Lenny Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I considered myself a fan of his until recently but Shelvey has been rubbish this season. Contributed nothing. He’s been the only player with speed of thought to get a pass off today. Very strange timing, this comment. Wrong. Lush post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mofo Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Sorry but this is embarrassing, I get they are a great team and we are a s*** team, but for 35 or so minutes it was like we weren’t even on the pitch. At least have a go, I’d rather lose 10-0 trying than 3 or 4 not trying. It’s awful stuff. They have a responsibility to all those paying to have a go and at least compete. This is not a way I want to see us play again ever, it goes against the whole meaning of playing a game of football and certainly against my own ideals. It stinks and I’m not buying it just because there is this gulf in class. Oh what have we become! Totally agree can’t see why others can’t see this If it was 0-0 at half time would you still be saying this? Rafa obviously had a plan, unfortunately it didn't work. Let's see what the 2nd half brings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 We clearly changed the game plan after their goal and that was heartening to see. I expect to see some changes at half time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing 10-0 would do wonders for the brittle confidence of this squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I hate saying this but this is the Pardew tactic of keeping them out and staying in the game until the last quarter. And why not, they're brilliant and not fucking Southampton or Stoke like Pardew used try it on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Day Gadgie Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Ignore Neville. He's just frustrated the noisy neighbours are running away with the league, and he probably hates Rafa from his time at Liverpool aswell so he'll do his best to stick the knife in.

triggs Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Atmosphere is stinking at the game. FIFA has fucked people's knowledge of the game.. Ridiculous to expect fans to create an atmosphere watching that. I think they've actually been good.

Bimpy474 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Carragher can fuck off as well, scouse prat. Making a broader point about the league tbh, don't find much wrong with it. I know, i just wanted his scouse face to just fuck off, i've got the sound off so i've no idea what the snotrag is going on about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck off, I would, because to me playing football is about competing. I can accept any loss by any margin if we try, but we have not tried at all. It was embarrassing, a non league side wouldn’t sit 11 men behind the ball and literally have a handful of touches on the ball. We are Newcastle United at home and we should never ever play this way regardless of who we are playing or how shit we are. They are a great team, but they are not 11 tucking superman’s. We are basically forefeiting the game and that’s not on. And before anyone starts I accept how great they are, how shit they are and there is no one as big a fan of Rafa as me, but I will never accept this. This isn’t football, this is fucking surrender. What was the flag the other week, Newcastle United will never be defeated? Ha, fucking mockery of that particular banner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Considering the squad we have got and the team that Man City have got, I think we are doing pretty bloody well to only be 1 goal down here. It’s not pretty at all but I do think we could nick something. Aarons almost scored but for a great bit of defending. Believe! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 This was the right way to setup. They would be 4-0 up if we just went for it. Better to stay in it and keep score down.

Toonjam88 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Rafa was trying the rope a dope didn't work now let's see what happens but I don't see the point of going radge then getting beat 8-0. Also Carragher saying the league is becoming embarrassing due to teams defending against the top 6. Well when you have teams spending £75 million on a centre half that is playing in a struggling Southampton team and managers are just one loss from the sack what are you supposed to do. Sky sports need to have a look at themselves and see what they have done to this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hog Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 How is it embarrassing to be 1-0 down at half time? This is against a team that scores goals for fun, imagine the embarrassment if we lost 10-0, how much damage would that do mentally to the team, how much damage would that do to our goal difference? We don't have a team that can play attacking football against this lot, the best we can hope for currently is try to stop them scoring and possibly nick a counter if the chance arises. Calling for some weird ass plan of just throwing caution to the wind is plain mental Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
