OCK Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Man, I didn't realise so many people didn't rate Matt Ritchie. I like him, he not be world class, but he's what we need. Has a bit of quality, tries hard, seems to give a shit, and I've seen bollock players around him for not helping him press. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakey jake Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 We need this guy to have as good as if not better season than last. Atsu, Murphy and Kenedy are not upto it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 I thought he was fairly poor but there were far, far worse performances out there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Man, I didn't realise so many people didn't rate Matt Ritchie. I like him, he not be world class, but he's what we need. Has a bit of quality, tries hard, seems to give a shit, and I've seen bollock players around him for not helping him press. That sums it up for me. He'll never be my favourite player, nor will I ever expect to see him do something amazing with the ball, but I want him to be playing most games this season. The leadership he brings is crucial, as well as setting the expectations and tactical discipline so high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkeye Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 In the second half on Saturday when Perez number came up for him to be subbed for Muto Richie just walked off and sat down on the bench, is that even allowed by the rules of the game? Perez stayed on obviously but, even the announcer didn't correct the substitution after he has said Perez replaced by Muto..... Kind of odd.... Guess he was just knackered and felt it was better if he stepped out of the game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiedean Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I don’t think he’s good but he’s one of our better players at the moment This says it all at where we are as a club at the moment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 4th official just puts up what Muto tells him. Maybe a language issue? Ritchie and Perez seemed to know and Rafa didnt stop it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I imagine it was written down by one of our coaches and given to the 4th official and he thought 11 was 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 If the wrong number went up and Ritchie already knew it was him then doesn't that imply the sub was pre-planned? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I imagine it was written down by one of our coaches and given to the 4th official and he thought 11 was 17 Yes.

joeyt Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 On the other hand I've noticed that this season that there are at least 2 fourth official boards being used in the dug outs. Not sure if the coaches are expected to type in their subs then give it to the fourth official Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkey Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 about the dispute with Lascelles - https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/matt-ritchie-gives-side-story-15181278 best quote: “I’ve been the same player since day one. Jonjo Shelvey will say to me, ‘Matty, please, just for today will you not shout?’. i'd forgotten how bad the chronicle site is so here's the article: Matt Ritchie says that he and Jamaal Lascelles were on speaking terms within 20 minutes of their training ground discussion last month. The Scotland winger, speaking to the Daily Express, has revealed he is a vocal character during practice sessions with the Magpies . Ritchie said: “We had a difference of opinion and a discussion about it – a lively discussion! “Jamaal and I are two of the more vocal characters, very similar in the way we train and conduct ourselves. “It was something which got overheated but it was nothing personal and 20 minutes later, everything was fine.” Ritchie, though, feels his encouragement at the club’s Benton base is never taken the wrong way. He said: “The lads know me. “I’ve been the same player since day one. Jonjo Shelvey will say to me, ‘Matty, please, just for today will you not shout?’. “I’ll try it for 10 minutes but more often than not, I’ll fail. “Sometimes they just ignore me and are thinking, ‘Just shut up’ but it doesn’t stop me because it makes me demand levels from myself.” “I’ve always been loud, always been vocal. “It’s just my personality and I’ve never been one to shy away from voicing an opinion. “I like to think I am honest and open with those around me and if you are demanding the highest standards from team-mates, your own standards have to be right up there as well.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Sick of this cunt. Championship player living off his Championship season. He has to be 'Mr Newcastle' to take the glory. He can't and/or won't cross the ball. What he will do though is cut inside, ignore players in better positions who he could pass too, try and beat 1 CB, then if he's done that he'll either take one of his shots or will try to beat the next CB who has closed him down, again ignoring other players in better positions to pass too, and if he's done that he'll take a shot unless he's been push too far wide in which case he'll come back inside again until he's lost the ball. He a selfish bastard who is unwilling to pass the ball. he gets away with it though because in the Championship he was good enough to get away with it and once every so often one of his shots will find the net. It's easier for people to count the goals he's scored for us then it is to count the ones he's cost us. A fucking fraud who's head drops way too easily.

Happinesstan Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Absolute horseshit. I do think, however that his influence might not be having the positive impact that his attributes should provide. When players are lacking confidence, he can probably compound things. Just another symptom of Ashley's ownership, and in no way a slur on Ritchie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 He's not really suited to counter attack football that's the problem. He's a model professional but gets exposed out wide because he hasn't got the legs to cover a lot of ground quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
