Decky Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 It comes back to signings again. It sounds like we created loads of chances. If we'd gone out and bought a good quality forward we might have been able to take him on to put 1 or 2 of them away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONTEMPI Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 They all need a clout round the lugholes. Irrespective of what the wank stains running the club aren't doing, we should still be better than this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Mike Ashley's early season objectives completed; 1. Lie to Benitez 2. Get knocked out of league cup 3. Divide the supporter base and get some to turn on Benitez 4. Stand back and laugh your tits off after beasting those poor geordies again Some things will never change. Benitez gone by Sept 1st, IMO.

It's probably helped him to become the manager he is today, but you also have to bite the bullet at times and change things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 The problem is, and I argued this last season, is our squad players aren't good enough to win games like that. The likes of Diame and Hanley should be playing for clubs like Rotherham and QPR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Five o Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Rafa pretty much warned us yesterday about the squad and team for this. Focus is PL survival and build from there. Not that I agree with this, but it is what it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Rafa has made a pigs fucking ear of the first 3 games, regardless of how much he's been pissed on from a height this summer. How did he make a pigs ear of the game against Spurs exactly? Was negative shite from minute 1. Well he had it tactically spot on until the sending off. Spurs didn't have any chances, and we we're frustrating them, with the aim being to hit them later on in the game, and then Jonjo got sent off, and that plan went to shit. Maybe Rafa isn't your type of manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 First time we've gone out at this stage in 27 years apparently. Fucking piss poor however you want to cook it. Out at the first attempt to concentrate on being relegated. Always going to happen. The mood is rock bottom thanks to the owner and manager have tit for tat in the press. I doubt the relationship will recover now, only a matter of time before they part ways. On brighter news least it's less chance of being humiliated by drawing the mackems in the next round. Thank god that didn't happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Rafa stated the reasons for the team in his press conference; A, the first teamers are too important given the fact we're going to be in a relegation battle; B, the players we can't give away needed a final chance for us and for them to get the fuck out. I can't argue with those reasons in these circumstances. If this was was the 3rd Round of the FAC, and we had a better equipped squad and we were midtable - I'd be very annoyed with the selection.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I'm pleased the 2 up front argument is back so early into the season Doesnt matter how many people we have up front if we cant defend like. 2 goals at home to Nottingham Forest Reserves should be more than enough.

Disco Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Team picked wasn't good enough; too many unecessary changes for me although I get the argument for doing so. On top of that it sounds like all the goals were down to individual lapses which compounds that further. It's worrying but not terminal, even more imperative that those rested for the weekend make it count now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
