Man-U blatantly going to equalise, Webb will intervene if he has to

Torres should have blasted it, no idea what he was playing at

Dive

I thought he did all right, his final ball is poor and his passing can be loose BUT he was lively, made some good runs and was a threat

It wasn't an amazing performance BUT compared to the usual shite he delivers it was canny

The midfield is just so average BUT not surprised Pardew went with that

Delighted Demba is back 

Who thinks both Ba and Cisse will start?

No chance

Pardew will be cautious

Perch won us the game

They were 6 points behind before we played Man-U

Their luck will run out before the derby,  it has to 

Had Cisse as captain, that went well
