Ryan_Taylor Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Their formation is ensuring they're seeing plenty of the ball. We're carrying Nolan in the middle too meaning they've got at least one extra man free all of the time. If they find the right through ball on the break we're gonna struggle here. Jose struggling for pace today against Elmo Seriously, what does Ameobi actually do in this system? Link up well with AC and score goals? Simpson needs to stop that. He can't give them space and wait for Barton to track down and take that. Put pressure on the player and let Barton cover behind him. Will cost us a goal at some point in the season with a good cross coming in. thats not a pen for me but do i care? I would book a trip to specsavers, clear penalty SO. MUCH. FAIL. in that post its actually unreal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I think what I love about it most is that in most other matches, we'd all e raving about how mint ALL of the back four were, how Jonas was a constant threat, and Tiote was a beast, but even with their quite frankly excellent performances, they've barely been mentioned because of how outstanding Barton, Nolan, Ameobi and Carroll were. Williamson was probably the player least in the spotlight, but if you watch it back, he was still almost flawless. Just fucking excellent all-round from everyone. So proud of all of them. was very pleased for Williamson, particularly as his name seemed to be linked to the Arsenal result which I thought was somewhat unfair.

Scoreboard82 Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Sholas second was brilliant, probably the best of the five as it came at him with pace and could have gone anywhere. I agree. It seemed to take an eternity to come back off the bar, but was just waiting to be hit. Don't think Shola could have connected better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Ah hindsight, ain't it great. That, or the ability not to propagate lazy stereotypes in an effort to appear to have a knowledgable viewpoint. In fairness to Minhosa, after that howler, he did come up with some pretty accurate gems later on in the thread - which makes me think he's not an idiot who can't see what's actually happening on the pitch (so his Nolan post is even more mystifying).

alexf Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Jose struggling for pace today against Elmo actually agreed with this one. first time ive seen someone knock it past jose and him struggling to recover, happened twice in the early moments. Was surprised they took that guy off for gyan but jose would have inevitably dominated him anyways even if he'd stayed on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right though. throughout the game Jose would have had him. I think Jose was looking to get forward a lot so was leaving space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I agree Jose did at first look a bit concerned by the pace of El Mohamady, I was pleased when Bruce brought him off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Five o Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Holy fucking fuck! What a match to come over for I cant tell you how lucky and privileged i feel to be able to watch a match like this, from L7, fucking unbelievable Was at The Strawberry at 0800 or something on Sunday morning, started to get really crowded, great to get a couple of pints before the match The atmosphere at the match was insane, best i have ever experienced, period! So thanks to the near 52000 helping make this a day/night to never forget! Congrats to the people of Newcastle, i know for me as a foreign, its a little easier to accept a draw/lose , as i don`t have to be around the unwashed all the time, but for you, haha, i guess this made the winter months a little better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
