Tiresias Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 too many off target tbh, know being a bit silly to be negative, but have to wonder if any of those could have been turned into better opportunities. We'll regret not working on it against teams we may only get 3 chances at. Regardless pretty fantastic all round Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 As long as we are creating that many chances I am happy, saw Best getting stick for missing too many 'easy' chances today but if he is scoring at the rate he is currently putting them away is this a problem? Pretty saw we aren't the only side to have 21 shots but it's not often team score say 7 (33% of shots) goals in a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Newcastle deserve more credit When Newcastle sacked Chris Hughton last December, everyone tipped them to go down. When they subsequently replaced him with Alan Pardew, everyone tipped them to go down. When January came and Andy Carroll went, everyone tipped them to go down, and the trend continued when Joey Barton, José Enrique and Kevin Nolan were sold in the summer. Newcastle are currently fourth in the Premier League, unbeaten and above Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham. It does not quite herald the return of the days when they could challenge for the title under Kevin Keegan or Sir Bobby Robson and a small squad means Newcastle are unlikely to remain in the Champions League places for long and, despite their lofty position, the cynics still do not quite trust Mike Ashley not to screw it all up eventually. They could well be right but, if the transfer policy of shifting older, more expensive players and replacing them with younger, cheaper models means Hatem Ben Arfa and Yohan Cabaye instead of Barton and Nolan, Newcastle are surely on the right path. Cabaye caught the eye in the draw at Villa last weekend and this week it was the turn of another new signing to win over his new fans. Demba Ba has, surprisingly, been fairly underwhelming since signing from West Ham in the summer but Pardew put that down to the striker observing Ramadan at the start of the season; against Blackburn on Saturday he scored a hat-trick, his first goal a shot that arced beautifully into the top corner. It turns out all he needed was a pre-match meal to find his form: not the first time Blackburn have been done over by food this season. http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/1565/ashleyha.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolution Number 9 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Aye but that's not in the Garry Birtles commentary book. It goes like this; We're losing - We're not good enough We're winning - They're not good enough We're drawing - Neither team is good enough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I'm undecided about Blackburn, their underlying side is pretty shit but they do have a few good players who could keep them in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'm undecided about Blackburn, their underlying side is pretty s*** but they do have a few good players who could keep them in the league. Pretty much my thoughts on the issue. Yakubu will get goals now and then, while contributing fuck all else. Samba and Dann could potentially become a half decent centre back pairing, Hoilett is decent and that Rochina looks canny. 15th at best I reckon.
