Newcastle United 2-3 Leicester City - 9/12/17 - post match reaction from page 25


Recommended Posts

My favourite part of our matches is when Mitrovic gets his cameo and shows that compared to a certain someone, he can actually play football.

 

Every f***ing time.

[emoji38] aka neither of you watched the match properly and just want to push the Joselu/Mitrovic button regardless of whether the context aligns with it. Joselu and Gayle were the only players that come out with any credibility, both scored and still the Mitrovic fans force out the tears.

 

:thup: This "if only this player would have played instead of that player" is irrelevant and boring as fuck.

Thought Perez, Atsu & particularly Gayle done well today. The rest, meh.

 

:lol:

 

Should've knocked it into Okazaki's legs then fallen the f*** over like he seems to excel at doing at the other end of the pitch.

 

Perez played well man.

 

Haddaway, man. None of them did.

 

It was a shit all-round performance. Some might've been less shit than others but they all looked as clueless as each other.

Dunno if you can blame that on him, the entire midfield went missing he's just trying to make up the ground. okazaki is scoring there anyway

 

If it was FIFA I’d just have cut down Okazaki and gambled on the opponent not knowing how to work the penalty system.

Chill out man, I prefer Mitrovic over Joselu, he's a better player in every single aspect. If you don't like me stating that then that's fine, but maybe stop replying every single time with the same shit.

 

Maybe take your own advice on that front, if you're gonna post then expect replies. Mitrovic isn't going to play, the same points being made isn't limited to his detractors either, both sides have done their points to death. Shoehorning it in after Joselu and Gayle both scored and played well in a match where everyone else was an absolute joke is always likely to get critical posts.

Nah Perez did play well like, you're likely and rightly just too p*ssed off to see it. Gayle was good all game, Perez really good when he came on, and Atsu had a few good moments. Everyone else I agree, s***.

 

But therein it lies, though. He's capable of a half-decent 20 minute cameo only to start the next game or two and be his usual shite self, falling over the ball.

 

He's weak, slow and substantially below the standard that we hope to achieve.

 

Fuck him.

That was Hayden's worst game for us. Why was he so close to the halfway line when the 3rd went in? Really frustrated at how much space they had compared to us. Surely can't all be down to tactics, can it? The worst thing was the constant hoofing to Wes Morgan of all people. Bet he's never had an easier game in the PL.

I thought Joselu and Gayle looked lively up front so it can't have been that easy.

He needs to stay on his feet the fucking pillock, goes to ground far too quickly, mind you merino did a lot tonight as well.

Can't you see the hypocrisy here though? You constantly bang on with your against-Mitrovic agenda, I constantly bang on with my pro-Mitrovic agenda, we're in the exact same boat only I don't feel the need to pull you up on your opinion every single time as you (and 'triggs') do with me. It's tedious man, if you don't like my perspective on the matter then just don't reply to my comments on it, easy. 'Cause you must have replied to the exact same point, with the exact same response at least 4-5 times in the past month. We have two differing opinions on one specific matter, get over it, I did  :lol: :thup:

Positives

Attacked quite well I thought.

Gayle was really lively.

Joselu scored(!) and played okay otherwise.

Murphy continues to improve.

 

Negatives

Sat back too much after the opening goal. It's as though we expect a tough start every week, but do better than expected then don't know what to do so just let the opposition have the ball. At this level they're going to create.

Had literally nothing in centre of the pitch all game, Merino and Hayden worked hard but we were just outmanouvered time and time again.

Centre backs were consistently awful.

Decision-making was absolutely abysmal from start to finish, beginning with the Merino pass that presented them the ball for the first right to the end where we somehow fucked up a brilliant situation to win it. Just took too long every fucking time, I was literally screaming PASS THE BALL by the end. So frustrating.

Darlow had a shitter, none of the goalkeepers are good enough at all.

Benitez took too long to change it, I wouldn't say their second was coming but it always seems that we're behind before subs come on.

 

Overall once again a really frustrating match that was there to be won. But it's another defeat and at the moment it's hard to see where the next win is coming from. Hopefully Lascelles coming back will help solidify us because going forward (when we actually have the ball that is) I think we're improving.

 

By the way Leicester were excellent, as many predicted their pace and movement really hurt us. Mahrez in particular was sensational IMO, we couldn't get near him. Think he got tackled once or something ridiculous.
