Mole_Toonfan Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Well this should calm the Aarons cries. Think we need to take things slow with him tbh. Tbf it was only because Obertan was playing instead of him I personally don't have a problem with him coming off the bench as an impact player if the two wide players are Perez and Thauvin. But Obertan instead of him? nah that's BS and should never happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Just happy De Jong got a full 90 in, and came through it. Really looking forward to him catching up on his fitness. He is quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 thauvin and janmaat had a great partnership going on and not just because they both have floppy hair and yellow boots. thauvin burned their left back on the outside which was really promising because I was worried he was just going to constantly cut inside. played some lovely cross field balls too. has to start on Saturday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Darlow 6 - Nothing to do but some very good punches second-half. Janmaat 8 - Too good for Northampton, good link-up with Thauvin and then Toney. Could have scored 2. Haidara 6 - Steady Williamson 7 - Would have been a 6 but for the goal and a brilliant header from under his own bar to steer it on top of the net Lascelles 6 - Few shaky moments Tiote 6 - Shocking tackle for the yellow. Looked a shade of the player 4-5 years ago Gouffran 6 - Nowt wrong, nothing good. Meh. Aarons 6 - The big let down on the night for me, expected more. Hopefully a few sub outings to get him up to speed. De Jong 7 - Has a good ability to bring players into play with his head. Seems a simple skill but his cushioned headers into team mates are a big part of him Thauvin 9 - He is going to be a hero here. Fans will love him. Perez 6 - Did ok, nothing special.

Dave Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/aug/25/florian-thauvin-sparks-newcastle-to-4-1-victory-over-northampton? Some Newcastle players had come over more than a little slapdash but one was exempt from criticism. Thauvin is supposed to be less effective on the right than the left but you would never have guessed it. Virtually every time he touched the ball Northampton, and their left-back David Buchanan in particular, were left bewildered and St James’ bewitched. Encouragingly, the shimmies and stepovers were underpinned by real incision. With the bulk of Newcastle’s chances created by the young Frenchman, De Jong twice came close to extending the lead before half-time. In Adams, Northampton had a creator of their own and he did as much as anyone to keep the tie alive. Thauvin though simply refused to permit himself to be upstaged, something he emphasised by creating Newcastle’s third goal for the overlapping Daryl Janmaat, whose right- foot shot effectively extinguished the visitors’ hopes. Thauvin, who else, created the fourth, headed in by Williamson, from another free-kick before receiving a standing ovation as he was replaced by Alexsandar Mitrovic.

GeordieT Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Could wax lyrical about Thauvin and Janmaat. Great to watch down that right hand side. Thought Perez was excellent as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Just got in, first match I've been to for a while. Impressed with Thauvin, looks real quality, him and Janmaat were a cut above down that flank. Centre backs both looked shaky, Tiote started poorly but got better as the night went on. Perez was canny, couple of lovely mazy runs, but he isn't really cut out to play up top on his own. De Jong had some nice touches but wasn't as involved as I would've liked. Aarons was poor on both flanks, didn't try take his man on at all and his touch was off all night. Gouffran ran about a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto2005 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Why do I bother paying for NufcTV? Who on earth wants to hear a Mike Williamson interview about a 'job well done'.

Ketsbaia Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Just got back from the game - the cash turnstile queues were huge so I missed the first 20 minutes (and three goals). Thauvin had a great time, he'll be class here. Aarons was non-existant, Janmaat superb. Having now seen Mike Williamson score in person, there's another thing to tick off my bucket list!
