Minhosa Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Timewasting like a motherfucker all the time from about 20 minutes onwards. Ref did fuck all about it n all, pathetic all round. So pathetic that it's probably earned us the point. 5 more minutes and they win the game. Don't mind after we go a man down but in the first half? Fuck that, not even Stoke are that bad. Can't say I noticed it in the first half but it was certainly justified in the second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Partly at fault for both goals, but stopped it from being 5 or 6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Krul is an excellent keeper, he's shot to pieces at the minute. Absolutely. He didn't have a great game but when the pressure is constantly on, and when the weather's like that, you can forgive him a slip up here and there. He got no help from any of the ten people in front of him today. I actually said "well in" when he rushed out just before the first goal; what happened afterwards was just a comedy of errors and Krul was unfortunate.

David Icke - Son of God Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Really needs to improve on his kicking. His distribution is fucking awful. If I was Pardew I'd fine him every time he boots it long (other than a GK). Have him releasing the ball quickly to either Santon, Coloccini or Simpson.

Guest firetotheworks Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 His shot stopping is pretty good, his command of crosses is generally good, but his kicking is terrible. His form is shaky at the moment as well. Seriously needs to stop booting it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 For the first goal, it was his decision-making rather than his kicking technique that was at fault. He should have hit the ball into the stands. The second was the sort of spill that even the best keeper will occasionally make. Overall, his shot-stopping was up to its usual good standard.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 If you delivered a high ball as perfectly as possible towards Ba and Cisse, they would still only win it maybe 30% of the time against most CBs. They're just not very good at it. It's the decision to hoof it that's the problem, not the technique. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His kicks often don't even reach as far as Ba and Cisse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weezertron Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Remember when the manager of his national team commented negatively on him kicking it long for us. Doesn't he pass it out a lot more when he plays for them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I do recall those that watched him play for Holland noted he didn't hoof it much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATB Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Can´t get my head around this "Krul is shit he can´t kick". His not. But it´s Pardew that want´s him to do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Nobody is saying that he's shit. His overall game is good but his major weakness is without a doubt his kicking. Not so much of hoofing (tactical or not) nor distance (a fair few direct launches resulting in goals) but rather when he is 'passing' (directional). We've seen him kick the ball to touch, to an opponent or fail to find a teammate leading to opposition pressure. No idea about his long throws but it could be an alternative to releasing the ball early to the flanks for a counter-attack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 One of the reasons for that is that he's got to clueless defenders in front of him who have no idea how to move with the ball so they repeatedly play it back to him. bound to have one or two shit kicks out of each 20+ he takes every game.

LRD Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Not every time, that's a gross exaggeration. We have however seen him send goal kicks straight out of touch (inexcusable) or to an opponent under no pressure more than he should, then hold up his hands to acknowledge his errors.

NEEJ Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 He's got poor technique when he kicks, resulting in him slicing the ball way more than he should. He hasn't improved in that area since he first broke into the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
