Newcastle United 1 - 0 Man United - 11/02/18 - Post-match jubilation from pg22


Recommended Posts

Wow, amazing. What a performance. We fought like absolute animals. Shelvey and Lascelles were outstanding, whilst Dubravka showed he- along with Kenedy- could be the difference to us staying up.

 

Player heroics aside, today showed what an incredible opportunity we have with Rafa as our manager, but most of all it showed what this club can be capable of. It has been so long since we have had a day like today, I genuinely think that our fans have forgotten what it means to be Newcastle United, what it means to play teams at St. James' Park. Today showed that this club is worth fighting every bit for and that we should never give up trying to rid our beautiful club of Mike Ashley. It's incredible to think of the potential we have. This win should be an awakening, not an acceptance of where we are.

I've been in bed all day too, maybe being ill isn't a bad thing if it means results like today.

Just in from the match and can't remember a more agonising final 5 minutes - especially when that ball seem to sick around the 6 yard box. That's arguably the best defensive display we've put in against quality opposition we really limited their chances and given the quality difference on the field it was quite incredible. Offensively I don't think we played particularly well, Gayle and Perez in the first half didn't really look like the believed they were going to get anywhere with what they were trying. I would have preferred Merino over Shelvey pre-match but I don't think he's put a more dominant display in than that. He's got obvious quality with the ball at his feet but that is what he's been lacking and if we're going to stay up he could be a huge part of it with performances like that.

 

I thought it was worth a mention how well Joselu linked up coming on it really took the panic out of our play and Diame had another dominant performance. It's also so nice to have a goalkeeper that actually looks like he isn't going to flap at everything.

That's the Michael Caley expected goals. Understat's is pretty similar.

 

Give us the penalty, which XG misses, and it's pretty much even stevens. Mourinho may have passed it off as one those "that's football" games, but they didn't really create that much more than us. They had four chances, the Martial 1 on 1, the Martial double shot, the Sanchez one, where a Yedlin touch forced him wide, and the Carrick toe poke at the end. The biggest chances of the game were Ritchie's, the pen we should have had, and the 1 on 1. They had more possession in danger areas, but we didn't let them create clear chances with it.

 

xG is a load of shite
