Robster Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 http://link.brightcove.com/services/link/bcpid958992159/bctid1731910526 Please tell me he wasnt talking about our goal when he said "they got lucky with the header... it just hit his head" The Shay save. Fair enough. Like you said though. Still couldnt bring himself to admit that we played well. Wanker that he is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 no "over-reaction" here as i'm still delighted with the performance but: butt: disgrace (passing) milner & taylor: all effort no quality duff: fuck off, seriously, i know he's fit and that now but really, please, just take your wages and lack of end product somewhere else rest of 'em: mint - howay the lads . More than harsh where Taylor's concerned I think. I thought Taylor had a good game. Milner didn't provide much of an outlet, and Duff went predictably back into his shell after enjoying the friendlies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than harsh where Taylor's concerned I think. Taylor played really well. similar to colo in that he got better as the game went on, maybe under instruction? watch the first few minutes again i feel sorry for colo, must have wondered what he joined 'cause taylor was chasing shadows anyways, yeah, he got better and ended up a decent game...still have that nagging doubt about him though that he's gonna go chasing something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodson Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Good game, well done lads! The old NUFC is back looking at style of play. When was the last time we saw our side play shortpassing as good as today? More than 5 years ago definately. A good shortpassing game will get us many 3 pointers against weaker sides. I can see St James's becoming a fortress again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see St James's becoming a fortress again. Its simple , Keegan Sends his teams out to play football in a positive manner, and as it happens, you score more goals, and win more points. Its no co-incidence that the more attacking sides finish the season at the top end of the league,... where KK will take us,... that i have no doubt, and have been saying it all summmer. Seasons started with Keegan as Manager,..1st, 3rd, 6th, 2nd, 2nd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Taylor played well with the exception of one early mistake one? generous dude, generous...but after he got beyond the disputed period he was good, agreed I saw him slip once but apart from that he was in the right place at the right time and looked solid in the air. I'm not a fan of him either but he looked a good defender today Duff, you're being harsh on aswell tbh. He had no chance to shine today because it was always tight in his area of the pitch and he was expected to support the midfield especially in the 2nd 45. He didn't give the ball away and never stopped moving which created space for Jonas and Martins Milner on the other hand, woeful excuse for a footballer, no matter how hard he tries Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearer9 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I was amazed the way we kept our shape, it was clearly a 4-5-1, but it wasn't a boring negative formation, we still went for it. We always had at least 8 or 9 behind the ball, 11 on set pieces, fantastic. Also brilliant to see Given back to his best, making reaction saves, scrambling across goal to stop Scholes, diving low to his right, and also coming out to deal with several really tricky crosses, I'm really chuffed about Given now for the season!!

Wullie Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Taylor played really well. I probably don't need to say that I thought Duff was our worst player. When I see him play, I'm somehow reminded of a line from Mark Kermode's review of Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - "Nothing happened. I mean, a bunch of stuff happened but nothing actually happened."

morpeth mag Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Thought the game showed we need a left back and a central midfielder. Interesting to see if Enrique plays against Bolton. i thought we needed two CM before today but was impressed with Guthrie. Duff was OK but is a squad player now. Anyone know why Cacapa didn't make the bench? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he had a paticularly good game, but he was decent. No bottle? I'm sorry mate but shut-up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said in the pre-match thread that once the season proper started that Duff would disappear up his own arse as usual. He buzzed around looking busy but the few times he got the ball on the break he bottled it and faffed around allowing Man u to get back and re-group. Enrique in, Duff out next match please.
