Newcastle United 2-2 Chelsea - 26/9/15 - Post match reaction from p. 32


Recommended Posts

We were so bad going forward in the second half. Had so much space to counter and time and time again we played s**** passes or got tackled in great positions

 

Just what happens isnt it if you're going to spend an entire half sitting back. When they do get the ball they wont be full of confidence because they've not touched it for a while & are aware they wont be touching it for another while. Cue loads more pressure to do something, cue messy passes. Cue poor decision making.

Very disappointing to lose that and totally undeserved given the performance.

 

Fucking awful that at the end though, it's actually soured it for me - defending a point at home? Nah that's not the way Newcastle United go about things.

 

That's it really. It's not the NUFC way to play it safe. We're not down to 10, or even 9 men (this time). Why not have a go? It's what the club is about. It's not some "rather lose 3-4, than win 1-0" shite either before anyone says it :lol:

...it kind of is like. :lol:

 

It's really not.

Drawing 2-2 from 2-0 up,

Defending the entire 2nd half,

Low on confidence,

Absolutely nackered,

Mitrovic not on the field,

Against Chelsea who have been getting chances,

Ramires and Hazard on the break.

1 minute left.

 

vs

 

Our 1 goal from 1 chance from a corner.

 

Howeh, it's not beyond the realms of common sense to take the positives in that situation and run.

 

I understood and disagree with your point on why you'd have held out for a 2-2, but that isn't what the "4-3, 0-1" shite represents IMO. That "4-3, 0-1" concoction is patronising horseplop.

It fits in with the whole attacking no matter what the circumstances 4-3 1-0 thing imo.

 

I'd rather win and risk losing as a consequence is the same as I'd rather lose entertainingly than win in a boring manner? I disagree again. Off out so will leave it at that.

I think I'm thinking of it more in terms of the mentality rather than that scenario specifically.

mourinho complaining about atkinson  :lol: :lol:

 

Tbf he is a pile of shite.

Definitely. Dunno if I mentioned this but Pedro should have been off imo.

 

Dive - free kick to Chelsea.

Dive - no decision.

Tackle from behind - no decision.

Foul - yellow card.

Pissed off we didn't hold on like.  Attack is the best form of defence, and we sat deeper and deeper that second half. We had them if we'd believed a bit more.

 

Ok we converted the one chance we had, but we can still only stick in one good half of football a game.  I don't know if that's down to fitness or mental strength, but it's fucking shockingly bad over so many seasons.

 

Write off the next game, but Norwich and the Mackems are must wins if ginger bollocks wants to prove the doubters wrong. If we fuck up? He can fuck off.

A tumultuous effort out there today, we just ran out of steam towards the end. Chelsea didn't deserve anything from that but we remain unbeaten at home by Jose which will piss him off! Fancy we could do the same to City next week. We just need to be able to turn the screw like that against the lower teams.

 

Let's hope this is a turning point and not another Manyoo game.

Good performance and deserved to win, 2 poor errors first from Janmaat and then the brain dead Sissoko fouling them on edge of box when facing away from goal and then does the same thing 5 mins later to gift them another free kick. He was awful today and is incapable of dribbling around a player! Defeatist attitude to keep the ball in corner in last minute of injury time when we had a corner and should of tried to win it!

Refresh my memory...what did Janmaat do wrong? I must have missed that.

Chelsea player mis controlled the ball and Janmaat should easily of got there in lead up to goal. Re acted slowly. I like him and is great going forward but gets caught out a lot defensively.

I thought he could have got that too tbh, but towards the end of the match I guess he was a bit sluggish.

Ahhhh, when Hazard took that weird touch? To me it looked like good play from Hazard that caught him on the back foot, but I'd need to see it again.

Aye i saw that as a good touch actually. Its clever from Hazard to get it on the wrong side of Janmaat instantly & he just couldnt turn quickly enough.

 

The bigger issue would be why it made it to Hazards feet from a long ball.
