Newcastle United vs Reading - 17/08/16 @ 7.45pm - No TV


Recommended Posts

Left side is back to pardew era.

 

It's grotesque. How we expect to provide service from Dummett and Gouffran is beyond me.

 

I doubt we're looking to put crosses in with this strikeforce. We've got Richie and Gouffran in there to cut inside and score 100 goals from range.

Gouffran ahead of Aarons? Really?

 

First thought that went through my mind when I saw it too.

 

Time will tell if Lascelles needed an arm round the shoulder and some encouragement rather that publicly dropping the Captain. I think/hope it will make him more determined due to his own nature.

Even so you would need full backs who can overlap, in fact it's even more important when you line up that way.

well, yes. I'm not going to defend the existence of Paul Dummett, but I don't mind Gouffran. I think he deserves a chance.

While I agree on paper, in the little that I saw of the match on Saturday Aarons was really poor. He ran into the player he was taking on at least twice. But yeah, Gouffran. :anguish:

Players that aren't pulling their weight are dropped, including the captain if needed. Not the best lineup ever and we'll have to see if it works out, but generally this is what we've wanted for years.
