AFC Bournemouth 2-2 Newcastle United - 24/02/2018 - post match anticlimax p19

[Klaus]

Disgusting for Bournemouth to pick up anything today. They were awful.

 

Disgraceful from Atsu and Perez not putting that game to bed. Atsu should have taken a shot otherwise should have passed it to Shelvey even earlier, who isn't devoid of blame either.

 

Suppose another away point isn't bad but should have been all 3. Too many games like this this year ffs man..

 

Biggest disgrace was rafa.

 

You wouldn't have posted on here had we won would You?

 

You can barely hide your delight man,  you fat clown. Do yourself a favour and f*** off.

 

Spot on. Wants to f*** off and support the mackems.

 

The bloke is a total dick splash. I bet he gets a serious hard-on everytime one of his clients fails their driving test.

 

:lol:

It's the fact we are keep giving away leads that is a major concern.  That's 3 clean sheets in last 19 league games, we won't win many more games unless we start keeping more clean sheets like we did vs Man Utd.

[Happinesstan]

A valuable point, but not as valuable as the two we threw away.

Chronicle think we won:

 

Newcastle United press conference LIVE - Rafa Benitez's thoughts after Bournemouth win

Welcome to our live blog bringing you coverage of the post-match press conference following the Premier League clash between Bournemouth and Newcastle

[Jayson]

Some are being a bit overcritical here imo, we were brilliant today for the most part and had one of those two chances gone in we would all be elated and praising everyone from manager to players. Yes it's frustrating to not win that - but that's kind of the point - and there's some unduly harsh criticism being dealt out here all things considered.

 

Woah, you don’t wanna come on here posting sense like that after a defeat good away point good performance good tactical performance disgraceful surrender.

 

We're 2-0 up with two clear chances inches from the goal against a side who lost 4-1 in their last game to Huddersfield. I get that it's good to get away points, i'm all for that. Seriously though, if the positives of managing a draw overide your sense of absolutely throwing that away then fair fucking play.

[polkaDot]

At least Defoe didn't score.

Before the game, most people were happy with a point? What’s changed?

 

Aye, we were leading the game and comfortable, but we still got the point that everyone thought would be so good? Is it a bad point now? Do we not want it?

 

It’s another point towards the total we need, in a game where we probably didn’t expect any. We’re still in good form (which people seem to forget) and we’ve got a relatively easy run-in compared to our rivals.

 

We need what? 9 points to be on 38 and probably survive. I think people need to step back and look at the bigger picture.

[joeyt]

At least Defoe didn't score.

 

Think I'd rather him than Gosling

[Happinesstan]

It seems quite clear that we defend better when our attackers focus on attacking.

[mighty__mag]

Rafa subbed that victory away from us. Pathetic.

 

One of the few times I agree with you. People used to go mental when Pardew used to carry out similar approach.

Sick of this moot point.

 

Unfortunately although you want to see the positives of getting a point from a 2-0 lead, the subs were a major factor just as much as the misses,although for me the subs slightly effected how we attacked on the counter so thats why Im leaning toward the blame on the result being down to doing a shut up shop and hanging on for our lives job, when we looked quite comfortable. Ritchie was having a great game, kenedy looked a bit tired but he still offers plenty in terms of attack and creativity.

I'm not seeing the positives from the result today, complete straw man.

 

It's the "if Pardew did that" line. Boils my fucking piss.

 

Is that not something that did happen some seasons ago though? And it wasn't an if. It was he used to do it, and we all fucking got annoyed. It's swings and roundabouts. Either we get a third and then hopefully kill the game or we make poor/negative subs and hang on inviting piles of pressure onto us and walking away with a draw or nearer the end it could have been a loss.

 

 

[St1pe]

Would have taken a point before kickoff yet almost suicidal about getting one at ft. The bottom half of the league is disgustingly close. It looks like every weekend is going to be a pure stress on from now til the end of the season.

The context of the situation changed as the game was being played? The outcome that could then have potential knock on affects due to the way it came about? You obviously have different expectations if you didn't expect any points when they'd lost 4-1 in their last game. Strange when they'd had such good form also.

[Zero]

Without Rafa we wouldn't even get the 2-0 lead.

[Wallsendmag]

Hayden, Atsu, and Manquillo shouldn't be anywhere near a Premier League football pitch. Honestly can't understand why Rafa brought any of them on. We were playing well and looking the most likely to score another before the negative substitutions.

Pardew had far better players at his disposal during his tenure, hence why people would get annoyed.

 

This team has to play this way, Rafa's said so himself. This way would've got 3 points had Shelvey or Perez taken either of their chances.

Yep, unbeaten in nearly 2 and a half months excluding the city games - and playing some good football on the regular now. We seemed to have improved a lot in the last month or so and we are taking the game to teams as we haven't in the past. A shaky 15 minute period shouldn't rule out all of what's going good for us at the moment - as there's lots if you choose to look.

[Guest neesy111]

You can't ignore how regularly we are giving away leads though.

 

Palace, Burnley and now Bournemouth we've given away leads and 2 of them were late leads which we had past 80 mins.  We'd be almost safe if we had won 2 of those 3.

I would never agree those subs are good ideas and didn't cost us the game.

[polkaDot]

Anyone know if Dubravka was at fault for either of their goals?

[Sima]

Anyone know if Dubravka was at fault for either of their goals?

 

Neither imo.

[Zero]

Anyone know if Dubravka was at fault for either of their goals?

He got no chance for second. First one is a gamble and he lost it. Some may argue he didn't need to gamble.

[Guest reefatoon]

Fuck the result, I am still giddy we scored twice in one game.

What do you mean a gamble? He never moved because the ball was moving all over.

So Perez and Shelvey's misses didn't cost us the game, it was all down to the subs?

[Guest firetotheworks]

Not at fault for either. A combination of Shelvey and Perez's misses, substitutions not working out, and the team once again collectively shitting itself in the last 10 minutes did it.
